Yup, everything Neal said, plus if I see that Wendy's commercial with the guy eating the microscopic $2.99 value meal one more time I'm going to rip my ******* hair out.

It's no worse than the "this is our country" commercials for Chevy.  Is it possible to have one ******* commercial break during an NFL game without that?  Please?  Come on ... I don't ask for much .....

Whoa boy.  Romo won't be forgetting that fumbled snap anytime soon.  Watching Gramatica skip through that fumbled hold and then try to block someone like 3 times his size while Romo tried to scamper off with the rock was somewhat amusing though.

Today, zero predictions right.  Tomorrow, twice as many! ( 0 x 2 =  ;) )

Last year to gear up for the COlts the Steelers practiced in their practice facility with giant speakers blaring music.  You could hear it pretty well outside the building actually if you were driving by...  It is definitely something you have to consider and the Steelers had some experience with it in the regular season that they carried over into their prep for the Colts then.

Peyton Manning though...what the **** happens to him in the playoffs?  Wow, he just sucks ass.  Should be fun watching him play the Ravens D ::)

Yeah, that should be fun..considering the colts won the last three meetings..against ravens teams with similar defenses...and the colts had their same QB and offense basically.

On that note, surprises from day one is why I still watch pro football. Was delighted to see the colts stuff the run then have a huge game on the ground themselves- that's all players need -to be sick of hearing being downplayed that their defense sucks against the run..ect..was fun to see how they responded, how embarassing for Larry, I loved it.

I also relished TO's only 2 catches too, that was a stuff as well. Especially liked his critical drop of a third down pass right in his hands-sums up the year for that jerk--as I've said before he's dropped passes all along in his year..What?, So this year the media blames his finger?Pfft ::). As many times as Dallas passed to him this year could  just imagine how many (Ooohh) TD's he could have scored without the drops ::). I noticed TO jawing at his QB(no surprise) to not put so much air under the ball after a lobbed pass by Romo to TO was caught up to and knocked away by a defender on another third down attempt.

Anyway, I figured the Dallas/Seattle game would be close considering the 2 teams struggles lately-just glad Dallas blew it since I hate them ;D-trust it made my day. I'll be shocked if Tuna AND TO are on Dallas next year, we'll see. While I have no love loss for seattle as well...I will now be rooting against them too.

I was overall impressed by my teams' year. No, they didn't make the playoffs but they made the division leaders look like chumps and won more games than the prior two years combined :). While they lost twice to the lowly Cardinals the last 2 years, the cardinals fired they're coach so we should be ready for them next year now.

To pick who I want in the super bowl I want New Orleans in and anyone but San Diego in--though it would be nice to watch a classic Marty blunder in the Superbowl
and lose, that would be fun.

3.5 out of 4 for me.

(I'm claiming half a point for changing my Colts pick 4 minutes into the first quarter). :)

Is it too early to make predictions for next weekend?

If not, here are my picks:

Ravens
Eagles
Bears (only out of loyalty) (Grossman will start, Griese will play 2nd half)   :P
Chargers

Wow, you think grossman's on a short leash too?

mine--

Saints
Bears--really the Grossman factor makes it close in my mind-but I'll go with the Bears defense/ST advantage
Colts--will it be 4 in a row over Ravens--it's my take(Ravens look good-but, until they beat Colts it's my pick)
Chargers

Oh hell, I'll play along.  Unless I get all four games wrong, I won't fare any worse than Matt did last week.
 ;D

Bears over Seahawks
Saints over Eagles
Chargers over Patriots
Colts over Ravens

Honestly, I felt both the NFC games were a tough pick(the eagles have been hot) but I had to pick nonetheless.

Well, I'm sure there will be an upset, and I don't know which game it's going to be, so I gotta pick the 4 bye week teams:

Chargers
Ravens
Saints
Bears
