Best playoff game of the year so far and best game of the entire season to date. No contest.

Sometimes I'm surprised Todd Haley isn't tarred and feathered on a daily basis in Pittsburgh. He's going to have to hire a bodyguard after that game...

Ok, on the Vikings/Saints fantastic finish (and I'm kindof a Drew Brees fan)... I think, not entirely sure and nobody can confirm it, that the safety on that final play was going for a tackle that was specifically between the receiver and the sideline. He was targeting off-center so that he could keep the receiver inbounds to run out the clock. Nobody would say he's an idiot for tackling the guy out of bounds when the saints lose to a vikings 52 yard field goal (not that that was a guarantee), but he was (I think) playing for more. He was trying to win the game right there by keeping his man in-bounds. He just misjudged slightly and ended up being the fall guy.
Great game. I've missed a ton of football this year, but something tells me I tuned in for one of the best moments.

I think that was exactly what he wanted to do. Still, the execution was terrible. The media and the fans have been very harsh with him, but I don't blame him. He wanted to make a play.
That has to be best finish ever for a Vikings game, being even better that the TD Brett Favre threw to Greg Lewis a few years ago.

I guess there were multiple reports of Apple watches detecting a "heart attack" during that time after the vikings made that GW TD.
One of the few things that technology has done.
On a side note, some people were saying that if he did attack the ball it would be called for interference which would be where it's at and would have the opportunity to do the FG.
In all.
Just a great game overall.
Edit:
NE is favored over Jax, -9.5
Min is favored over Phi, -3.5
What I would like to see is Jax upsets NE.
Minn brings it home.

Tough game for me. As much as I hate New England, I've really begun to hate Jacksonville this playoffs. I really don't wanna see either team in the playoffs. But I have to choose Jacksonville, though New England will probably stomp them.
I really really wanna see a Minnesota home game Super Bowl. And Case Keenum becoming the next Kurt Warner underdog that only got his job because the starter got hurt makes me root for him. So I have to take Minnesota over Philly. I just don't think Foles has it in him to take them to the Super Bowl over Minnesota's defense.
SB Prediction: Minnesota 26 New England 24

As per the "NFL" facebook page.
That's what they are saying too.
New England vs Vikings.

Mike Vrabel is the new head coach of the Tennessee Titans. Vrabel previously served as defensive coordinator for the Houston Texans. Now Vrabel is the head cheese for the Titans. I feared the AFC South got better as the Texans fell from grace this past regular season.
[UPDATE] DEFENSIVE coordinator. Changes made.

Four dreams are still alive. However, two seasons will end as the Championship games will be played. We will be assured any of these matches for Super Bowl LII in Minneapolis, Minnesota pending some unforeseen circumstances:
* NE Patriots vs. MIN Vikings
* JAX Jaguars vs. MIN Vikings
* NE Patriots vs. PHI Eagles
* JAX Jaguars vs. PHI Eagles
So which match will we get in Minneapolis for Super Bowl LII? That will all be determined by who the conference champions will be once today's two games are played out.
Good luck to all four teams, and congratulations to which two earn their trip to play in Super Bowl LII.
