I think its going to be closer than most will imagine(Eagles will probably be about a 7-10 point favorite in the opening line,if its over 10 take the Rams.) But I have a feeling that a weaker NFC is why they rested the starters, they should be able to get the kinks worked out in the first half and be roaring to go. Besides if anyone could feel antsy about playing starters in meaningless games, it's Philly(Westbrook last year, Owens this year.) If you've read Bill Simmons' "Rules To Gambling On The NFL Playoffs", just remember the rule about coaching matchups. Andy Reid vs. Mike Martz: I'll take Reid, you can have Martz....who's feeling confident out of both of us? Factor in the home-field advantage and the fact that the Rams won't be playing a team that just screws up every opportunity they get(Seattle), and I think it'll be a convincing win. From what I've been hearing in the papers here in the Philly area is that the Eagles are just a little bit annoyed at the Rams beating their chests about winning that Monday night game when it basically was a give-away game, they're probably ready to start the playoffs now.

Nah Martz will find a way to blow the game. If Dorsey Levens was able to run all over the Rams defense in that JV game 2 weeks ago, how are they going to be able to handle Westbrook? I think the Eagles pass defense will be much stiffer than Seattle was this week. Never mind the fact that its probably going to be in the 30s next Sunday and dome teams have a history of playing shitty in cold weather.

I have a feeling that the Rams are going to get crushed if they have to go to Philly next week.

I actually think Sheldon Brown is quite underrated, you pretty much never hear about recievers doing well against him.

It'll be worse if it's Indy-Atlanta. ESPN will be fighting amongst themselves for who gets to give Manning and Vick the next verbal blowjob.

Agreed. Which is why I hope to God Atlanta is nowhere near the Super Bowl this year.

It's an end of an era I tell ya...

Man another TD, and its half-a-hundred.

Too bad ABC won't interview the losing coach like CBS does with the basketball national championship, Stoops could possibly have a Roy Williams moment.... "Coach what about the Cleveland Browns job?" "I could give a shit about the Cleveland Browns"

Ahhhh they finally show the USC Song Girls

Coach should lay out JR and drape a USC flag on him.

That's so wrong, but I'm laughing very hard at it.

Carroll should go grab O.J. out of the stands and let him play a few downs.

Probably the 62-23 shellacking Nebraska put on Florida in the 1996 Fiesta Bowl.

Another TD....they might as well try to pass 95 Nebraska for "Biggest Asskicking In A Title Game".

Another great pass by Leinart, I guess they're going to put the final nails in OU's coffin now.

Hahaha nice heel heat for the halftime show, and I can hear the audible "You suck!"

What a horrible halftime show. Much like the 2003 NFC title game halftime show, but at least us Philly fans had the good sense to boo the shit out of Ja Rule.

O.J. should reveal the real killer(s) in the second half. They're going to need blowout filler material anyway.

Christ now OU fumbles. This is getting very reminiscent of the Big XII title game last year.

Shit another TD, OU is definitley done now. ABC should go ahead and fly Auburn in for the second half now.

Stoops should throw Mickey Mouse in there, hell he'd probably do better than White

That's true, since it went real easy from Palmer to Leinart. Chow will probably get the new QB broken in quickly.

I doubt he comes back next year, especially since he'll probably go about Top 5 in the draft.

I know Leinart is most likely gone after this year, but how many losses to graduation and draft declarations is USC looking at? They could be preseason #1 again next year.
