I'm hoping it's going to be Steelers/Falcons in the Super Bowl.

No Cowboy fan can ever root for the Iggles, and I'm just tired of New England. They had the Red Sox in the Series last year, so quit piling on, dammit.

The only reason he got the Rams to the divisional round was because they had the fortune of playing the frauds in Seattle. He should have been fired after not going for the win last year against Carolina.

Michael Vick and his Falcons taking on the Chuncky Soup eating Donovan McNabb (his mama made him eat it) and the Eagles in Philly.

Haha! ;)

I'm cheering for the Steelers and the Falcons. May the best teams win today.

The Stillers over the Pats, Eagles over the Falcons, and then PA will be in civil war for the next few weeks.

GO BIG BEN!

Truer words were never spoken. No better way to tell your quarterback and team that he has no confidence in them and would rather go with a fifty-fifty proposition of a coin toss. Terrible.

IMHO the only reasons the Rams went back to the Super Bowl after Dick Vermeil coached them was because Martz had a lot of Vermeil players with him. Naturally the Rams were mismanaged in the final drive of the game.

The Rams went back in spite of Martz, not because of him.

For all the good fortune you New England fans have had this year (Pats, Sox) I am glad for the one loser, John F. Ketchup.

I like 'Championship Sunday' far more than Super Bowl Sunday. It's far more intense, and there's 2 games to watch. The Super Bowl seems to be more theatrical and just full of commercials. Also, I believe while both Super Bowl teams play to win they are happy just to be there. In the Championship Games, the players play like their life is on the line.

Hey, the team can wait when you have a woman in a towel in your locker room, right?

LOL! You tell me.

I strongly believe that Belichick is going to make Rothlisberger beat him. He's going to see more defensive alignments than he has ever seen before. But the Pats will assuredly stack the box.

If your Steelers have to convert 3rd and long all day, you should sweat. That means Rothlisberger must throw the ball.

I fervently hope so. This is the key to a Steeler victory.

If he had given Faulk the ball in that Super Bowl the Rams may well have beaten the Patriots but Belichick knew Martz wouldn't do it.

I agree. Though there is something to be said for a whole weekend of playoff action as opposed to just one day.

It'll be interesting to see how much Cowher will let Big Ben throw the ball tonight.
