The Falcons bandwagon will need reinforcing this week.

Its always good to see ringless teams go deep in the playoffs (except the Eagles lol).

That being said people in the NFC south would disagree with you, Carolina and NO fans will be death riding Atlanta.

No comments on that holding call on Fisher?

ZJ eerily quiet haha

it was a hold though. He hooked Harrison and brought him down, that's getting called EVERY time. If he's not held, Harrison probably gets the sack or at least impacts the throw. But it's a hold

Not Mo Claiborne level holding but holding none the less

This as someone who stood to win $1400 of $10 if it was a Cowboys-KC SB

Had to record the games. Finally games that felt like playoff games even if the chiefs were a little over their heads. Still they never gave up. Just needed to hold this passes.

Apologies to Raiders and Cowboys fans. They were dooned as soon as I had the bright idea they might meet in the SB. Still it'd make good build to the SB given their history. Carr Vs Prescott - yes please, playing behind those lines.

I think we've got the form teams in the Championship games.
Don't mind who wins the NFC championship. I'll be cheering for the winner in the SB regardless.

Oh well, good future with the squad, good game to GB.
Hopefully Chiefs can knock off Steelers and Patriots, cause of the prospect of either of those in the SB is nauseating.

We needed the Raiders not to fall apart with injuries at the end of season.

Patriots and Steelers really have had the softest runs into the AFC Championship. Hopefully that means a SB loss for the AFC winner and I usually support the AFC in the SB. Just fed up with the same teams making it in the AFC as are a few of us it seems.

I'm tipping Steelers-Packers SB. The two hottest teams in the league. The Pats struggled more than they should have against Osweiler, and I dunno but I just don't think the Falcons have enough big game experience to beat the Packers

Do the Steelers have a good enough pass rush to worry Brady like the Texans did?

You mention Osweiler but it was Mercilus and Clowney who kept them in that game.

I didn't get to see the KC v Pitts game, so a genuine question and interest.

I did see Osweiler threw more TD passes than Big Ben though... :wink:. Going by the score sheet, Pittsburgh were playing Yawnion out there.

I'll be going for the Steelers btw, this more for my wagering interests. :money_mouth:

Definitely have a good enough pass rush. Our linebackers are playing as good as any at the moment, and there's a stat going around that says since week 11 (I think, might be earlier, can't remember) the Steelers lead the league in sacks. Timmons is ever reliable, Dupree and shazier get better week by week, and James Harrison...well, he speaks for himself. Our D-line is playing great too...Hargrave and Tuitt have both stepped up big time in Heywards absence. Our main weakness is still the defensive backs, but the two rookies Burns and Davis are steadily improving
