SkinzWin 01-10-2013, 10:21 AM Fun fact, last time all 4 home field teams won in the second round of the playoffs was the 2004-2005 nfl season. So more than likely one team loses at home. Just a matter of which one.
That will definitely be ATL. I can't believe all you people think ATL actually has a legitimate shot to win this game. Seattle is going to wipe the floor with the Falcons.
1) Falcons had the easiest schedule in the league this year
2) They have not won a playoff game since 2005, losing in the first round of the playoff 3 of the last 4 years. (The other year they didn't make it)
3) Russell Wilson has more playoff wins than Matt Ryan
4) ATL ranks 24th in the league in defense. Seattle ranks 4th
In other news:
Denver over Ravens 24-13
Packers over Niners 17-14
Patriots over Texans 31-17

Falcons are 7-1 at home this year. Seattle is not a good road team, except for last week of course.
If I'd change any of my picks to take one road winner, it would be Green Bay beating SF, but I don't think GB has a complete-enough team to go to the SB again. Middle-of-the-pack defense and not much of a running game. Can they make it again? Sure, but there are more complete teams still playing they'll have to beat.
CultBrennan59 01-10-2013, 10:59 AM Patriots 35-24
Atlanta 31-16
Broncos 38-26
Green Bay 35-28
Also I saw Inside the NFL last night and Richard Sherman just moved up to number 1 most hated player in the league, in my book. Any of you all hate Finnegan? Wait until you hear sherman and some of the crap he was saying. They even showed what Trent and Sherman were saying to each other. "Boy I'm ******* smack you in your **** face" "[something like] Do it then boy!" and then Trent just owns him in the face. Sherman can play but his mouth exceeds his play.

Why are the Falcons 7-1 at home do you ask? I will tell you. Because they played two playoff teams all year. The Redskins, and the Broncos.

To be honest the Broncos only beat two playoffs team just like the Falcons,
New England only beat three, Ravens only beat two teams. Teams play who are on their schedule, last year NE only beat one team with a winning record on their way to the superbowl, the Broncons this year have played teams in the AFC west and have gotten on a roll with easy opponents, teams play teams on their schedule, but with all that said I am still not that high on the Falcons.

But they probably didn't have THE easiest schedule in the ENTIRE league like the Falcons. I'm just not a believer. They stumbled to end the season. The only consistency they have in regards to the playoffs is getting there and losing in the first round. Their talent isnt that much different from last year. Their only major acquisition was Asante Samuel. They have new coordinators, and while I do think they are upgrades over the old ones, i dont think their pedigree and their ability level will get them a win versus a Seattle team who will be playing a read-option offense in a dome with fast field turf against the 24th ranked ATL defense.
Ruhskins 01-10-2013, 11:56 AM If the Patriots lose, that would make my playoff watching experience more enjoyable. If the Ravens beat the Broncos, you might as well give the f*cking patriots the Lombardy Trophy :doh:

According to a release from the Gainesville, Fla., police department, officers were called at 8:26 a.m. to an apartment complex on SW 42nd Place regarding an argument between a man and a woman that had turned physical. Witnesses said Rainey and the female accuser were arguing over Rainey's cellphone and Rainey pulled the woman out of a vehicle that belonged to his roommate and then slapped her in the face with an open hand.
Rainey and the woman fell to the ground, and then Rainey chased the woman and grabbed her bag to retrieve his cellphone, the release said. The two fell again. The release said neither Rainey nor the woman suffered visible injuries.
Police charged Rainey, a former standout at the University of Florida, with simple battery (dating violence), a first-degree misdemeanor, and he was booked into the Alachua County Jail.
