    Weird how the refs are letting D backs damn near assault wr's in the playoffs.

    Be more concerned with Atlanta's D

    Very true. Good thing Minnesota's defense is better than theirs (if they make it to us, or if we make it passed this weekend).

    Nothing is guaranteed after watching that choke show the Chiefs put up.

    It is going both ways. Have seen many blatant push offs by WR's.

    It's getting to be the NBA. No blood? No foul/penalty.

    Will be interesting to see what happens Case has had an amazing year will be interesting to see if he can throw open receivers when timing is off.

    It's his first career playoff game. I'm not as optimistic as others.

    I think the game this weekend will be one of the best of the playoffs.

    Even veteran QB's can choke. Alex Smith being a good example.

    Next weeks game will go a long way in determining Case's financial future.

    Saints could win the superbowl and never have to play outside, but I don't think they get through the Vikes.

    Hoping the Bears can steal some of your coaches, is it possible or are they locked down?

    I want the Bears D coordinator in Green Bay, rumor has it might just happen. The coordinators for the vikings are off limits to interview now till the vikings are eliminated.

    Our coaches/coordinators have been interviewing all last week. Hate to see any of them go but it is what it is.

    Bears D coordinator interviewed for the top spot, but no way that is what Pace wants for Mitch. Top ten D with no pro bowlers is hard to do.

    Exactly why I want him in Green Bay, even though we all know the PB does not mean crap, hell Harrison Smith an all pro did not make it.

    Im a firm believer that defense gets you to the playoffs but, qb play in the playoffs gets you to the super bowl. In the NFC theres Keenum, Brees, Ryan, and Foles. AFC is Brady, Roethlisberger, Bortles, and Mariota. I'll take either the saints or falcons in the nfc and pats or steelers in afc.

    Definitely not a good feeling going into the playoffs with a QB with zero playoff appearances under his belt. Even though he's been one of the best QB's all year, playoffs are a different beast.

    Best defense against the most accurate qb ever will be a great game.

    The refs will be an equalizer if they continue to let the d backs play like they did this last weekend I think Case will struggle more than Drew.
