Damn that game was horrendous for the Steelers D.

Ben didn't look too well.


Man now I really want the Texans to beat the Ravens. I can see us beating the Patriots in the AFC Championship game-- since they have almost no defense whatsoever against Arian Foster/Ben Tate.

I'm the biggest NYG fan as of right now. But, only until the conclusion of their game against the Fackers, of course.

Dude, calm down. We have the best running defense not the best throwing, they have one of the best throwing offenses, do the math.

If we can get to brees fast enough we have a great shot I think. Hopefully the elements of the stick help us out. I'm glad we are home so we don't have to hear chants of "who dat"..

It would be a good game. Unfortunately, the Saints will win, unless the 49ers D sacks Brees at LEAST 4 times and hurries him 10x more. I bet you guys will win if you guys are losing by half. Brees always has so much energy/momentum when he gets out of halftime with a close score/losing score.

Wind, known for that and the fact that NO plays In a dome I'm hoping that playing in a slightly colder in environment effects them some how.

I understand that facts are facts and the saints have most likely the best throwing offense in the league, but it's the playoffs man, anything can happen, I wouldn't count anyone out.

Meh, the wind MAYBE affects them but cold? It's not exactly snowing up there. As for the wind they'll probably just go with shorter pass plays.

Well yeah I know. I was throwing the 49ers out of the picture of winning, but IMO, I think the Saints will win (think).

I just don't see Alex Smith matching half of Bree's throwing stats (TD to Yards)

I haven't worried about the Niners D all season and I'm not starting now, next week is going to be a great matchup. However, what has worried me all season, and continues to do so, is our inability to score TDs in the redzone; scoring just FGs isn't going to cut it against a team like the Saints. Nonetheless, I can't wait for next week!

Also, I would love to see a Harbaugh vs Harbaugh SB.

Big Blue will go into Green Bay fairly confident that they can leave with a win. They barely lost to GB in early December, with Eli pretty much matching Aaron's stat-line. This time though, the Giants' running game looks to be in full swing (read: ball control).

I do agree though.... but then again most sports fans get way ahead of themselves.

Yea, let's make sure the lights come on.

The only way that will happen is if Tim Tebow does a Tom Brady show (passing all game) or if the Broncos D steps up once again.

Tom Brady will score at least 3 TDs. It is a matter of-- if you can score also.

If we had Matt Schaub, we would be the favorites to win the AFC. All the eyes are on the Ravens next weekend, and we have nothing to lose-- expect a good game and don't forget, Flacco is the Tony Romo of the playoffs (and Matt Ryan as you can see today)
can't wait for this weekend. we host the texans at OUR stadium. lights out. we are horrible on the road but fantastic at home. we'll beat them just like we did a few weeks ago.

Am I confident my 49ers will win? Yes!! Am I over-looking a very dangerous Saints team? No.

But as was shown by the Broncos yesterday as well as the Seahawks of last year, anything can happen in the playoffs.

Well, I've never really stepped out of the 4G forums...but I figured it's time the biggest Broncos fan east of the Mississippi checks in

What a game last night! I'm still in a state of euphoria.

We have another tough one this Saturday, but I expect another great outing by this young team! Until then I'm gonna enjoy the fact that we have at least one more week of football.

You need to brush up on your understanding of the AFC/NFC structure and its implications for potential Super Bowl matchups.

+1, Just remember, if you play them twice in the regular season, you'll never meet in the Super Bowl.
