I would be all for it.

That loss could be the dagger in the 49ers playoff hopes. They've got a rough schedule in their next 8 and need to win probably at least 6 of those games to make the playoffs.
I always enjoy Manning getting destroyed at this point in his career. Reminds me of a certain other player I always rooted against as he tried to extend his career.
Patriots with huge bend but don't break today... gave up a lot of yards and first downs but only 21 points.
Broncos are like the Packers: live by the sword, die by the sword.
Goes back to a conversation my dad and brother were having today. You need a great defense and good special teams even moreso than an elite QB. For as good as A-rod is (he's the difference between us being 6-10 and 10-6/11-5), we won't win another Super Bowl until our defensive and ST issues are fixed. Every time we've played the 49er's, Kaepernick looks unstoppable. Seattle did whatever they wanted to do to us this year.
There's different ways to get it done. If you have a hot QB, you can win with an average defense as Baltimore did in 2012. As for ST, the Packers ST units are better now than they were the last time the Packers won the Super Bowl. That's not an issue. What is and issue is the up and down nature of the Packers defense. At times this year they've played well enough to make the Packers a serious contender. At other times, like last week, not so much. The defense needs to be respectable down the stretch for the Packers to have a chance for a deep playoff run.
Harrison is playing? Didn't know he came back, and especially surprised to see him in Pittsburgh. Checked, they signed him for $1M, he playing pretty well tonight.
Why is it whenever I see the Steelers in primetime, they look unbeatable?
I still don't actually believe the Packers beat them in the Super Bowl with me watching.
Not only that, Packers were en-route to completely romping them before the Collins/Shields/Woodson/Driver injuries.
I will say this... Watching the Broncos get spanked by the Patriots makes me feel a little better about the New Orleans loss...
Good teams at home... when they get the bounces, they usually win.
Me too, a little better. I thought the Broncos' D was better than that. I fear we are going to have our hands full with NE, especially Gronk. We better bring the house and get after Brady instead of sitting back in coverage like we did in NO while Brees picked us apart or its gonna be a long afternoon.
NE hasn't lost since they got spanked in Kansas City in week 4. That Hoody Genius sure is a genius: Burned the tape and his team has been dominating since.
Should be a good game VS the Pack. If I don't lose all my money playing poker, I might buy a tix so I could tell my clones someday that I saw Tommy Boy play in person. :)
The marshmallow is the starting right tackle for the Bengals tonight. He looks as bad as ever.
Andy Dalton was 10-33, 86 yards, 0 TD, 3 INT. Passer rating of 1.957.
