Packers have exceeded my expectations this year - having just won in Arizona I find it a bit strange that we're playing them againthis week in the Wild Card game.

Bear in mind, though, that Arizona rested most of their starters after about one drive. It will be much harder today but I still have faith in the Packers.

I'm probably being over harsh on Brady because I did both the Pats & Cards to win by between 13-19 points...

I think I should stick to my day job. :lolol:

Would have been the 3rd greatest comeback in NFL history having been 21-0 down.

I backed the Jets to win the Superbowl at 40-1 before they won yesterday. I know they are a long shot but Jets owner Woody Johnson lost his daughter last week and the Jets will be playing in her memory so could be interesting.

Proud of the way my Packers came back. Would have been a fairytale to actually win the game. 51-45 - I bet no-one predicted that.


What an amazing game!!

Obviously I'm gutted that we lost, but seeing as the game looked over after about 10 minutes, it was almost an unbelievable comeback.

At least three times the Packers seemed dead and buried, but kept coming back.

Having won the coin toss for OT I thought we would go on and win.

As a long time Broncos fan I'll be there. I'm also looking to see if I can sneak a weekend away at Billy Mays' place when we play in Jacksonville.

Have they confirmed the Wembley game already? Didn't realise the schedule for 2010 was even inked in yet. Anyone else fancy the Jags vs Broncos game? You'll have to bed down on the futon in the guest room DCH is using but it's not like it will be hard to get tickets!!

Looking good for the Jets. Having dispatched the Chargers in a 17-14 upset they’re off to Indianapolis next Sunday. The Jets have now won seven of their last 8 games. Yet another playoff meltdown for the Chargers who were the AFC # 2 seed and had won their last 11 games. Good performance from rookie Mark Sanchez. Two of the guys at work went to san Diego for the game. Always surprises me the distances American fans will travel to support their teams - Brighton fans think going to Carlisle is a big deal. Just as well for them Monday is a bank holiday in the States.

Yeah, but who wouldn't want to go to San Diego. A little piece of cielo on earth.

And the Chargers should have won today. Unbelievably bad kicking on those three field goal attempts - he missed as many today as he had ALL SEASON. When it comes down to it, one man has to carry the can for the whole team having their season ended, which is brutal for the guy concerned.
