Indiana??

I really cant see past the Packers right now TBF. Theyve played a pretty all round game tonight and if they keep it up I can only see the Steelers D having any say about it.

It's impressive. Not that impressive though. The Vikings in 2000 and Patriots 2007 were also much more potent. Definite NFC favourites, it would be great for one of the NFL's marquee franchises to return to glory.

Excellent, excellent win but still a few things to improve. We need to start much quicker, I really cannot remember us doing anything on an opening drive. We always mess it up. We just need to start with easy plays. Secondly our special teams could do with tightening up but that is a by-product of 14 players on IR.

Great performance from A-Rod, of course he isn't good enough to be in the pro-bowl though (and also many on here have put him down this season but now seem to be changing there tune), he completely dismantled them and Starks did enough to keep them honest. You don't get any more clutch than 3 play-off games 12 total TD's. More than any other QB in his first three starts.

Also Tramon was exceptional, but of course he isn't good enough for the pro-bowl either.

I fancy we can have a shot against anybody that is left, and I look forward to playing at Seattle next week.

I wish it was 9.30

I have never been as nervous about any game as I am tonight's!

It's gone from a season with no big expectations to if we lose I will be absolutely gutted!

Brady is awesome and is still the best QB around IMO but there's still some question marks about their D for me. Especially the secondary. I think a good defensive team could be too much for them. I think they will win fairly convincingly tonight though. Next week will be tough.

I agree about our D we are very inexperienced but we have come on a lot in the last few weeks/months, we have had a lot of takeaways, we have beat a lot of the teams that qualified for the play-offs already this year and by some margin in most cases, Belichick is an expert at getting the team ready for the business end of the season usually but we all know what play-off football is like and that's why I am pooping my pants

Like I said earlier at the start of the year and especially when we were turned over by Cleveland there was no great expectations about this season, but now we are in this position we need to take advantage and do something with it

I wouldn't be completely shocked if the Seahawks turned over the Bears either though last weeks performance must have taken a lot out of them.

Rodgers better than Brady. Good one.

Rodgers is excellent but as is often the case Conroy you spoil an otherwise decent post by ejaculating at just the wrong time. You really ought to do a better job as keeping your pants from exploding every time you think of the Packers QB. You should also accept that A-Rod is either a baseball or tennis player.

Any debate on the issue would be futuile because we don't agree. You won't change my mind and I won't change yours.

Anything Brady does Rodgers can do just as well or better and he is equally as much a leader of his team. Brady has more SB rings sure and Rodgers will eventually get his whether that is this year or not but that does not change how good a player he is NOW.

Despite which that was not the intention of my post more to counter the fact that DAR130 seemed horrified that Aikman wanted Rodgers over Brady.

Heart says Seahawks tonight, head say Bears. Lance Briggs missed the game earlier in the season and he is the player I fear most, he makes such a difference to their whole defense.

If the Seahawks can get to Cutler again they can win it. I think last week was our Superbowl sadly.

NFL countdown on now on ESPN America for those interested

I really honestly think the Seahawks will get another win tonight. They seem pretty decent on offence but it is all about D. Cutler is erratic at the best of times and I think they can get to him enough to cause some problems. Going to the Seahawks next week would be good but part of me really wants to go to Soldier Field for a big rivalry game (not been one since 1941) and have the honour of knocking out the 1, 2 and 3 seed.

The Patriots are going to dismantle the Jets and I really think Belicheat will run up the score. Some of the stuff they have been saying is ridiculous (Cromartie and Bart Scott) so I hope they fall flat on there faces. They are the most arrogant obnoxious team in the league and they need taking down a peg or two. They only talk so much rubbish because they are the poor relation in New Jersey trying to make a name for themselves.

Great win for the packers last night, Baltimore well and truly blew it. A strange feeling about the pats game, maybe a bit closer than some think.
Hoping for a seattle win, hence imo easier for the packers to get to the SB and win me a bit o' dosh.
