NFC Playoff Discussion - Who are you pulling for?

[ORS]

Great catch by Westbrook, and smart play going OB so they can get another snap before the 2:00 min warning.

[ORS]

First half McNabb is back. One more shot for the game.

[ORS]

No flag there? That's pretty questionable. I don't mind the Eagles losing, but that was suspect.

[ORS]

Oh man, all over his leg. How do you let that decide a game?

in all fairness the refs did blow a call at the end of the first half , if not arizona had a good chance scoring 7 and would of changed the game completely

[BSN07]

Anyone see Bouldin anywhere?

Or they may have taken some time and only scored 3 which they did any way after Philly went 3 and out. I don't disagree that the call in the first half was blown. It wasn't a 100% game deciding call. The non-PI call in the 4th was, and to me, it was a bigger error. I don't think there's any question that was PI. I can see where a side judge downfield thinks the nose of that ball was OB in the first half.

the last I saw of him , he was in a heated argument with the offensive coach

The SB will play into the Cardinals hands. They arent a cold weather club and being in Tampa should help. That being said, the Cardinals were underestimated all postseason. They hit the falcons, panthers and eagles in the mouth early on. The Falcons and Panthers didnt recover. But I think this game actually showed what the cards are made of. They got out of the gate hot. The Eagles struck back fierce in the 3rd and the Cardinals had the intestinal fortitude to fight back and make a D stop. Good for them. They earned it.

[ORS]

I think they get killed in the SB. By either AFC North team.

[See Red]

The Eagles got screwed. That was clearly pass interference, and would've been called at any other point in the game.

Good thing I didn't bet on the playoffs...seeing that my team didn't make the playoffs I didn't have much to lose in whoever won this game. I have some Philly roots, but the fact that Arizona is going to the SuperBowl is no less entertaining. I'm also glad that the Eagles made a game out of it, although I probably wish that they'd have won.

[TheKilo]

Larry Fitzgerald is the best WR in the NFL. And you know what the funny thing is? Before the playoffs started, I would have said Boldin was.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

I don't see any way the Cardinals can beat the Steelers.

 

 

 

So naturally, I'm picking Arizona.

[mtbykr]

I didn't really care who won, but it was disappointing to see it end on a play where there should have been a flag thrown. With that said though I am sure McNabb would have found a way to gag again if they had been awarded the 1st down.

 

As far as the Superbowl goes, I actually think Arizona wins. I give the coaching edge to Wiz going up against his old team. I also think Warner will play better against Pitt than eyechart will against the cards D. Eyechart didn't play very well in his last SB appearance....let's hope the refs don't play such a big part this time around.

[italstallianion]

I've gone against the Cardinals the past 2 rounds and have been wrong, so at this point it wouldn't surprise me if the Cardinals actually do win. I don't like/dislike either team so it doesn't really matter to me.

[msubulldogs21]

Did anyone see The Edge dropping F-bombs on national tv yesterday right at the end of the game? The camera quickly moved off of him. I laughed.

[See Red]

I've been cheering against both teams the whole way through, but Larry Fitzgerald's won me over with his play and his enthusiasm out there. It's awesome to see how excited he gets after a big play by the Cards.

[msubulldogs21]

Why would you be cheering against Arizona throughout? That's a little surprising.

 

Surely everyone who doesn't have Pittsburg ties will be pulling for the Cardinals in the Super Bowl.

Just how it worked out. Wanted the Falcons or Colts to win the Super Bowl, when they got eliminated, I wanted the Panthers to win the Super Bowl, when they got eliminated I wanted the Eagles to...

 

Nothing against the Cardinals -- Boldin's been one of my favorite players since I watched the Sugar Bowl where he had to play QB because all of the FSU QB's were either hurt, academically ineligible, or struggling. I thought it was awesome how he stepped in from WR to play QB. Plus I really admire how tough he is. Not scared to go up the middle, even with a metal wire in his jaw after the hit he took against the Jets. He's losing a bit of respect for the way he's acting lately, but he's been a reason I sometimes cheer for the Cardinals.
