If the Vikings had been routed then I would have written them off. The comeback OT loss gave me a boost of confidence. Actually, for me it was better than a blowout win. It's good to know they can struggle back in cold weather.
I still see them as more of a Wildcard team.
I'm sad for the Texans. I was hoping this would be the Playoffs for them.
I am not looking forward to watching three repeat games this coming weekend.
I think SD is the team to beat...
Saints are looking flat,stale and used up.Need the Bi but peaked to soon...way to much local ya-hoo talk about that fooking "16-0"...lost focus.Got shook.Sad thing is if they go one and done in playoffs....all the early perfection means nattas.They did look damn good....hopefully gear up and pull it out but all up hill as underdogs now.......a good thing ??
The perfect season is something winning the superbowl is another. Given the choice, I go for the superbowl. Perhaps these 2 defeats were exactly what they needed to get reminded that they weren't invincible and that the fight wasn't over yet.Quote:

If his surname wasn't a single letter away from an all-in-one male swimsuit made popular by Borat, I think Mangini might deserve a shot at being there for another year.

Me and most NFL fans wouldn't know.
On a general basis.
Now which team in NFL has went undefeated in a single season?
72 Dolphins me and I'd like to think most NFL fans know that and would answer it in a heart beat.
Again not as meaningful BUT it def. carries some weight around I atleast think they should have started Peyton and tried to get an early lead then pull him out...
I agree with Mick on this one.
You have a chance at the Superbowl every year, just ask San Diego. You loose the first week of the season and the perfect record has eluded you once again.
If you make it to 13-0 and don't try for a perfect season you are an asshole. Afterall, you can loose the Superbowl either way, but a perfect season is the next best thing.
Also, if I were Peyton Manning I would have went home and never came back.
"Yeah, I think I quit. Afterall, I don't want to hurt myself or anything."
YEah sure, the mighty Dolphins of 72, I understand and agree with the weight. However, the ring is the real thing, the undefeated season is more like a bonus, a big one, so to speak.Quote:

YES SIR! Jets onto the AFC Championship. I can't even begin to tell you how GREAT of a time it is to be a Jets fan around here! One week they've got no chance at the playoffs, then every team that needed to lose lost, the Colts sit their starters and keep the hopes alive, Bengals play flat for our berth. Then comes the playoffs and we beat the Bengals and upset the hottest team in the NFL!Quote:

Saints, Vikings, Jets Colts, all teams that have been spectacular with the aerial play, this is made up for quite an interesting final, especially as we haven't seen the Vikes, Saints and Jets quite close to the big final for years, a real breathe of fresh air somehow.Quote:

Not trying to sound stupid but have the New York Jets only got 1 more game before the superbowl?
