  • Super Bowl XLVII – Super Baugh?

    Jim Harbaugh and John Harbaugh are the first pair of brothers to serve as NFL head coaches in the league’s history. Jim, in his debut season as an NFL head coach, led the San Francisco 49ers to a 13-3 record and needs to beat the Giants to reach the Super Bowl. John has led the Baltimore Ravens to the post season for a fourth consecutive time and his second AFC championship game.

  • Ravens vs Patriots – Brady Ready to Win AFC for Fifth Time

    With Tom Brady in his current form, with the Baltimore Ravens struggling at home against the Houston Texans and having a pretty unimpressive road record this season, the New England Patriots are entering the AFC Championship game as favorites to make their fifth Super Bowl under Bill Belichick.

  • Saints vs 49ers – Alex Smith Rules Epic Fourth Quarter

    Alex Smith has been waiting for this moment since becoming the number one pick in the 2005 draft.

  • Broncos vs Patriots – Poor Tebow and Perfect Brady

    Tom Brady hasn’t won a playoff game in quite sometime. Four years to be exact, followed by two losses on the Patriots’ first game of the postseason.

  • How will Divisional Round Weekend End?

    The 2011-2012 NFL playoffs continue this weekend with the Divisional playoffs kicking off in San Francisco, hosting their first postseason game since 2003.

  • Everything Clicking For New York Giants at Perfect Time

    Eli Manning can’t get touched, the New York Giants can’t lose. Winning their third straight win-or-you’re-out home game, the Giants completely dominated the playoff-troubled Atlanta Falcons, keeping their offense well at bay, advancing to a Packers showdown after a 24-2 win.

  • How Will Wild Card Weekend End?

    The 2011-2012 NFL Playoffs kick off in a few hours, getting us started with Wild card weekend. The Houston Texans will play their first ever postseason game, but too many problems at QB and over reliance on Arian Foster will make life very hard against Anrew Dalton and the Bengals.
