And keep in mind that the Raiders were the first team to win a Super Bowl going in as a Wild Card!!! There's always that hope, but I am getting ahead of myself aren't I? ?? Got to make playoffs first

No, we don't walk away. But when we're holding on to something precious, we run.

Got to make playoffs first LOL. Yes, just look at last year's Packer's... And holy cow, the Packers defense has given up more yards than the offense gained... Admittedly, a bunch of the yards are 'trash yards' when the Pack's been up and is in that stupid "prevent" defense mode but still, that's insane.

My brother is a bigger Raiders fan than I am, and he informed me that I should be grateful I got the Broncos game and only OT of the Raider game. (I love you Jani!). He said the Raiders games a boring as hell, and at least I got to watch the Broncos be destroyed. Which is true, and admittedly, quite fun to watch the Bills more than double Tebow's interceptions for the season. It was also amusing to hear the announcers unintentionally curse the Broncos with the line "If this were a movie, this is when the comeback music would start" What started instead was a comedy of errors all going against the Broncos, and it was wonderful.
I am just thrilled that the Raiders have a chance at the play offs this year (Bronco loss, Raider win). I didn't expect it, so I'm happy no matter what. Thrilled with Hue as the coach.

Yipppeee!! I had a feeling the punter would make it since I saw a highlight of one of his punts and even the talking heads were blown away. And this from a team who had Ray Guy to set the bar for punters

Just saw Bum Phillips walk out onto the field before the Texans/Bengals game. GREAT to see him! No matter how many times the Oilers broke our hearts (Luv Ya Blew it!), we always loved Bum. LUV YA BLUE! Kick the damn door in this year! Also loved how the Texans O-line gave their Elementary schools instead of their colleges during their intros. How cool for their schools and all their sweet teachers who just had an extra big smile from it. Go Texans! (yells it really loud so my Bengals fan kiddo in the basement can hear me....hehehehehehhe)

Bum Phillips was one of my "favorite" coaches. Saw he a lot when he coached for the Saints. Congrats to Texas and Saints. Now on to the next round

Chive, care to make a friendly wager? NNP, k back atcha. ;D no wager necessary. I'm pretty sure that the Steel Curtain is going to put a thwomping on the Donkeys.....but I can certainly hope for an easier game next weekend, right?

I'm only on the Steelers bandwagon for this one game.... after that I'm back to hatin' on them....lol remember Tebow's 29 yard sack loss? I want one of those today & for the player that sacks him to "Tebow" afterwards. Even with a 15 yard penalty, it's still a 14 yard loss. ;D

Hatred of Steelers trumps all for me! Actually I don't really mind Tebow. At least he doesn't normally throw picks and turn the ball over ala Tony Romo.
I'm sure my Ravens friends would probably want me to root for the Steelers. I'm sure they'd prefer the Steelers win as they have a better chance of beating the Patriots at Foxboro than the Broncos. So if Steelers beat the Broncos and the Patriots, then Ravens get Steelers at home and the Ravens have absolutely dominated the Steelers this year.
I promised one of my friends we'd go to Indy if the Ravens make the Super Bowl. I suppose the Steelers winning today gives them an easier shot at that but I really hate the Steelers.
Washington Post had an article today about Roethlisberger's return to being a good Christian like Tebow.

WTF-ever. My hatred of Big Ben is only surpassed by my hatred of Tom Brady. (sorry chiver) Sorry guys, I was rooting for the Broncos over the Steelers. I did not think that they had a chance in hell of pulling it off though. But I am glad they did, because the Steelers vs the Pats would not be a fun game for me to watch. Can't wait to see how next weekend plays out. Go Ravens!

Well it was a good game to watch. I thought I would throw up when they showed Elway jumping up and down in his big boy coat.

Daisy I'm not buying it either. I still don't believe the marriage and all isn't just an attempt at image rehab.
