NFL Playoffs, Wildcard Day 2 / Open Sports Thread - UPDATED

Once again, we are into the post season. Yesterday's playoffs thread was modestly attended, which is cool... I expect today might be more involved games, with the PATS and JETS coming up momentarily, and the GIANTS and IGGLES later today.

We had two 'eh' games yesterday:

The Colts roughed up the Chiefs, yet still looked lackluster, with Peyton's picks.. .the upside for the Colts: They seemed to have gotten their defense. Good a time as any for that to arrive, eh? I don't think the Colts get past Baltimore next week.

Meanwhile, the Seahawks dodge repeated bullets, some misfired, rather than evaded, and found a way to win. The stop short of the first was tremendous work for the 'Hawk defense, but I don't think Hasselback was going to bring them the length of the field to get back after the Dallas FG...oop. Too bad no Dallas FG. Tony Romo prolly didn't sleep well last night (which, by the way, is what you're supposed to do after a collosal, outcome-effecting screw up, ehem, GEORGE). Seattle can get past Chicago, but not New Orleans... so let's root for Philly :)

Go 'Hawks! (thus Iggles!!) and Go Pats!!

Update [2007-1-7 16:14:41 by JD SoOR]: As we approach the Two Minute Warning of the early game, it looks like New England has booked their tickets to San Diego for next week., up by 21. We  haven't fallen all the way off the recent diary list or the late game, but someone might need to sacrifice their daily diary to give us an Iggles/Jints thread.

Fun times.

And to make this a valid liberal diary: Impeach!! As Pavel Chekov said, "Now vould be a gud time!"
