If you could watch only one, which one do you watch?

Pack/Eagles or Jets/Colts are the best match-ups.

I'll be watching Ravens/Chiefs also to see how Joe does.

Obviously I would pick the Eagles game, but I haven't seen the Chiefs play a single down live... I'd love to see them play (plus Flacco).

I voted for the Saints/Seahawks game only because I'll be in Louisiana the following week and would love to mess with Saints fans if by some way the Seahawks won that game.

Pack-Eagles

Mccoy-Maclin-Vick-Jackson show vs the GB defense

the glorious part of the playoffs is the games are all on at different times, so just pull out the beer and chips and enjoy all 4 games.

Oh, believe me, that's my intention... this was a hypothetical. ;)

Actually, now that I think about the weekend, I will miss the end of the Ravens/Chiefs game. :x

Probably the Philly game - I'm curious to see what method Reid's boys will use to melt down this season.

I get the argument for GB-Philly. But I'm interested to see if we can get the first 11-win champion in the Super Bowl era.

Obviously the Philly/GB one is the choice - but that doesn't mean the other ones won't be fun to watch. There is no such thing as a bad NFL playoff game, even ones with Seattle included.

Oh, nonsense. The Seattle/NO game shits the bed as there is no way should a team with a losing record ever make the playoffs. The system needs to be fixed to some kind of seeding arrangement based on record alone. :nod:

I agree with you, but there is certainly no way I will ever complain about getting to see a 'Hawks playoff game. I chose that one because I'm a huge Seattle fan and I'm interested to see what we're going to do about QB for the game. Hasselbeck gives us a better chance to win than Whitehurst if he is healthy (in my opinion) but his contract is up after the season and it will be interesting to see what Carroll and company decide to do.

Vick has won on the road in Green Bay before. It makes for the most interesting storyline.

Baltimore goes apeshit over NFL playoffs. Ravens stuff painted on almost every street corner, all the buildings have purple filters on the lighting. Street lights tinted purple. If I didn't hate the team so much, I'd think it was really cool.

Purple is such a gay team color. I doubt any team in football has ever won a NFL/college championship wearing that gay color.

When was the last time Toddles College beat a team in purple?

City Hall and Schaefer Building went purple last weekend. The WTC and street lights were purple this morning. They'll stay lit up until the Super Bowl.

2003 - it was a banner year against purple. We beat Albany and Holy Cross. Other than that, we beat Richmond in '06 and '07, they are blue and red, that's as close as we've come.

That new turf get installed yet?

Albany isn't real. Do you personally know someone who has been there? I don't.

Working on it...hold on, let me check the Streamers (i.e. JMU fan site) website. I'm sure there's a live camera on there...

Homer pick - Chiefs/Ravens. Been a Chiefs fan since Hank Stram had Len Dawson and Otis Taylor matriculating the ball down the field and Willie Lanier stopping people cold.

Not to mention The Hammer getting himself knocked out in the Super Bowl.
