If Espn had their way it would be an all out Eagles vs Steelers superbowl.

It's a Steelers-Cardinals Super Bowl.

Yeah that's the other option... usually its opposite whatever I pick...

But that matchup would basically be Steelers/Seahawks all over again....

Yeah, but the Steelers benefited from some questionable calls.

I wonder why the Fox crew isn't in Arizona? They usually are at the Championship games.

This Frank Caliendo **** needs to end.

Yes it does.

Eagles vs Ravens

exactly.

Alright, time for our drinking games of the week.

Eagles at Cardinals - Any time an announcer mentions the Cindarella or underdog (or some varient) story of the Cardinals, take a shot. Any time the announcer says "emotional leader," (or anything like that) regarding Brian Dawkins take a shot.

Ravens at Steelers - Any time an announcer comments on Flacco or Harbaugh being a rookie QB/Coach take a shot. Any time they say they are not playing/coaching like a rookie take two shots. For the Steelers, any time a mention of the Steelers putting the focus back on Willie Parker is made, take a shot.

Have fun t:

 

[Matt]

exactly.

I refuse to write the Cardinals off. Both Fitzgerald and Boldin being on the field makes it very difficult to not focus on coverage over the blitz and if the Eagles are not able to put their famed pressure on Warner...they are in trouble. Factor in James playing like James again...and well...that is a dangerous offense.

Arizona draws first blood. 7-0 Cards.

Liver killer.

Damn good looking drive. Arizona pretty much did whatever they wanted.

That crowd is insane. It's like a college game atmosphere.

 

[Showtime]

Nice kick.

Hopefully, Arizona will give Whisenhunt an extension in the offseason, regardless of the outcome of this game.

A Pittsburgh-Arizona Super Bowl would be interesting from this perspective:

- Russ Grimm, the Cardinals Offensive Line Coach almost became the Steelers head coach after Cowher left, but Mike Tomlin blew Steelers management away in his interview and thus became the Steelers head coach. Whisenhunt was also a candidate for the Steelers job.

 

[BlackLantern]

either Tomlin or Harbaugh in the Super Bowl says a lot of the younger coachers we are seeing, in the NFL and other sports....shows you don't have to be a crusty old dinosaur to be a head coach....

 

[The Game]

wow

 

[Dark Donnie]

THank god

 

[Hunter Rider]

Great play from Jackson.

 

[Mister J]

Cripes, Cardinals.
