NFL playoffs

Wow, is Peyton a playoff loser or what? I did not get to watch this game, but just wow when I heard that the Broncos lost to a domed team at home.

I like to see the Seahawks repeat as champions, but they did look kind of shaky against the Panthers.

And glad to see the Cowboys gone, a small consolation for this Eagles fan.

My prediction for the Super Bowl, February 1, 2015 in Arizona.

The two teams I'd like to see would be Seattle and Indianapolis! But with a reality check I think it is going to be New England versus Seattle with Seattle proving once again that they are the best team in the NFL!!!

Will not waste my time watching the Half-time Show this year. Katy Perry has had her 15 minutes of fame. Our family will be watching the Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet during the half-time.

I feel the same way, as halftime shows has always been a huge waste of time. Luckily, I have some other stuff on the DVR to watch during that time.

It will definitely be the Seahawks and Pats in the Super Bowl, but I also hope the Colts can somehow pull off an upset at Foxboro.

Still trying to work out how Green Bay lost that one... Seahawks only turned up for one quarter. Patriots blitzed the Colts. Somehow I think Brady is going to win another ring, but it won't be that easy...

I'll give some credit to the Seahawks defense, holding the Packers to 2 field goals after turning the ball over in their own zone. I think by the end, the Packers defense just really tired, with the way Lynch just ran through it as if no one was there, to score the go-ahead touchdown, and how they just seemed to stand around during that 2-point conversion. Still, no excuses, as they just seemed to play not-to-lose, after getting fooled by the fake field goal.

I ended up fast forwarding most of the Pats-Colts game. I knew the Colts were in big trouble after the muffed kickoff, and considering how Luck has had no luck (pun intended) against Brady. With Luck as the starter, the Colts have gotten destroyed every time against the Patriots, including the one game in Indy this past regular season.

All you New England Patriots fans can start whining now, because the Seattle Seahawks will win Super Bowl 49 on February 1, 2015.

Why would someone record football games? Any games you record are going to be the talk of the internet or on the radio when they are over. Watching a football game and speeding through the commercials is really silly.

It like me, I would never record a NASCAR race, ever!!! It is the thrill of watching everything unfold in your vision and cheering like you are there.

Not putting anyone down for DVRing football, but to me it just seems anti-climatic!!!

That's exactly why I record football games, mainly to skip the commercials, as they put an insane amount, and the way the breaks are placed. And saves a lot of time, especially when seeing if a game turns out to be a blowout, as in the case of the AFC Championship game. Unless you were a fan of the Pats, there was really no point to continue watching after that muffed punt.

And I've been very good at staying away from spoilers for the most part, so that is rarely a problem for me.

It's because they require 20 minutes of commercials per quarter.

Well, the Super Bowl is the only time that I will actually watch the commercials. Though, it seems like they have been less interesting lately.

Just have to hope those footballs are inflated correctly. Not that I think it played a factor in the AFC Championship game. But it was surprising that the Ravens have not said anything about it, since they would have more of a case, with the way they lost the game.

Anyway, let's go Seahawks! This is their chance to establish their legacy in the NFL. And they can't play the way they have been in these playoffs.

RUN THE BALL! RUN THE BALL!

Seriously, how stupid could Pete Carroll be? With 3 downs left, and 1 timeout left, the Seahawks should have used their biggest weapon. This was seriously unacceptable.

Congratulations to Pete Carroll and the offensive coordinator of the Seattle Seahawks for the biggest bonehead play/call in Super Bowl 49!!! When you have Marshawn Lynch in your backfield and you have a first and ten on the three yard line, you DON'T throw a pass. But you did and now we have to wait another year for the Super Bowl 50 to give Russell Wilson a chance to win another Super Bowl.

I thought the Half-time show was a total waste of time and energy, but that passing play has got to top everything!!!

Congrats to the New England Patriots for having the game handed to you with less than a minute to go!
