Actual scores in red.
AFC
Wild Card Weekend Steelers 22 - Dolphins 16
30-12 & Texans 24 - Raiders 17
(27 - 14)
Division Round Weekend Steelers 31 - Chiefs 17
18-16 & Patriots 42 - Texans 20
34-16
Conference Championship Steelers 38 - Patriots 34
Got all the winners correct (so far) in that AFC. Actually impressed with that!
NFC
Wild Card Weekend Packers 34 - Giants 31
38-13 & Lions 27 - Seahawks 24
6-26 got it wrong
Division Round Weekend Packers 41 - Falcons 38 & Cowboys 31 - Lions 20
Packers 34 - Cowboys 31 this is a week early, see below Falcons 36 - Seahawks 20
Conference Championship Packers 24 - Cowboys 21 (
since that game took place last week, I will say... Packers 41 - Falcons 37
We'll see how that goes.

And, what is your prediction for score?
Steelers 24 - Packers 27
And at this point, even getting games wrong, is still a possibility.
Peace of the Lord be with you.

I'm 7/8,Tood. The Sh1thawks sucked beyond anything I could have imagined.
Their D looked like it was an exhibition game.
I gotta follow my heart with Pittsburgh and Green Bay this week.
Two of the all-time greatest and my two favorite clubs (plus my bandwagon Denver fetish).
I see the Steelers out-gutsing the Pack in the Show, though.
It'd be an incredible matchup.
If it ends up Atlanta and NE, I won't have to worry about watching the game, at least.
:-)
The Steelers over NE is blind faith. I want to see that game so bad it hurts.
I don't think Tomlin has half the brains of Belichick, but I do think the whole coaching staff can put together a Belichick beater.
We gotta outdistance them in the first half, or Bill will dissect our club into oblivion the second half.
We'll need to bring two games so he can't make the second half adjustments that are the success of the Pats.

Hi Scott, the thing that people keep forgetting about Belichick is that he learned football at his father's knee when he was coaching at Annapolis. As a matter of fact, his father is the ONLY civilian ever to be buried at Annapolis. Bill coaches football like it's war; he's going to have way more games than just two and he can pivot on a dime. Also, why do you think he never says anything at press conferences? Because "Loose lips sink ships." He has lots of different looks for anything he wants to do, not unlike how Eisenhower had Patton "command" a fake army opposite Calais prior to the Normandy invasion to draw off the German Panzer units from the real landing sites. Most football coaches and players are emotionally undisciplined; they get fired-up too easily and that speeds up the game for them. That causes them to react instead of think. Bill plays a thinking game while everybody else plays an emotional game and that's where he gets 'em. On the bright side, I could be wrong; I've been wrong before.
:-) Good luck, my friend!

Hi Admiral, 20 leading scientists from the most prestigious universities in the country filed an amicus (friend of the Court) brief during the last court date explaining that the Ideal Gas Law
perfectly explains the pressure loss as observed. The only thing that deflated those balls were the laws of physics.

Just bustin' balls, Brother, I wish I had such supreme confidence in some of the teams I root for.

Thanks Admiral. I remember the bad ol' days when the Patsies couldn't buy a win to save their friggin' lives. That loss to the Bears in '86 crushed me. This current era
still seems like a miracle.

Close to a dynasty as it gets these days, Darren.

I know that feeling, sorta feel the same way about my Blackawks the lasy 7-8 years.
