NFL 2011 Season Discussion

[Joe Biden 2020]

I have a word for the Packers...  What was that?

Ok, that's three words.

FIXED:

I have a word for the Packers...  Huh?

I have a word for the Colts... Careful...

[Paul Kemp]

A fantastic day in the National Football League!

[Thomas D]

I guess the Ravens don't want to have playoff games at home.

When the lights go down in the city.
And the moon shines on the bay.

[Grumpier Than Thou]

Go 49ers!

[Хahar 🤔]

I'm going to miss Candlestick when they tear it down.

Sun, not moon. After they played that song during the 2010 World Series, I'm not ever going to forget the words.

I like my way better

So, then...

[Associate Justice PiT]

     Brilliant performance, particularly on the part of the defense. Another age-old rushing defense record has fallen, which leaves two left I can see. This was a win we badly needed, though I doubt even this will make the naysayers change their tune.

[Grumpier Than Thou]

YYYYYYYYYYYYEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Steelers have refused as well...Patriots, you're up next.

[Paul Kemp]

A great finish to a great NFL weekend.

[Politico]

My new guesses:

AFC
1. New England
2. Houston
3. Pittsburgh
4. Denver
5. Baltimore
6. Cincinnati

NFC
1. Green Bay
2. San Francisco
3. New Orleans
4. New York
5. Detroit
6. Atlanta

AFC/NFC Championships

Baltimore at New England
New Orleans at Green Bay

Super Bowl

New England Vs. Green Bay

[Napoleon]

Giants aren't making playoffs bro.

new FO.com playoffs odds are out.

Jets at 45.4% to make it; Broncos in command out West but Chiefs up to an absurd-in-and-of-itself 8%; NFC East is 58-27-15 DAL-NYG-PHI; Atlanta, Detroit approaching virtual lock on NFC wild card; Patriots near-lock to repeat as AFC regular season champion.

[Хahar 🤔]

I'll make some predictions.

AFC
1. New England
2. Baltimore
3. Houston
4. Oakland
5. Pittsburgh
6. Denver

NFC
1. Green Bay
2. San Francisco
3. New Orleans
4. Dallas
5. Atlanta
6. Detroit

Conference Championships
Baltimore at New England
San Francisco at Green Bay

Super Bowl
Baltimore vs. Green Bay

[Napoleon]

1. New England
2. Baltimore
3. Houston
4. Denver
5. Pittsburgh
6. New York

1. Green Bay
2. San Francisco
3. New Orleans
4. Dallas
5. Detroit
6. Atlanta

New York @Baltimore
San Francisco @Green Bay

Baltimore defeats San Francisco again in Harbrawl 2.0.

[Grumpier Than Thou]

Nah the 49ers will win the Superbowl

[Associate Justice PiT]

     The Niners offense this year is somewhat erratic & three consecutive successes seems like a bit much to ask of it. I think we're still a year out from a Super Bowl victory.

[Хahar 🤔]

Nobody's going to Lambeau and winning.

[dead0man]

Nobody's going to Lambeau and winning.

That's what I'm thinking too.  Sure, it's possible, but it's going to be very very hard for the Saints or the 49ers to win in Green Bay in January.

[Napoleon]

Any team losing to the Chiefs can lose any game. Period.

[dead0man]

Well, the Chiefs:
A.are not as bad as their record indicates
B.are tough at home
C.the Packers were probably "looking past" the Chiefs a bit

That said, you are 100% correct.

[Associate Justice PiT]

Any team losing to the Chiefs can lose any game. Period.

     Losing to clearly inferior teams is an ever-present threat in this game, or really any professional sport. Just look at the Ravens, whose four losses have all come from teams without winning records. With that said, the Packers have a very strong advantage in the NFC Championship game.

I'm making a prediction, not regurgitating what we already know: that the Green Bay Packers have a great chance of going to and winning the Super Bowl. Fortunately, the unexpected is what makes the NFL great. The Packers weren't "supposed" to make it last year but they did. The Jets weren't "supposed" to make back to back AFC Championships but what we did. I've predicted a reversal in current trends, with the season closing by successes from defensively driven teams as opposed to those who put up massive points on offense.
