I do feel the manner of the result has got to help the Vikings, they really did fall apart in the second half but now they've got through that hopefully the nerves won't be as bad and they'll take any setbacks in stride.

...please? :ohdear:

The Steelers should be applauded for letting other teams get over them over the past few years, really its just the Pats that ruin the parity in the AFC. The Patriots are the Hulk Hogans of the NFL when you think about it.

yeah, as much as Nick Foles doesn’t worry me, i think the Eagles having home field is being super underrated. Weather is supposed to be better but still, being on the road and a potential emotional come down doesn’t make me feel like the NFC Championship is a lock.

conversely, the Vikings won on a closing seconds miracle after blowing a 17 point lead so all bets are off for them at this point.

as far as blown leads go it's pretty acceptable to have drew brees come back on you

As happy as I am about most of those game results none of it will matter if the pats beat everyone. I'm so loving tired of the pats. It's been almost a full 20 years of Tom Brady. Just go away already so other teams that cheat less aggressively can have a chance

Does anyone else not see the writing on the wall? The Saints were the only team that could beat the Pats due to having a good pass rush, two stud HBs, and a HOF QB,

Go Bortles/Foles

Bortles/Keenum is also very acceptable

The Vikings will lose to the Patriots by a missed field goal as time expires.

It’s the most Vikings thing that could happen.

Man, whoever wins the NFCCG I'm gonna be real excited/happy for them in the Super Bowl. Either we make it and get the Nick Foles/Blake Bortles matchup America craves or we get a chance to avenge the Pats cheating in the Super Bowl.

Conversely if the Vikings win they'll be playing a Super Bowl in their own stadium which is neat as hell, plus they've never won a Super Bowl before.

Exactly. He doesn't get to miss that tackle if he doesn't make the interception in the 3rd quarter.

There is a bunch of discussion going on about it in the Coaching Carousel thread. Some people are saying that they offered him the extension if he would fire his OC.

Yeah. Mularkey just lost a power struggle with the GM they hired last year, nothing more complicated than that. "Who gets to pick the coordinators" is the most common battleground for coach-versus-GM power struggles
