I really wish the Cowboy game wasn't at night. I totally expect them to get close and then lose again; I just wanted it to be during the day when there are fewer people watching. I kind of like to keep my pain and humiliation as private as possible.

And even if they do win; they'll probably play Seattle in the first round and get blown out by half time.

Texans gonna lose.

[X Factor 1,112]

Texas got as good a chance as any other to go to the superbowl.

Got that right.

Got that right.

It looked like they had the #1 seed locked up a couple of weeks ago now they are #3. Anyway, it looks like the road to the Super Bowl goes through Denver. They are almost unbeatable at home. It would be nice to see them get knocked out.

From the start of the season, I said this will be Brady's last Superbowl. Nothing I've seen so far has changed my mind - Peyton or no Peyton.

One note - congratulations to Adrian Peterson, who fell 9 yards short of the all-time single season rushing record, after coming back from a horrendous injury. Well played AP. Good luck in the post season.

Texans suck.

Denver is on fire now. Hopefully the two week layoff cools them off. In the past Peyton hasn't done well with a first round bye. Of course I don't have a lot of faith in the NE defense either. You never know which one is going to show up.

Keep the faith.

I hate the Manning's more than the Texans.

If you cannot rely on the defense, plan on scoring more points than you concede.

To whit - the Gronk is back.

I'm glad Gronk is back. I don't know what Edleman's condition is since his concussion. And Ninkovich needed help walking off the field today. The problem is that a good defense can hold the Pats scoring down. Our defense has given up the most plays of 20+ yds in the league. I think the number is 70+.

I say that Manning takes Brady in Denver.

You do know the Cowboys.

Hopefully, we'll get to find out.

But in QB vs QB match ups, Peyton has to have that niggling feeling in the back of his mind that Brady is the Batman to his Joker.

[spookyturtle 9,466]

I'd like to see the Pats win, Denver lose and the AFC Championship game in Foxboro.

On a lighter note, is this the "bloodiest" day in NFL coaching history?
