Now that the Cardinals have FINALLY made it to a conference championship game obviously with a win today they'll be making their first trip to the Super Bowl. In addition to the Cardinals the Browns, Texans, Jaguars, Lions, and Saints have never played in the big game. Of these other five teams which one do you folks believe are the closest to breaking through that Super Bowl celing?

NFL PING

FReepmail scott says to be added to, or to be taken off the NFL Ping list... This is a fairly high volume ping list

I dunno exactly why, but I think the Houston Texans will be in the playoffs next year and make it to the AFC Championship game before the others.

Hmmmm.....The Lions?

[mainepatsfan]

If the Saints can improve their defense they might get back into the hunt.

A GOP Presidential candidate will carry Michigan before the Lions play in the Super Bowl.

Go Cards! Go Steelers!

It’s interesting that the ‘85 Patriots were the only team to win three road games to reach the Super Bowl until the Steelers did it in 2005. The Giants of course did the same thing last year and the Eagles are one win away from accomplishing the same thing again this year. What the heck happened to home field advantage??

Houston texans are next to the dance

All week I’ve been hearing that NBC wants an all Pennsylvania Super Bowl....so that tells me it’s not going to happen.

[Dysart]

I see where the Giants are after one Dom Capers to replace Spags. That would be an excellent move.

[philly-d-kidder]

hahahah i am not complaining!!! hahahahahahahaha

My uneducated opinion, listed in order of closest to you gotta' be kidding me:

Saints
Browns
Texans
Jaguars
Lions

[Clemenza]

I want the Steelers to take it all, but want to see the Cards STOMP the “Iggles” and watch the latters homothug fans cry in their Keystones.

[cleveland gop]

Saints, when their defense improves.....

Browns, never. At least not until that team plays in front of an empty stadium for 3 years, to match the 3 years there was no football in this city.

I think the Cardinals have a good shot.. Has any team not played in the NFC Championship game since the merger???
