Well, the wild card weekend is over, and I can say that I am rather pleased with the outcomes of all four games. Except maybe Seattle vs. New Orleans, though I didn't really care either way.
It's only slightly surprising to me that Seattle won that game, though; they've been pretty awesome all year at home, and won some games that they perhaps had no chance in hell winning on the road. And... next game's on the road at Chicago. I think they're toast. I think. Although who really thought they'd beat New Orleans, honestly? Heard that Marshawn Lynch had a huge running play in the game yesterday. Think I should link it... here.
...lol! Holy shit! That was the first time I actually saw that just now. He shoved that guy like 5 yards forward in front of him! That was awesome.
I didn't see any of the Jets vs. Colts game, but I hear they won by one point. Suck it, Peyton. Also, glad to hear that LT is still kickin' ass (why did the Chargers ever get rid of him?)
Saw the last quarter of the Ravens vs. the KC Chiefs, because I slept in today. Not really a lot to say about that, although I noted all the fighting, and I note that the last KC game I watched versus Oakland also had a lot of fighting. I thought it was Oakland, but man... one play that was well over, a KC defensive player was guiding Todd Heap around by his helmet, like he was trying to pull it off. No flag. Just a warning to both coaches that players would start to get ejected. Bull. That referee was right there to see that happening. That player should've been thrown out. But anyway; hope TJ Houshmandzadeh gets to go to the Super Bowl this year; that'd be awesome.
Finally, the only game I watched in its entirety... Packers vs. Eagles. Packers never trailed... although they gave me some heart attacks. Fifteen, to be precise. ESPECIALLY THAT FUCKIN' DROPPED PASS AT THE END OF THE FIRST HALF THAT WOULD'VE BEEN A SURE TD, DAMNIT!! ...ahem. Good game, though. Unless you're an Eagles fan. Just like last week, they went down to the wire. And just like last week, the defense came up with a big interception to end the game. And then the postgame show happened, and while they were interviewing Aaron Rodgers-while he was in mid sentence-Desean Jackson ran up and patted him on the chest. Rodgers was like, "-Oh hey buddy-" and then continued his original train of thought. I lol'ed, because they played together at Cal. Wish I could find a video of it, but that's not up yet. EDIT Here is it is:
As for the games next week... Seattle is gonna get eaten by Chicago, who ate them earlier this year (or was that one of the games Seattle won that I didn't think they should? Don't remember.) They always play crappy on the road. Then the Jets vs. Patriots... eh, sorry Pete. I think the Pats got this one, unless the Jets really dig deep for redemption from earlier this year. Steelers vs. Ravens.... probably Steelers. The Ravens are a great team this year, but I think the Steelers are better. I think they beat the Ravens both games they played this year, right? So yeah. Sorry TJ. Packers vs. Falcons... maybe it's because I'm a Green Bay fan, but I really see them winning this one. They played a close game at Atlanta earlier this year that went down to the wire, and they did it without a solid running game. Plus, they're red hot right now. So that's my upset pick, or something. Anyhoo...
Wuv, Yer Mom
