NFL 2012/13 Playoffs LD

[The 1-2-3 Killam]

With the Wildcard week out of the way, here's what's on the table this weekend:

Things kickoff today with Baltimore and Denver in a game I'm really looking forward to. Denver had such a great season, but the story is all about 37-year-old Ray Lewis, in what could be his final NFL game ever. Problem is, Peyton Manning is looking better than ever.

Next up is the game many of us have the most interest in: Green Bay and San Fran, Round II. The 49'ers beat the Pack at Lambeau in the first game of the regular season, but since then both teams have evolved on their way to the playoffs. This is certainly going to be one of the hardest challenges in Aaron Rodgers' career, but if anybody can lead the Pack to victory, it's him. But can his O-Line give him more than 2 seconds to throw a damn football?

Late games only today, it seems. Ravens/Broncos at 4:30pm on CBS, with Packers/49ers at 8pm on Fox.

The O-line is the key to how Rodgers will fare tonight, for sure. The D seems ok since holding Adrian Peterson to only 99 yards last week. From the looks of things, it looks to be another tight game on the horizon. But I got faith in the Pack. They should take care of business.

If Denver & GB win today I'll be very happy

If Denver & GB win today I'll be very happy

I don't think Denver winning should be a problem. Ravens just don't have enough to take them down. Especially with Ray Rice having sudden, inexplicable butterfingers.

GB/SF will be really close, I think. I would stake that the winner will be the NFC Champion.

 

[Lowdown]

I just need someone to knock off Seattle. Since that infamous Monday might game against the Pack, I want them to get beat down. BAD!

 

[Mr Mikey Mike]

What a start for Denver. Trendon Holliday was a great acquisition from the Texans.

 

[Megatron]

I leave for 10 minutes and the Broncos are on the board. And now Baltimore fucks up the kickoff. This looks like it'll be a long game.

 

[Megatron]

Impressive response for the Ravens. Tied game.

And for the record, my picks are
Broncos
Packers
Falcons
Patriots.

 

[Megatron]

Well there's something I didn't expect. Pick 6, Ravens lead.

 

[Mr Mikey Mike]

What a bizarre start to this game.

 

[The 1-2-3 Killam]

Man, this game has been pretty intense. Punk return for a touchdown, but an immediate response by the Ravens with that absolutely gorgeous touchdown pass. Every time the Broncons get on the board, the Ravens fire right back.

Aaaaand there's another TD pass from Manning. Looks like it might come back though. Never mind, no foul. TD Broncos, 21-14. I think it's ridiculous that the team can't have a "group celebration". Have you seen soccer games? Or really,a ny sport of any kind?

Lot of people said Broncos would take this game with relative ease. Ravens putting up a fight like I thought they would.

 

[Megatron]

This game has been crazy.

 

[klunderbunker]

WOW!

 

[hatehabsforever]

Sweet Jesus, did you see that?!!

 

[Megatron]

Holy FUCK! This game is INSANE!

 

[Megatron]

Baltimore's gonna win it now.

 

[KettleFace]

Sweet jesus what a game.

That was a complete Hail Mary from Flacco.

 

[Megatron]

Why Baltimore isn't trying to attack over the top again is beyond me. Let Smith try to burn them again. Haven't stopped the deep passing game all day.

 

[Megatron]

And Manning with the pick. One FG and that's ballgame.

 

[Megatron]

I hope Harbaugh doesn't try to settle right here. Get that son of a bitch as close as possible.

 

[Megatron]

This ain't no chip shot. Not the most creative of playcalling but not surprised it was only 3 runs in a row.

 

[klunderbunker]

There's an upset. I thought that was going wide for awhile there. Ray Lewis gets to keep going.

 

[hatehabsforever]

Holy crap

 

[hatehabsforever]

Now, if the Patriots can take care of their business tomorrow, they'll host the AFC Championship game next week.
