I think it would be epic if Jacksonville and Tennessee faced off in the AFC Championship. It'd be fresh and different.

I was living down hear Jacksonville a year and a half ago thinking, "this local Jags team is awful. I'm glad I'm not a local who has to root for them." It would be priceless if they made the Super Bowl a year later, especially with Blake Bortles still at the helm.

If we had a Bortles-Keenum Super Bowl, I'd die laughing. The sheer ineptitude of that Jax-Buf game was great. It actually made me appreciate a defensive struggle.

On the NFC side it's hard to pick. If the Patriots did make it, it'd be nice to see the Saints face them because (1) that's an interesting match-up we haven't seen in a Super Bowl yet and (2) the Saints could hang with their offense I think. Plus, it's surprising a team and QB that good haven't won a couple.

 

I expect Vikings vs. Pats, but the Vikes always find a way to lose (maybe Favre will come out of retirement to throw an INT in the closing seconds while in FG range to spare them the chance to shank another), so let's go with ATL - NE 2, Electric Boogaloo. I wouldn't even watch. **** the Pats, and **** the Atlanta 28-3 Falcons, you had your chance and deserve nothing good.

I also am not a Steelers guy, they can go away.

I'd be cool with any other team other than those 3.

I think the NFL would literally rather see the heat death of the universe before having this happen hahaha, that would be so fantastic though. AFC Championship, BLAKE BORTLES vs. MARCUS MARIOTA! 13-6!

 

Haha...I'm dreaming of a Bortles--Keenum Super Bowl. That'd be priceless.

Hey, I skipped the CFP National Championship...why not skip the Super Bowl!? Haha...I wouldn't...but I'd think about it!

 

I want Brees to win another SB. But my interest is primarily seeing someone defeat the Patriots and Steelers. Patriots is obvious, but Steelers have most SB wins and I don't want them to get ahead of us on that list by adding more.

 

Haha...don't want to be mean, but Katrina was 2005 which means their Super Bowl win came after that.

Maybe they deserve a post-BP Super Bowl, too?

 

as long as the pats aren't there I don't care but I would like to see Drew and Big Ben dual it out. I honestly think a lot of teams are sleeping on the saints and they may shock Minn. I wouldn't mind Minn and Jax just to get some new faces in their and watch minn play at home in the super bowl.

But in all as long as the pats don't go im ok with it, anyone in the NFC im ok with.

 

My dream scenario would be for the Jags to somehow make it, but ya know.

I like MN and NO about the same, so winner of that likely to play NE in the SB.

The fact MN would have “home field” in that game has me leaning that way.

 

Growing up a short 3hrs drive away from NO I used to go a lot. I used to love it and the food...there are no words.

However, I will never take my kids to NO until the crime is under control. Hell, I won't go back myself until that happens. It's really a shame that in the last 20-25 years NO has become so rampant with crime that it's more dangerous than Afghanistan is today. I remember going there and seeing some of the beautiful 19th century homes and buildings...the last time I went some of these homes have been trashed. My last three visits I was offered crack or something else each time. I saw a guy stab a police officer's horse with a broken bottle. I saw a dude get stabbed in the neck with a knife. It smells like piss. It's disgusting...

 

(1) who you're personally rooting for to make the show:
I'd love to see a Saints-Steelers Super Bowl. A very good matchup and lots of points to keep things interesting. The worst case scenario would be a Pats-Falcons rematch. You had your chance Atlanta and choked it away.

I'd settle for any Super Bow without the Pats in it. A Jags-Eagles game would be interesting in a train wreck kind of way. Which QB throws the game for his team? Why not both? :)

(2) who you realistically expect to actually make there:
*Sigh* A Pats-Vikings matchup. Case Keenum remembers that he is Case Keenum, and the moment is TOO BIG for him to handle. His meltdown game sinks a great defensive effort by the Viking defense, who had Brady playing scared most of the day.

 

ATL vs NE Part 2

Personally, I would like to see a PHI vs PIT

 

NO smells so effing bad. It ruins everything.

 

Mike Zimmer's a really good guy whose been through a lot off the field. Loved him when he was in Cincinnati, so I'm pulling for the Vikings. My prediction for the Super Bowl is:

Minnesota/New Orleans winner vs. New England.

 

A 'Civil War' game for Pennsylvania would have been epic and a great storyline.... if only Wentz had not gotten injured.

