NFL Conference Championship Games Discussion

Thomkal · 01-18-2009, 08:02 AM

There, happy now?

OMG, I'm so glad it time for football, this week just crawled, I may go insane waiting for the Super Bowl if the Cards win. Good luck to the Eagles, Steelers, and Ravens fans, but of course:

Go Cards!

I think the Steelers will win the other game. Sooner or later a rookie coach and QB are going to make mistakes that are going to cost them in one of these games, and the Steelers will certainly take advantage of them.

E-A-G-L-E-S Eagles!!!!!

Kind of a strange day though. I have to leave for the airport basically right around the time the game is ending, hopefully it gets done on time, which means I have to miss the AFC game. Really dreading this trip too so I at least hope the game turns out right to at least start it off well.

It's also funny how there are suddenly "Cardinals fans". Most weeks there are more fans of the visitors in the stadium. They are probably all just like my brother, the fair weather fan type. He moved out there several years ago and now I hear that he is a "Cardinals fan" and when asked wy he says it's because he lives there. Funny how he was never a "Cardinals fan" the first X number of years when he was out there. Hell, he never even mentioned them once duing the year until this week.

We can now return to our regularly scheduled thread....

E-A-G-L-E-S Eagles!!!!

Fuck the Iggles! Fuck McChoke! Go Cards!

Chubby · 01-18-2009, 11:23 AM

Go Eagles!

Funny a Cowboys fan would use the word Choke, but I guess they are experts at watching something choke (Romo, the king of choke).... How long has it been since they've even won a playoff game?

Buccaneer · 01-18-2009, 11:48 AM

Go Cards. Go Anyone-But-the-Steelers.

Buccaneer · 01-18-2009, 11:55 AM

My wife and son always watched the early pre-game show on ESPN and just happened to catch TJ with that holodeck thing. I had not seen that before but that was very cool.

Eaglesfan27 · 01-18-2009, 12:32 PM

I can't wait for the Eagles game to start. Just trying to keep busy to make the wait easier. I haven't been this excited for a game since the USC-Texas game. Hopefully this one will go better.

I'm headed over my dad's now. He's the only other Eagles fan I know in the area. I've learned to temper my excitement but it is ramping up now!

Longer than the Cardinals have now

Thomkal · 01-18-2009, 12:35 PM

i just hope they are two well played, close games without any serious injuries for any of the teams. But after that...

Go Cards!

There aren't any I know down here, so I'll be sharing my excitement with those on the board.

Actually, the Cardinals had already won a playoff game since the Cowboys' last playoff win. They beat the Cowboys.

Since the Cowboys last playoff win the following teams have had playoff wins:

Arizona 3
Atlanta 4
Baltimore 7
Carolina 6
Chicago 2
Denver 8
Green Bay 8
Indianapolis 6
Jacksonville 4
Miami 3
Minnesota 5
New England 17
New Orleans 2
New York Giants 6
New York Jets 3
Oakland 4
Philadelphia 10
Pittsburgh 9
San Diego 3
San Francisco 3
Seattle 4
St. Louis 6
Tampa Bay 5
Tennessee 5
Washington 2

25 of the 31 other teams have won a playoff game in that time span. So in reality the Cowboys are in the same league as:

Detroit
Cleveland
Buffalo
Houston
Cincinnati

Thomkal · 01-18-2009, 02:13 PM

Man that was a perfect start for the Cards-woohoo!

Radii · 01-18-2009, 02:14 PM

Great drive for Arizona to open the game.

Dr. Sak · 01-18-2009, 02:14 PM

Can't miss tackles like that and expect to win

Lathum · 01-18-2009, 02:15 PM

Fitzgerald is good.

Buccaneer · 01-18-2009, 02:15 PM

Go Kurt (and Fitzgerald)!

Lathum · 01-18-2009, 02:16 PM

BAD KICKER!!`

Thomkal · 01-18-2009, 02:18 PM

yeah that was just dumb to give the Eagles good field position like that

Lathum · 01-18-2009, 02:19 PM

and then a free play for the Eagles

Eaglesfan27 · 01-18-2009, 02:19 PM

Love seeing them come out with what appeared to be a planned run for McNabb.

Thomkal · 01-18-2009, 02:25 PM

well kept them out of the endzone at least

Izulde · 01-18-2009, 02:27 PM

Although I'm rooting for the Eagles because of McNabb, I'm fine with either team winning.

Eaglesfan27 · 01-18-2009, 02:32 PM

Heck of a hit on Fitzgerald. Nice to see the defense come back this drive.

Neuqua · 01-18-2009, 02:35 PM

McNabb is having all the time in the world.

Eaglesfan27 · 01-18-2009, 02:37 PM

What a great job by DeSean Jackson to keep hustling after that play and then a perfect strip.

Dr. Sak · 01-18-2009, 02:37 PM

Heads up play by Jackson

Thomkal · 01-18-2009, 02:38 PM

man what a change of emotion that was on those turnovers

Dr. Sak · 01-18-2009, 02:39 PM

Mcnabb needs to calm down

Thomkal · 01-18-2009, 02:46 PM

woohoo akers streak is over

Eaglesfan27 · 01-18-2009, 02:48 PM

Fuck!

Please be on the Cardinals..

Northwood_DK · 01-18-2009, 02:48 PM

Thomkal · 01-18-2009, 02:49 PM

Izulde · 01-18-2009, 02:49 PM

Man, Fitzgerald is -awesome-.

Lathum · 01-18-2009, 02:49 PM

Fitzgerald Is Good

Radii · 01-18-2009, 02:49 PM

Neuqua · 01-18-2009, 02:49 PM

That was a beautiful play.

Northwood_DK · 01-18-2009, 02:50 PM

Thats just to easy for Fitzgerald

SnowMan · 01-18-2009, 02:52 PM

I have a mancrush on Fitzgerald. He's just a beast.

Buccaneer · 01-18-2009, 02:52 PM

Wow. Wow. Wow. I am so glad I saw that. You guys probably heard my wife and son scream all the way to where you are.

Eaglesfan27 · 01-18-2009, 02:55 PM

Kevin Curtis!!!

Eaglesfan27 · 01-18-2009, 02:58 PM

I don't see how that wasn't a penalty.

Danny · 01-18-2009, 02:59 PM

Looked like an easy call to me and I am leaning towards rooting Arizona at this point.

Thomkal · 01-18-2009, 02:59 PM

Cards are getting lucky with their stupid plays not costing them too much so far-bad punt, stupid penalty while McNabb was being sacked, and just two FG's out of it

Danny · 01-18-2009, 03:00 PM

I like both teams though, so it's tough for me to pick a team here. I mostly just want a great game.

Thomkal · 01-18-2009, 03:00 PM

And Joe Buck is not a McNabb fan is he?

Thomkal · 01-18-2009, 03:01 PM

yeah probably should have been an interference penalty there
