Cardinals @ Saints
Ravens @ Colts
Cowgirls @ Vikings
Jets @ Chargers

Who do all reckon? All home teams maybe?

If the Cards can sort their defence and Anquan Boldin is fit then I fancy an upset there.

Cards, Colts, Vikings and Jets.

I think the fact that the Saints stopped playing after week 13 plus the wild card week means that most of their starters haven't had a game in 4 weeks. Cardinals to win in shock.
The other 3 games are home locks.

Cards, Colts, Vikings and Chargers.

I don't really know enough to comment but at a guess I'll say Cards, Colts, Cowboys and Chargers! All the 'C's.

Saints
Colts
Cowboys
Jets (more in hope but their defence might win them the game)

With the lack of rugby last weekend, I needed a sports fix, so I started watching the NFL, still only learning the various rules etc. but I'm really getting in to it now. Will have an overload of sport this weekend, with the Heineken Cup and NFL Can't wait!

I'm inclined to agree with Armchair's predictions.

After the Leinster game a few of us are heading to the Woolshed for the games.
Its a bit far but great atmosphere.

Very impressive from the Saints. Vince could be heading to N'awlins.

A lot of people were trying to write the Saints off after a run of sub par games at the end of the reg season.
These games were not overly important and now they are showing xactly what they can do.

A lot of people were suggesting that they might be there for the taking for a reason. Every year a high seed rests players in the run up to the playoffs and can't turn it back on when the time comes.

SB to be Saints v Colts
It will be a shootout.

Any good spots in Dublin City Centre to watch the Superbowl?

A gang of friends are heading to McSorley's in Ranelagh, but it's a bit further out than I'd like.

Did you get to watch?
Man it was some game eh!!
1st Qtr of doom for the Saints I never thought they'd come back. better 2nd qtr and they managed to keep Manning off the field for 70 mins. Mind you he comes on and makes a nice drive to throw a great touchdown but fact is that the Colts were rattled after that onside kick. They lost the decision the momentum and it got scrappy. No way were the saints gonna be bet in a scrap.

Class game though, great ending and top class half time show. Roll on SB 45!

Fell asleep at half-time!

WHO DAT?!?!

[Broken Wing]

Fell asleep at half-time!

I watched the 1st half then went to bed while the 2nd half taped. Managed to get through all of Monday without seeing or hearing the result until I got home from work and watched it. Great second half. That interception was such a kick in the teeth.

Stupid Saints.

Some interesting trading moves ahead of and post the Draft. My own team the Jets made a few bold ones,it remains to be seen how that will pan out next season but "sexy Rexy" has earned the right for my forbearance for the time being. Could be a right ol' dogfight in the AFC East with ourselves,The Pats and the Fish all vying for divisional honours.
