Would serve them right - cheating, cocky arrogant bastards.
And quit whining about Arizona making the playoffs while you may sit at home...too freaking bad.

Either way, the Cards get their buts whipped in the first round...

Nope - Cardinals win first round game.

Isn't it between New England and Miami for the playoff spot? If so I would like to see Miami.

There are so many iterations...it could be the Jets...Pats...Dolphins...or a combination of two of them depending on what happens this weekend...
See dbackjon's thread on the playoff possibilities for all the permutations.....

jon, you continue to pull for that team for one more week...the Dirty Birds will take them out in the first round...
And I hope this doesn't disappoint you, but most Pats fans understand why their team is not in the playoffs and a team like your Cards who barely got above .500 are...
This is from a poll running on the Boston Globe this morning...
Which of the following comments left in our Reiss's Pieces blog best summarizes your feelings about the Patriots missing the playoffs?
Disappointing not to make the playoffs, but you can't be disappointed in the Pats. Matt Cassel stepped in and did a great job and the defense was killed with injuries. To go 11-5 is quite an accomplishment.
62.9%
Favred. We got Favred.
14.5%
The Pats could have done better. A few missed plays here and there cost them a trip to the playoffs.
12.0%
NFL is a crock ... letting teams in the postseason with a .500 record really makes the playoffs more exciting, right?
8.6%
Hey, we still have the Celtics and Bruins!
2.0%
Total votes: 4539
What do you blame most for the Patriots missing the playoffs?
The Patriots making a few key errors in important games (Jabar Gaffney's drop, David Thomas' penalty, not stopping the Jets on 3d and long in OT, etc.)
48.1%
Injuries to key players (Brady, Thomas, Maroney, etc.)
30.3%
The inability of Eric Mangini, Brett Favre and the Jets to beat the Dolphins at home
11.1%
The NFL's backwards playoff system
