These are beautiful match ups if you are a football fan. Chargers/Patriots and Colts/Ravens. Both of these match ups on paper are better then any potential Super Bowl possibility. In fact I'd say this is the best final 4 any confrence has ever produced since I've been watching football.

I'll take the Chargers and Ravens to win but both games will come down to a last second drive. Be it a stop or a score.

I was thinking the same thing. Great games with interesting story lines. All 4 of the teams are better than anything offered by the NFC.

I had a great time watching games this weekend. I imagine next week will be just as good.

I have to go visit the in-laws this weekend. Sucks that I probably won't be able to watch much more than the Bear game.

I'm also really looking forward to the AFC matchups this weekend. It is a great final four for them and should set up a real good AFC championship no matter what happens.

The NFC however is a real sh!tfest. If I weren't a Bears fan, I don't think I would have any interest in any of these matchups. No NFC team looked good over the weekend from what I saw. It just points out the disparity between the 2 conferences.

If I were impartial I may have some interest in the Saints because of their offensive personnel (no pun intended).

I'll go -

Chargers / Ravens
Bears / Saints

Chargers / Bears

BEARSSS!!

No, Chargers.

I'm supposed to be going to an Iowa basketball game during the Colts game...not too happy about this.

I'd skip it Ryan. Hawkeyes are average this year you wont miss much.

These games will definitely be more exciting than the Super Bowl, hands down. I have to take my Patriots over the Chargers (dellusions of gradeur, I know), and the Ravens over Payton and his Horseys.

I dont think that Colts game will be any good. Colts 3-5 on the road and that run D is real bad on the road, it might stay close for a half but I like the Ravens big. Manning will get pressured, throw pics and blame his recievers.

It might be but going in it's still an intreaging match up. The best QB vs the best defense. If the Ravens blow the Colts out it will be fun to see Goober's reactions-- fingure pointing, facial expressions and such.

yep, even though I think I enjoy Eli losing more. Ravens only giving 4, thought it would be more. And the Bears are giving 8.5 and i expect a high scoring game but O/U is 37. I think the NE-SD game and the Philli-NO game will both be very good.
