Actually, as soon as we lost I wanted the FalCLOWNS to win ... Reasoning:

We are going to be a WILD CARD, so that means we will travel to either Seattle or St. Louis most likely to play that game ... Where would you rather go? I'd rather play IN A DOME in St. Louis against a rookie (albeit great) QB. Seattle would be cold/wet/and VERY tough in January ... Thus, rooting for ATL to win makes sense because then St. Louis can still win the NFC worst division.

The way I see it ... We go to St. Louis/then an outside game (most likely cold one too), but then back IN A DOME in ATL ... We make the SB much easier this way.

I'm not so sure about that last part. Frankly, The Falcons are pretenders. Whomever gets them first is probably going to wipe the floor with them.

Think of it this way, guys.

Some of the greatest teams in Super Bowl history went in (and won) as playoff teams.

Super Bowl XV – Oakland Raiders
Super Bowl XXXII – Denver Broncos
Super Bowl XXXV – Baltimore Ravens
Super Bowl XL – Pittsburgh Steelers
Super Bowl XLII- New York Giants

We've got this!!

I didn't get to catch the game so thanks for the link. Jimmy's left hand grab was sick. As for Moore, it stopped being amazing a long time ago... it's become routine in my book.

I think I would rather play Seattle in Seattle than St. Louis, even if it is a dome.

I stress the word, "think". I'm not sold completely on the thought, but Seattle looks bad. Really bad.

I watched at a bar in Oakland with all of the games going. I was the only one watching the saints... still both catches got aplause from the crowd - just on general principle.
