NEXT WEEK'S DIVISIONAL ROUND IS NOW SET
SATURDAY, JANUARY 15
New York Jets at Pittsburgh (CBS)
St. Louis at Atlanta (FOX)
SUNDAY, JANUARY 16
Minnesota at Philadelphia (FOX)
Indianapolis at New England (CBS)
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
What's my take on Wild Card Weekend?
---Both 8-8 teams won their playoff games this weekend (St. Louis and Minnesota). Seahawks head coach Mike Holmgren and Packers quarterback Brett Favre are linked in history one more time. Unbelievable.
---If there ever was a lock of the year, it was the Colts beating the Broncos today. Did anybody think that Jake Plummer would lead Denver past Peyton Manning's Colts? Go schedule a drug test immediately if you decided to bet money on the Broncos.
---How about the Minnesota Vikings? To go into Lambeau Field and win in January is an accomplishment in itself. Nobody gave them a chance in hell of winning today. But that's what's great about the NFL.
---I wish I could criticize Marty Schottenheimer for losing yet another playoff game, but I can't, because of the Seahawks' performance yesterday.
--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---
Predictions for the next round?
Watch out, Philadelphia.
That's all I'll say for the time being.