 

PHI’s defense should not be slept on.... they can get them there if the offense plays smart and eats up the ToP.... If they go out there having Foles tryna sling em to a win, it could get ugly... They have to ride Ajayi and Blount but more Ajayi

 

I think it’s inevitible that either new england or pittsburgh will be there. I just dont want both there, both franchises annoy me.

Heres hoping Blake Bortles and Mariota play out of their minds this weekend, and also that their defenses bury ben and tom six feet under.

 

ATL had their shot but they’ll beat Nick Foles this week imo. They’ll lose to the Saints-Vikings winner which is hopefully the Saints.

Pitt and NE were both gifted cupcakes facing Mariota and Bortles. I’d imagine either would be much less thrilled seeing KC or Baltimore had they not choked their seasons away (I feel no sympathy for Baltimore). I think Pitt gets their revenge in Foxboro as the Steelers will lean on the Pats D with Bell.

Steelers over Saints.

As long as it’s anyone but NE and The Iggles Im happy.

 

I'd like to see Vikes vs Jax

 

Honestly, anyone but the Patriots,
I'd love to see Brees get another Super Bowl win.
Saints are really who I'm rooting for, but I honestly don't mind any of the remaining teams in the NFC. I like the Eagles too, but their season ends against Atlanta this weekend.

Who I actually think will be there?
Atlanta vrs New England part 2.

 

Thank you jacksonville from sparing us the patriots/steeler circle jerk next week. Now go bury Tom and kick the patriots ***. Big Jaguars fan here next week!

 

I agree, that PIT Defense would of got torn through like wet toilet paper next week by NE.

Jax D got lit up too, but also, by one of the best offenses in the NFL... NE’s offense isn’t PIT’s...

 

I find it amazing that Jacksonville was good in the late 90s/early 2000's, then they sucked and are now good again. Same with the saints. They sucked, won the super bowl, sucked again and are in the playoffs again. Philly too. Somehow, the Dolphins have not gotten any better. Mediocre at best for pretty much this entire century. How do other teams do it, and we can't? Its extremely frustrating

 

I was thinking the same thing on my drive home last night after the Eagles won....

I was like “man, they had Donovan take em to 4 straight NFC championship games a little over ten years ago and now they are back and we haven’t won a playoff game in that time” lmao

Even worse, the Eagles haven’t WON a playoff game since 2008... the radio DJ was telling fans to enjoy it because “it’s been such a looooooong time since we WON a playoff game”

Meanwhile, Miami is mediocre and fans will tell me to have patience. LMAO that is funny

 

Mcnaab was SUCH a product of his environment. That was one overrated QB.

 

Looking more and more like a defensive Super Bowl. Vikings vs Jags.

 

The jaguars have drafted BPA the past couple seasons, signed some nice free agents like Campbell, made a trade for a real playmaker in Dareus, waited for them to mature.

They simply didnt settle for potential, they went after BPA and let time take care of the rest.

 

Ive been preaching bpa for a long time, and hopefully someday we finally take that approach. Until then we are a team running in mud.

 

I agree(even though that had very little to do with my post lol). Big Red was the reason for their success (and playoff demise).

 

Anything’s without the patriots in it.

Sadly it’s going to be Minnesota vs pats

I feel min Minnesota wins in a close one

 

OMG! The ending in that Minnesota-Saints game. WOW.

Actually, that was one of the most interesting pair of playoff games I've ever seen on the same day.

 

I don't see how that db for the saints can have a job in the morning. What kind of tackle attempt was that, lol? Unreal.

 

Of the 4 teams qb's in the championship games next week, case keenum-undrafted, Blake Bortles- 4 years in the league and Carson Wentz, although injured and out while having a great year, has been in the league for 2 years. Then there is his back up, nick foles who was drafted in the 3rd round the same year as Tannehill, has gotten his team to the nfc championship game. Tannehill fans, please tell me how many more years he needs, to be as good as them and get us to the promise land

 

Hate to be that kid on the plane ride home..

 

I know right? Take off the pads, slink into the stands and never be seen publicly again.

 

Marcus Williams is a stud free safety that made a very costly mistake. Saints fans arent going to give up on the kid, he made the INT that brought the saints back in the game. He was defeated and fell to his knees on his way to the locker room.

That last play will either make him or break him
