I don't think anyone on the Eagles or the fan base wants him gone. One bad game doesn't make a career, especially if he was battling a personal issue (although that shouldn't be an excuse.) He should have put six more points on the board yesterday, but he's still probably the most consistent kicker in Eagles history.

Oh, and I'm just glad my dad, a diehard Packers fan who went to the game yesterday, didn't rub it in too much. Although it was probably fun being in that stadium yesterday as the enemy. Looking forward to another season with Andy "I've got to do a better job" Reid!

One of those field goals he was totally within his rights to miss. It was 50+ yards in terrible wind.

It was actually only 41, but yeah, the wind was bad. He had the distance on that one, but just pushed it too much. I don't blame him for that one as much, but it would have been nice to start that game up 3-0.

What a weiiiiiiiiiiiird season! Jeez!

But congrats to the Pack. They played an awesome game, and although I predicted the Falcons would advance the furthest in the NFC playoffs it was nice to see their vanilla/consistent gameplay get rocked by the Packers.

I honestly expect a great game with the Packers vs. Bears next week. I would be okay to see either team advance to the Superbowl because I have always been quite impressed with Rodgers and it would make for an offensive Superbowl. He is an awesome hick-douche. I still maintain that the Bears are in over their head a bit, but nevertheless.....

Now let's just see a Jets win.

Ah, but it is the rivalry in the NFL. As far as I am concerned, next week's playoff games are more exciting than the Superbowl will likely be. At least as a Chicago-native. I'm pretty pumped. And like I said, at the end of the day it is a win-win because the Packers are one of the most exciting teams this year, and it would be fun to see Rodgers go to the Championship. At the same time, I can always get behind my home team going to the Superbowl (even though I maintain the Bears are still in over their head. :lol: ).

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em

I am for whoever wins the Bears/Packers matchup to win the superbowl.

I would really hate to see the Steelers or the Jets win.

What Vamp and KG said. I've always been a fan of both franchises historically, so I might watch the game next weekend to see how it turns out.

I want the Packers win, just so Farve can cry himself to sleep even harder.
Plus I've always liked the Packers.

I thought about this, and I think it would be a pretty funny thing if the Packers with the Superbowl the season that Favre retires. Unless of course he comes back next season...which he might.

I like the Packers more now that Rodgers is playing. I think we are going to see some big changes in the NFC North...specifically, I am waiting for the Lions to have an exceptional year.

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em

I now think the Packers have the best chance of winning it all. They have a great defense and the best QB left in the playoffs. That is a recipe for a championship.

All times are GMT -4. The time now is 11:22 AM.
