OT: NFL Games Open Thread

Submitted by WichitanWolverine on
Seahawks-Falcons on FOX now, Pats-Texans on later. Thomas Rawls started off hot but has since cooled down. Hope all our former Wolverines perform well this weekend.

playing at the same dominating level as he did during the regular season. Falcons offense is fun to watch. Just keep it up in the second half and end these Seahawk bastards' season.

Rawls is good. Really good. I mean, I know that RBs are extremely high variance, and anything can happen...But dammit his type of good looks like it would be good anywhere.

Haven't watched a ton of Falcons Football this year...Gotta say I'm truly impressed by this team top to bottom...Look to be Super Bowl bound to me cause you know the Cowboys always find a way to nut up...P.S...Eat a dick Pete Carroll

...Madden's simulated season predicted a Falcons-Steelers Super Bowl. Which is still very much on the table, obviously. 

If the Steelers can pull it off on the road vs the Chiefs, they are gonna give (presumably) the Pats everything they can handle -- and then some.

First of all (and isn't it a RULE?), never count out Tom Brady. Never.

I think winning on the road for Pitt is a tall order, but I just look at the three Bs: Big Ben, Bell, and Brown, and if all three of those guys are firing, that's a pretty potent attack, capable of taking down anyone.

Right now, I give the edge to the Cowboys at home, but yeah, if the Falcons' defense shows up in Dallas? They could definitely pull it off. Should be fun.

For tonight, though, go Tom go!

Totally agree on Pitt...Might be able to beat KC.. Should be a great game. However you gotta know that Mr Intensity has an axe to grind with The Shield and his talent and will to win can surely get them back to SB. Line it up fellas! Funny that I was manning my 11 year old up this morning at breakfast to none other than Pink Floyd...Too cool buddy
