NFL Playoffs

[Minskaya]

Another 10-12 inches of snow here today and wind chills tonight will be at least -40° F

Which reminds me of winters in Ukraine and riding in a sled pulled by horses with their bells tinkling

You know it must be cold at the game when someone like Erin Andrews is surrounded by thousands of fans but needs battery operated devices to keep warm. Those that play and are on the sidelines today sure earned their pay today. 13-10 SanFrancisco…halftime.

I think I'd swap the words defeat and stun

I don't think so, although Dalton defeats the Bengals would probably be more apt. A fumble and two picks.

Well... the 49ers stunned the Packers? I would say hardly.

Stun would be the Chargers beating the Broncos again, and/or the Saints beating the Seahawks in Seattle.

Besides you picked San Francisco so how could that be stunned? :confu:

Kaepernick took that thing over and that. was. that.

I would say that any last second winning field goal is stunning loss for someone.

Kaepernick took that thing over and that. was. that.

Hopefully, he does that in Carolina this weekend.

The Seahawk's 12th man strikes again. In what may well have decided the game the sheer noise of the 12th man's BOOM forced the Saints to waste two precious timeouts to avoid delay of game penalties. They then used their third on a challenge. This left them with no way to stop the clock. In related news, Seismologist at the UW said the record setting crowd's earth shaking antics likely beat their previous record known as the Beastquake. In Seattle it really is a home field advantage.

I think LaGarrette Blount just rushed for 6 more yards.

I'll go with the Patriots and Niners on Sunday.
