I consider 3 division championships, 2 NFC championship games and 1 Super Bowl appearance in 4 years to be a success. I would not mess with success like that.

I'm glad the Broncos got a bye week. 22 names on the injury report? They need the rest. And although the score against the Raiders looks impressive, the Raiders were comically bad, and the Broncos were having trouble finishing things up. The score was a relief but not a huge confidence-builder.
I think the first game of the playoffs will be the bellwether of how they'll do for the remainder, assuming (which I do) that there is a remainder.

Indeed. I'm just scratching my head about it. I wonder if Harbaugh would be making this move now if he had landed Peyton Manning when Manning wasn't tied to a team.
Yeah baby! Pats bye and home field. Buffalo was sooooo excited they won in Foxborough after however many years. Since 2000 I think? I laughed. Let's hope they don't have to play anyone with a great defense just yet.
Got this little guy for Christmas
Before the playoffs let's see how many get this right...Super Bowl predictions? Go!

I'm not really sure what happened with Colin Kaepernick this season. A couple of years ago, he looked unstoppable but he really looked lost this season.
The AFC playoffs are going to be tough. I think New England, Denver, Baltimore or Pittsburgh are good enough to go to the Super Bowl and Indy and Cincy aren't too bad either.
I'm just not sure anyone of them will be able to beat Seattle, though. Which I believe is what the team from the AFC will have to do in order to win it all.
Yup, the Jets win over the Dolphins has pretty much guaranteed they took themselves out of position to get one of the two marquee quarterbacks, and the top wide receiver, in next year's draft. Positions they desperately need to improve, along with the cornerback position.
Alas... just another season with the New York Jets. Well... There's always the next decade.

The Dolphin's defense was non existent in the 2nd half of the season. Letting Geno Smith carve them up was a definite low-light.
Ugly game for the Pats on Sunday. Offensive line needs to get its act together before the first playoff game!
Totally agree! At least during the regular season they beat almost everyone they might play in a potential playoff scenario. With the exception of the Ravens and the Steelers which the Ravens have a sordid history with the Pats and the Steelers could be iffy. BUT I think the Pats offense can outmatch both of those. Now a potential Super Bowl scenario is another story. They lost to Green Bay in the regular season and we all know about that Seahawks D. I hope they make it in, how many more serious years can Brady have? As long as there are no injuries they're going to be a force to be reckoned with. I don't want the Broncos in the SB, that I do know for sure! Unless I can point and laugh at Peyton like last year.
Ok, let's see if I can embarrass myself with NFL playoff predictions. AFC: Steelers knock off the Ravens, Indy knocks off the Bengals. NFC: Not sure if anyone can hang with Dallas right now so Dallas over the Lions and Carolina over Arizona.
I heard Brady agreed to a restructuring of 24 million on his contract so they acquire some people over the off season. The Pats will load up for next season. Brady's still looks sharp so I'm thinking he plays out the end of his contract at least.
There's nothing I hate worse than seeing the Cowboys on a friggin' roll......ARRRRGGHHHH!!I completely agree so I know you're wrong.

There's just something wonderful about seeing "sad pissed Jerry" over "happy gloating Jerry"
LMAO, I hear ya.There's just something wonderful about seeing "sad pissed Jerry" over "happy gloating Jerry"
Kinda shocked that LSU just fell to Notre Dame, 31-28. Oh, well. I didn't really have a dog in that race, but I did make a bet that the SEC would go undefeated in their bowl games. There goes five bucks.
I don't understand the sentiment, but we've all got our own. I got through the Elway years, and I'm a fan of the man as a football player - as a person, somewhat more reserved in my enthusiasm. But I don't have those reservations with Manning. He's completely generous with his team and with his community, he's talented (albeit fading), he's smart, he's not arrogant, he's a good role model. I don't understand the schadenfreude attached to him.
Anyway, I'd love to see the Broncos in the Superbowl, although after last year, I'd be watching the game peeking through my fingers.
