Maybe. Still, to win at Heinz in the playoffs is no small accomplishment.

I do think time is catching up with Roethlisberger. He's taken a lot of punishment over the years.

oh yeah winning on the road especially at heinz field is something to hang your hat on but hopefully the Jags arent content. Jags defense will need to score. I dont see Bortles beating Brady.

Crazy final score. I'm guessing some people made out by taking the over.

Nor do I, but.....

The book on beating Brady is pressure, and the Jags delivered a ton of pressure on opposing QB's all season. And when it comes to beating the Patriots, who better to play the Devil's Advocate than Tom Coughlin, the guy most responsible for denying the Pats two more rings and the guy given the most credit for the Jag's turnaround this year? Personally, I will still put my money on the Pats but I think it's gonna be a close game either way.

Saints are playing like canned ass right now.

Yep. The Jags are a tougher match up for the Pats than the Steelers. Should be a great game.

As long Bortles doesn't try to beat Brady by himself, they'll be competitive in the game.  Hand off to Fournette, don't turn it over, play great defense, and channel your inner 2002 Bucs, and you'll stay in the game.

Wow, the Saints just knew they had won. It's like they just quit playing.

A LOT of disappointed people around here that are Saints fans...LOL!!

Never saw the Jags beating the Steelers...wow, that must have been a game.

I did see bits early on of the Pats/Titans. Never thought in a million years I'd ever root for the Titans, but oh, look, the Titans rolled over and died. What a shocker.

Predictions: Pats will beat the crap out of the Jags, and it doesn't matter who wins with the Vikes/Eagles, because the Pats will kill them in the Super Bowl, too.  :buck2:

Hope the Vikings/Eagles game is good. That looks like it could be an old-school throw down.
