Sunday Divisional Round Games

[Hoenheim]

Hell of a game by the Jaguars defense. Scoring 40+ points you can beat any team . 

Their defense got shredded through the air but thats to be expected against the Steelers WR core. 

I think the Jags have a decent shot at beating the Pats if they get off to hot start and defense forces a turnover or two in the first half.

The Steelers have so many offensive weapons...

How do they lose this game?

Easy, the couldn't stop Fornette or Bortles and couldn't convert 4th downs.

I think the Vikings are the only team that has a chance.

Even if the Pats play their worst game of the season next week, last thing the NFL wants is the Jags in the Superbowl, so expect a lot of BS calls to go against Jacksonville if it is close.

Jags Have the D to make Brady look bad  I think jags will pull it off we been too 2 super bowls as a expansion team they haven't yet it might be thier year.

Someone in the media brought it up after the NE and Pitt game that the last play where Ben was intercepted showed that the patriots are the better coached team yada yada but im starting to think that coaching is the issue in Pitt...Tomlin is a meh coach that lives off the talent he has...he tends to fall flat in big situations

NFL will be afraid of ratings plummet if Bortles if  the Jags are in the Superbowl. NFL viewership is already significantly down - if the Jags are in the Superbowl, rating will be awful for the Superbowl and the NFL risks the possibility of losing commercial sales for the superbowl in the future.

Oh whoops I mean the powers that be wanted a Jacksonville and Pats NFC game and a Foles win.(lol)

Didn't see any bitching about the Eagles DB who helped Julio "fall"

People people who aren't new to football understand quite well how NFL playoffs are officiated.(and rightfully so)

[Hoenheim]

Hoping the Saints get absolutely destroyed by the Vikings now . Then I wont care much who wins the SB. Although I'd rather Eagles, Vikings, or Jags win the SB than the Pats since none of those 3 have won yet. 

Jags vs Vikings would be unexpected and cool.

The Patriots defense is better than Pittsburgh.  Not as good as Jacksonville, but good enough to shut down Fournette and Bortles perhaps.  Jacksonville might need some turnovers, but I doubt Brady and company will give them enough to make a difference.
