If Green Bay does that if they play Seattle in the playoffs, I don't think the Packers will win. But that game will matter so much on where it is played. I don't see the Packers losing another regular-season game this year. So it would most likely be at Lambeau Field if they were to meet.

Patrick, I too am not at all optimistic regarding Atlanta's chances against Green Bay. But, the way this season has gone thus far, now watch the Falcons defeat the Packers tonight. ;)

Patrick,It would be very interesting if (e.g.) a 5-11 or 6-10 division-winning team ended up hosting an 11-5 wild card team in the wild card game! I don't know if this could happen, but perhaps it could.

Scott,Does this Brady guy double as an NHL forward by any chance? The Bruins could have used his offensive prowess last night. ;)

Agreed. My father let me do all of the picks since he knew that the percentages worked in his favor! I once made ten picks (against the spread) and then reversed my picks. I got seven-out-of-ten right after having reversed my picks. But I wasn't confident enough to continue choosing my picks...

Scott, I got them from my father as well! We had to win ten games against the spread. I believe the most I would bet was a dollar or two. If you won, the return was in the thousands of dollars or so. I never won until I started to bet (more of a friendly nature) with my father one-on-one...

Scott, See? The Chiefs - Raiders game went just like I said it would. ;) This is why I never bet on NFL games. You just never know. I used to bet the football cards many years ago (and that was against the spread which to me is very difficult). I eventually learned my lesson. :)...

Scott,The Jets-Bills game will indeed be moved. There are three locations being discussed at present:"Possible locations, according to sources, include Detroit, Pittsburgh and Washington, D.C. The Lions and Redskins are on the road this weekend; the Steelers have a bye. It's 215 miles from...

Scott,Of course, how many times have we said that 'this or that game' is a sure thing, only to see the inexplicable occur on the field! Now watch the Raiders win tonight. ;)

Scott,Although I would love to see a Raiders victory tonight, I don't think it will happen. Back in the late 1960s and early-to-mid 1970s I looked forward to each and every game played between the Raiders and Chiefs. That was a wonderful rivalry and some of those games were magical. Daryl...

I don't see 200-yard games for New England Patriot rushers all that often, so for me it was nice to see Gray do it over the weekend. I remember seeing a couple of 200-yard games by Simpson, Campbell, and Dickerson. It's amazing to me that some of these guys did it more than once in a season...

Patrick,I never saw that coming either. If I were a betting man, I would have taken Dallas and the points.

Scott,Who would have predicted that the Patriots and Steelers would both eclipse fifty points in the same week?! I don't doubt for a moment, Scott, that what you just wrote about Roethlisberger being the first quarterback in NFL history to have two 500-yard passing games in his career is...

Glad to see your Lions win today, Scott. I know you've been losing sleep over them. No worries. They've pretty much got the NFC Championship game won at this point. ;) Did you see the score of the Patriots - Bears game? It's currently 48-15 in favor of New England, and it was 38-7 at halftime...

So in other words Scott, he should fit right in with the Lions' recent kickers. ;)

Johnny,I don't know about you, but I've already looked into purchasing my Super Bowl tickets. Why? Because I really want to see how the Chargers do on the big stage this year. ;)

Well, that was an impressive win by the Cowboys today over the Seahawks (and in Seattle, no less). And this really caught my eye. I never thought the name of my all-time favorite running back would be seen in a recap today: "Murray became the second running back in NFL history to start a...

San Diego and Oakland (it will go down to the wire). ;) Dallas and Seattle will also be a good one. :) Whew! That was a close one for the (now 5-1) Chargers. And although I don't usually root for the Cowboys, I am making an exception today given whom they are playing. :)

Scott,I "feeley" much better about this choice. It's almost a done deal. :) http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/11661152/detroit-lions-expected-sign-matt-prater-deal

Scott, I would rather see Prater as their next kicker. I like his work from 50+ yards. And I can't for the life of me understand why Scott Merryfield wanted this guy to be coach-of-the-year for two successive years. ;)

No problem Scott! :) Robert,Surely I thought you were going to write, "But you may call me Robert." ;)

Please don't call me Robert. ;) :)

As usual, I called the New England game exactly as I thought it would turn out. I could not have been more right about my prediction. ;)

Scott, Yeah, I know. Not a good day to be a Detroit sports fan! The Bills have a pretty good defense, especially their front four. They pretty much controlled both the run and passing game of the Lions today. Acquiring Tate hasn't exactly been 'golden,' but the Lions have several problems...

That was quite a game last night. As lopsided as the score was, the Falcons don't exactly instill fear in me when I watch them against good teams. http://scores.espn.go.com/nfl/recap?gameId=400554194

Scott,I have nothing against RGIII, but I would really love to see Cousins start a few games for the Redskins. He looked really good in the game last year (or was it the year before?) when RGIII was hurt and he rallied the team. Speaking of him possibly becoming the next Peyton Manning in...

It was good to see the Eagles clinch their division last night. They will need to win games on the road if they are to be a serious contender this year. ;) Seriously, I am happy that they won. For the most part I am an AFC guy at heart, but last night I was pulling for them (for various...

Not me Johnny. The Chargers are once again Super Bowl bound. ;)

Johnny,I would say that he will not.

It's about time.
