Packers season over for this year.
Rodgers was poor and was intercepted 2 or 3 times which for him is unprecedented. To add to that he was sacked about 4 times mainly because he wanted too much time to throw the ball.

Minnesota take the division, bastards.
Saints had to win to hold on to top spot with Carolina hot on their heels.

Big win for the Patriots which should see them through as divisional champions.

Jaguars looking pretty good this year. One to watch maybe.
Still early days but I'd go Pats v Rams for the SB, with the Jags and the Saints as long shots.

Perhaps you are right . To be fair, you’d always go with one of the greatest QB’s of all time if he is fit.
Just didn’t expect him to be quite so rusty

You are right JTC, but I don’t think his form was great before he was injured

Bloody hell Johno! Nice work mate!

I thought with 14 this round that I was a sneaky chance to catch SHAM. Like most I thought it was a race for 2nd.

Now to hold onto 3rd.

Sidebar- Falcons now a sneaky chance to grab 4th seed if we can roll both the Saints and Panthers in the final 2 weeks.

Still- I think it will be a Vikings/Steelers bowl.

thanks valley
couple games decided with last kick, they go the other way and your possibly top.

I want steelers superbowl bad, but the AB loss is huge, time for JUJU and Bryant etc to step up.


bell going to be massive last few games

Brown will back back for the playoffs. Steelers need to beat Texans away & Browns at home to get the first week off.
Before yesterday, I thought Pittsburgh had been ordinary, riding their luck & winning close games due to opponents cracking. Against the Pats yesterday, they were dominant. A couple of key plays killed them (where was the double coverage on Gronkowski when they went for the 2 pt conversion at the death???) And let’s face it, the grub should’ve been suspended for at least 3 for his spear into his opponent on the ground the week before. No doubt he’ll get a week for taunting like JuJu did previously - yeah right.
Add to that we were missing Shazier & Brown, our 2 most important players. I’d hope to get another crack at them.
Having said that, if the Super Bowl winner doesn’t come out of the NFC this year, I’m not sure when it will.
The Vikings, Rams, Saints, Falcons and even the Panthers are better than New England & Pittsburgh IMO

Wash you mouth out, Vikings grrrrrrrr nooooooooooooooo

Strong division and you have the toughest draw. Both Saints and Panthers play Tampa whilst you have to play both of them in your last 2 games. Newton is in pretty good form too.

Rams are very good. My Saints are good offensively but I still reckon our defense is suspect against better teams.

Steeler/Pats/Rams top 3 chances for me. Vikes look good but tend to fall in post season somewhat.

Not over yet re. Tipping. Spargo, FE and Pels haven't played their jokers yet from what I can see. Spargo in with a shot for 1st, Pels and FE within range for 3rd.

Steelers are my pick for the AFC this season. I do agree with Spargo's assessment that the SB champion should come from the NFC conference this year. Atlanta won't get past the Divisional round. It will come from Minnesota or LA.

Haha, not ideal for Packers fans!

Atlanta jagged the win against the Saints a couple of weeks back. I don't expect us to be so lucky this week.

I'll take your word on Newton as I haven't watched much of the Panthers this season, but I fully expect us to go 0-2 heading into the post season, which could still see us miss out on that 6th seed.
