I love that it's the last game of the weekend, hopefully it's an epic matchup.

Well, it certainly was that...

For posterity. The better QB thinking is Bill Simmons. He is my all-time favorite sports writer. I do tend to agree with him though. This year it can obviously be thrown out the window. Unless, what we're seeing is the old guard getting passed by the new.

Saints vs Vikings, I watched. Great game and wow what an ending. I never knew that Keenum was 2nd in the league for QBR. So, maybe he was the better QB. But, I think that last play was a combination of a good play, good throw and catch and more than a little luck. I don't mind seeing Vikings advance and they'll be who I'm rooting for the rest of the way. The Purple People Eaters!

I missed a great game between Jags and Steelers. Which again, maybe Bortles has developed into a way better QB than Bortles of the past 2-3 years. Tom Coughlin could have a good deal to do with that. I'm rooting for them to take down the Pats with all my heart.

Hey, and there is a reason i don't gamble, take it easy on a fellow. I'm looking at you Tao!

Great respect for you, sir! And you ( inadvertently? ) introduce a potential omen ... Patriots 2 SB loses were to the Coughlin led Giants, and now he's head of football operations for the Jags ... could be ...

Thank you, utmost respect for you also. Yes, it is an omen, one I'm fond of. Because, well, FUCK THE PATRIOTS!!!!!

I'm throwing all of the Mr. Simmons gambling rules out the window(in all honesty it wouldn't have changed my picks, I thought Saints was the hot team). Now, I'm going with who I want to win. Viking over Eagles and Jags over Patriots. With the Purple Peope Eaters winning the Super Bowl.

I like the Vikings over the Eagles.

I'd love for the Jaguars to beat the Patriots, but I just don't see it happening.  Really hope I am wrong though.

Wouldn't be the first time NFL outcomes have surprised me. I've accepted ciphrang MSJ to take up residence in my mind, so going with the Jags. I'm good with it, MSJ - enjoy yourself, pulling my strings.

I'm 3-5 following Simmons rule #1 of playoff betting, don't fucking listen to me!!!!

Anyhow, as I said, in picking who I want to win.

In all honesty, I see fucking pretty-boy, vegan eating, sleeps 12 hours a day, cheating, got a hot ass wife (excuse me ladies), will be up there with confetti with his perfect teeth talking about how just one play at a time man, one game at a time. And, ill feel like cracking those teeth through the TV, will hoist the Lombardi Trophy. And, I would not be the least bit surprised. I'm just rooting for the teams.left is like to see win a SB.

This isn't Ciphrang MSJ, TAO. This is me, I suck at picking winners. I should follow my gut (which I did with the Saints, and they lost on the only last play of the 4th in NFL playoff history.), and my pick would be been slightly different. Nothing major though

Oh, Frail, remember who is Consultant for the Jags.....Tom Coughlin. He prowels the sidelines and the film rooms. Who have the Pats lost their 2 SB's too? Coughlin led Giants. And lets be honest, Bortles has shown he is capable of making plays and winning games. He isn't the Bortles of the last two years. Hmmm, I wonder who will be the Jags David Tyree.

Last time Pats fans was this cocky was when you was undefeated. Look how that worked out.

This isn't Ciphrang MSJ, TAO.

Yes, I agree, you're not a Ciphrang - was making a joke, you in my head ( Ciphrangs in Kellhus's severed heads ) ... oh, nevermind.

I'm actually picking the Jag's because I think they'll win.

I never told you to follow my lead concerning who to pick. Maybe, you just wanna follow an evil demon.
