Yep, bye bye cardinals! Number 1 seed is the Seahawks for the taking!

Haha, my pre-season pick was Seattle repeating a SB win over the Patriots. Looks like I wasn't far off.

I think Dallas has a shot at stopping them, but that's only if they have a lights-out game, Seattle would have to still be favored imho. GB would have a shot in Lambeau, but I just don't see GB going to Seattle and winning with Seattle playing solid ball.

Well my NFC pick to make it to the Super Bowl looks golden Seattle is not going to loose during the playoffs at home and my AFC pick still looks pretty good Denver still has a decent chance to make it back even without home field.



Denver has a shot, but I wouldn't pick them in a game @ NE in January. That would have to heavily favor NE.



Incredible how Atlanta is in the hunt with only six wins lol

I think San Diego is not going to make it against Kansas City.



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first. 

Well, I sucked this week on the picks, but Hawks win totally made up for it. :)



Estelle and Adol... best characters ever! XD

I'm hoping San Diego makes it.  They definetly could go to Indianapolis, Pittsburg or Cincinnati and knock out the Colts, Steelers or Bengals.

So much for looking out for number 1. You aren't the only one who fell for the Saints hype, but in your case it's more damning because you are such a traitorous swine.

That was a pick for cancer patients everywhere!



For those that missed them, here are two obviously intentional dirty plays :

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2306955-bears-jimmy-clausen-takes-helmet-to-helmet-hit-retaliates

In the stomp, you can clearly see him look down to see where the guy's leg was, then instead of stepping over or moving to avoid in any way, he slows down and raises his leg to smash the guy on purpose.

In the helmet to helmet hit, you can see that Ansah's eyes LOOKING DIRECTLY at Clausen in a slide before he lowers his helmet to drill him straight on.

They should both be suspended for the year, and Raiola for another 8 games for next season. And while they're at it, they should fine them both and give the money to this girl :

It's a weird world when the Raiders have 100x the class of the Lions.

And wouldn't you know it, the Lions head coach shows a systemic failure of class within that organization. At the post-game press conference, he dismissed the Raiola stomp as únintentional'. What a farce.



Yeah hopefully GB destroys the Lions, their dirty play is just getting out of hand, then again I shouldn't really be surprised since Detroit has  been a thug team for a good while now.



Wow that leg stomp was shitty as fuck.
