That Ward injury looked insanely serious. How is he fine.

**UmbrellaCorporation** · 01-18-2009, 07:26 PM

Those African kids probably are getting sick of Eagles NFC Champion shirts now.

I mean, over there, the Bills have won 4 Super Bowls too, so at least they have something different to wear on occasion.

**Boomer** · 01-18-2009, 08:14 PM

Joe Flacco is horrible.

**Team Sheep** · 01-18-2009, 08:43 PM

Glad the Eagles are out. So overrated.

**Jesus Shuttlesworth** · 01-18-2009, 09:01 PM

Limas Sweed lowered the boom on Ivy...god damn

Steelers not getting that FG off at the end of the half might come back to haunt them tho...

**UmbrellaCorporation** · 01-18-2009, 09:55 PM

Polamalu just ran it like all the way back.

22 - 14 Steelers, with about 4 and a half left.

Looks like we may get Steelers/Cards.

**UmbrellaCorporation** · 01-18-2009, 10:07 PM

Oh man, I hope McGahee is okay.

He's been wheeled off on a stretcher tied down.

**DrA** · 01-18-2009, 10:08 PM

Where have I seen that before

**Evil Vito** · 01-18-2009, 11:10 PM

Steelers/Cards should be a great one. Cardinals offense vs. Steelers defense = Epic

**Jesus Shuttlesworth** · 01-18-2009, 11:14 PM

Just not a fan of the Steelers, would have much rather seen the Ravens. Oh well

I think McGahee will be alright

**Boomer** · 01-18-2009, 11:22 PM

Sure the Ravens defense is fun to watch, but god Flacco is pedestrian. I know I'm a Falcons homer, but I'm offended that there are people who think he deserves ROTY over Ryan.

I mean Flacco is probably the best QB the Ravens have had since forever, but he's got a hell of a lot more to learn than Ryan.

**Corndad** · 01-19-2009, 12:11 AM

Man both great games today. Being a Lifelong Steelers Fan obviously pretty stoked about the outcomes.

Really happy for Arizona too. Really liked Wiz and Fitzgerald may just have changed my mind today that he is the best WR out there. Maybe it's because Andre Johnson has been done for a while but really really looking forward to the run up to this game. So many story lines.

Arizona's O vs Steeler's Def
Tomlin vs Wiz (the man who looked to be the favorite to get the Steeler's Job after Cowher left)
Alot of Ex Steelers on the Cardinals

Also personal note, went to same smaller college with one of the Starting Offensive Lineman for the Cards so glad he made it.

Should be a great game. I can't wait.

**SammyG** · 01-19-2009, 12:27 AM

I love you Kurt Warner

**Shadow** · 01-19-2009, 12:33 AM

MY BIRD BOWL!

On the plus side we now get a classic superbowl between two top teams. I cannot wait for Feb 1.

**Jesus Shuttlesworth** · 01-19-2009, 12:36 AM

Good thing Brian Westbrook showed up rushing the ball with 2.3 yards per-carry for the post-season...Sure this is gonna be McNabb's "fault" though

**Evil Vito** · 01-19-2009, 10:05 AM

I really can't wait till next year when the Pro Bowl is between the Championship game week and the Super Bowl...as meaningless as it might be, at least it'll give me football to watch in that week off. Hate it.

I dunno, they threw all 4 downs during the key drive in the 4th where the could have come back to tie it. McNabb had 4 overthrows. I'd say it pretty much was his fault.

**McLegend** · 01-19-2009, 10:41 AM

I'm not gonna say anything right now.

**DaveWadding** · 01-19-2009, 10:50 AM

Where's Johnny Vegas? All that shit talking he did...

**McLegend** · 01-19-2009, 10:56 AM

It is his fault, but at the same time it's not. So really hard.

He missed like 5 throws in the first half that would have drastically changed the game. Then was godlike in the 2nd half making plays that only he can make. Then he overthrows Desean Jackson across the middle on the final drive. Then the last play which should have been caught even though it was clear Pass Interference. Unlikily you are getting that call though. It still should have been caught.

Eagles defense couldn't stop Steven Hightower who couldn't convert short yardage downs all year, and the Eagles stopped both Jacobs and Ward who are both better then Hightower in basically the same situation last week. Then they couldn't bring Hightower down on the 2 which then would have forced them to kick a field goal.

I mostly blame the Defense, but McNabb left a lot of points on the field even though he also great at the same time. It's a tough call.

**McLegend** · 01-19-2009, 10:59 AM

I changed my mind.

**McLegend** · 01-19-2009, 11:22 AM

Cardinals Offensive Coordinator was brilliant too.

Great game plan.

**SammyG** · 01-19-2009, 02:23 PM

Loved Spags' press conference. No bullshit kinda guy.

**ClockShot** · 01-19-2009, 02:33 PM

Rex Ryan looking like the new Jets coach right now.

Anybody hear any news on Gruden?

**KingofOldSchool** · 01-19-2009, 02:47 PM

According to the Baltimore Sun, "word around the NFL" is that the Cowboys are targeting impending free agent Ray Lewis and are willing to guarantee him $25 million in a three-year contract.

**parkmania** · 01-19-2009, 02:56 PM

Anyone else think that Jerry Jones is constantly trying to out-Steinbrenner Steinbrenner?

He just keeps spending money on the "best of the best" and getting no titles out of it. I laugh my ass off. Hope he goes broke.

**RoXer** · 01-19-2009, 03:16 PM

Steven Hightower

Fuck Jerry Jones is never going to learn. Maybe he should throw a couple of hundred million at Dan Marino to come out of retirement. Or Lawrence Taylor?

I wonder what Barry Sanders is doing? Steinbrenner was always bad, but Jones is a joke with no punchline.

**Gonzo** · 01-20-2009, 01:18 AM

Yeah, really shaping up to be the NY Yankees of the NFL.

**D Mac** · 01-20-2009, 01:20 AM

Yeah they are not "America's team".

**Shadow** · 01-20-2009, 01:37 AM

So who's Jones gonna go after if the Lewis deal falls through? Gonna go reanimate a few dead players?

**Jesus Shuttlesworth** · 01-20-2009, 01:39 AM

I think you guys are overreacting a bit here.

I don't think its that off base. Its pretty evident Jones is buying players to win a championship now. Daniel Snyder did it for years in Washington with the biggest FA on the market each year, and the Redskins have still been mediocre over that time span.

RP · 01-20-2009, 11:36 AM

I hope Indy gets Ray Lewis and moves him to outside LB . Just because.

**SammyG** · 01-20-2009, 12:36 PM

Ray Lewis will be a Ram

**Gonzo** · 01-20-2009, 12:50 PM

I can't see him leaving Baltimore. He has been the anchor of that defense for so long. He can still play at a high enough level that the Ravens should keep him.
