    That's a weird fan base to hate. We never make the playoffs. Giants I understand

    My thought process exactly. Giants defense is top notch and that's why I didn't want to see them in the divisional round. I'll always take the team with the weaker defense in the playoffs. GB got a lot of injuries too. We should be able to have a lot of success on the ground again. Like you said, Rodgers will be Rodgers, we just gotta minimize it by dominating time of possession which I believe we can do.

    Both NFC games are gonna be pretty great imo. I think Rodgers will probably be too much for Dallas and I don't really see the Cowboys as an offense built for a s---t out, but it should be a very good game nonetheless. I feel like Atlanta wins too for similar reasons as the Packers. Chiefs-Steelers should be good, too. I wanna pick the Steelers but KC at home is lethal.

    My picks
    Falcons 28, Seahawks 21
    Patriots 31, Texans 10
    Steelers 28, Chiefs 24
    Packers 31, Cowboys 28

    Stems from early 00s and late 90s. That's why I mainly hate Jets fans, cuz of the 90s

    Wow the Eagles are the best team in the division in 2017. Feels great. Gonna feel even greater when this lucky season by Dak Prescott crumbles next week and he never lives up to this year again

    The cowboys may not be built to survive a shootout (although the steelers game may suggest otherwise), but they ARE built to avoid getting into them in the first place. Run the ball, control the clock and play keep away. It's been our formula all season and it's gotten us to 13-3.

    Packers defense really is trash... Eli so garbage this year, but I thought he was gonna pull off some miracle bs.

    I don't think Dallas will let it be a shootout. They'll probably back everyone up on defense and make Rodgers throw underneath, and run the ball on them.

    Giants were really the only team I thought that could beat Dallas in Dallas. Maybe even Seattle too. Green Bay doesn't match up well with anyone in the NFC anymore other than the Falcons, maybe.

    hope these divisional matchups are better than wildcard blowout weekend...gianta/packers 1st half was entertaining...

    Patriots -16 favorites over Texans! wow

    Dallas -4 over Green Bay - ill take hot rod Rodgers

    KC -1.5 over Pitt - I think Pittsburgh pulls it off

    Atlanta -4.5 over Seattle - ill take Seattle plus the pts

    I'll take Rodgers over Brady any day. He's just a hair better than him because of his scrambling ability. As good as Tom Brady is, he has the luxury of having the GOAT HC. Imagine if a Peyton Manning or Aaron Rodgers had Bill Belichick defenses behind him for support. If Tom Brady had been drafted by say the Lions or Browns he would be nothing. Tom Brady is great no doubt, but he's always had a great team and coach around him. Aaron Rodgers has... Mike McCarthy lol.

    :ummmm:

    BTW was good to see Aaron get over that hump last night, 9 years into his career lol. I know its tough getting those home games with the Lions, Vikings and Bears in their division.

    Nice maybe if he wins another SB this year we can put him in the same atmosphere at TB12. If Brady wins again though hes even more untouchable.

    lol at "he would be nothing if he went to the Browns or Lions" please stop posting again.

    Lol Brady bailed out the Pats defenses all the time early in his career. I loved our defense back then, but Brady saved us so many times.

    We didn't have this shut down defense like most believe. We just didn't have an explosive offense. Totally different.

    Winning is a team effort. Tom Brady has always had a better team. That's just a simple fact. Let it go bro it's not personal. Aaron Rodgers is a hair better because of his pocket presence and football IQ and WR coordination. They both have great arms, Rodgers does a little bit more, with less. :kanye3:

    Brady has had a changing cast of weapons for his entire career.

    Until Rodgers leads a team to conference title games with nobodies like Doug Gabriel and Reche Caldwell, then we can talk lol. What's funny too, is those years were Brady's most impressive, cuz we had trash defenses and no weapons, yet he STILL almost managed to bring us to Super Bowls.
