USC Wuz Robbed!

I guess that doesn't exactly count then... Anyways, my predictions: Seattle over St. Louis New York Jets over San Diego Indianapolis over Denver Green Bay over Minnesota

Why would his sucking matter to your postseason hopes? Isn't he Detroit... which is in the OPPOSITE conference?

Denver and Indy did that either last year or two years ago I believe. Also New York Jets and Indy as well.

I absolutely despise Denver and Indy, so I have no interest, as I said before. Here's hoping the winner of that game gets killed by Pitt/NE the next round...

I'm definitely going to watch 3 of the 4 games (No interest in the Colts game), and it's cool that two of the four are between divisional rivals (Seattle/St. Louis and Minnesota/Green Bay)

Did you just copy that from my post in the Week 17 thread? It looks so alike...

Well San Diego is operating with a 2nd-3rd string offense.

Wildcard Schedule: Saturday January 8th 4 pm EST: St. Louis Rams vs Seattle Seahawks (ABC) 8 pm EST: New York Jets vs San Diego Chargers (ABC) Sunday January 9th 1 pm EST: Denver Broncos/Jacksonville Jaguars/Baltimore Ravens at Indianapolis Colts (CBS) 4:30 pm EST: Minnesota Vikings at Green Bay Packers (FOX)

Except the Pats. They kinda won that Super Bowl, y'know?

Rest assured, Eagles can easily dispose of San Diego.

Harley, that's probably the most accurate prediction I've heard. I hope it comes to fruition.

And at the same time, it's wise because you don't want the Vicks, Favres, Mannings and McNabbs of the league to fall to injuries in meaningless games.

At least I swept a divisional rival... and finished 8-8.

If Denver loses and Jax loses then Ravens are in, if Denver loses and Jax wins, Jax automatically goes in.

And being forced to watch Jim Hart's games.... *shudders*

Well I'm at work and not on AIM right now. I can't get on AIM at work. So I'll go ahead and give you one when I get home. Cool. Looking forward to a heated but good natured debate.

As am I. I always play as them in Madden.

Teke, you're for the Saints? If so, awesome.

I would except you're not showing up on my AIM list. Why don't you IM me on Slasherflick instead?

"The Replacement" if possible, thanks!

Jets score, 26-21... PAT to come. Go Saints!

It's statements like that that make me shake my head. I assume it means that OU is in a better position to give White and Peterson all the protection while he apparently seems to think the OU D will smear Leinart and Bush in the turf. Me and Slasher Flick should be natural enemies. But he's the only one that understands what I'm saying. You have it correct Slasher. That is what I meant. USC's defensive line doesn't really bother me though b/c OU has handled every defensive line they've faced. However I may have to retract my statement on USC's offensive line b/c well they have protected Leinart well this season. So that'll make it interesting to see if OU's defensive line can bring the pressure. But honestly I think OU's O-Line can handle USC's D-line. It doesn't bother me that you think your team is better. You should naturally be entitled to do so. But give USC some credit. They did get to the Orange Bowl for a reason. That's all I ask, and I will give OU credit. They are very good. The Orange Bowl will be very good... hopefully.

Whoa hey now that firebreathing gimmick was cool.

Your logic is so faulty I don't even know where to start. First of all, OU's O-line isn't playing USC's O-line. Comparing one to the other is nonsensical, because they won't come into contact. There's no matchup. Secondly, they're playing USC's D-line, which is likewise the best in the country. It's silly to say that one will definitely handle the other. The fact is, because they're both so good, we just don't know. That's why they're playing the game. Thirdly, USC doesn't have to have a O-line better than OU's O-line. All they have to do is have an O-line better than OU's D-line. Do they? It's hard to tell. That's what Dama is saying. He's saying OU's O-line> USC's D-line and OU's D-line> USC's O-line. I only agree with half of it. Both defensive lines are better than the opponent's offensive line. Which is why I say it comes down to who outscores the opponent as being the one to win the game.
