Are you going to cry foul that they have a bye and homefield advantage?

If you were a Dallas fan, wouldn't you want to see the Pats get eliminated in the AFC playoffs? I know that I would like to see Dallas eliminated in the NFC playoffs, but I would also love to watch a Pats/Cowboys superbowl, for the entertainment value. Ultimately, I just want another Lombardi trophy.

+1

Although you have to expect the hate when you go 14-2 despite a four game TB suspension. I don't see us having much trouble in the playoffs, but there's some very hot teams right now. I'm prepared with memes for a win or loss, it's all in fun at the end of the day

Side note: I almost felt bad for Cook in that Oakland game. Those players admitted they've never even heard him call a play before. Tough position coming into a playoff game like that

Side note 2: GO PATS

wtf is going on with the refs? You would thing the Hawks were the Packers right now with the calls they're getting. NFL is shot.

Detroit is beating themselves up with these stupid personal fouls in the 2nd half.

These refs are amazing. Check out week 2 against Tennessee when they faced Detroit. They love throwing flags left and right.

Detroit is getting a ton of penalty calls. I don't agree with some of them but I suppose sometimes it's betters to be lucky.

[thebmwjunkiee]

Some questionable calls, but overall both of these games have been more boring than I expected (I didn't have high hopes). Hopefully next week will be a bit more exciting

[M_Six]

Pretty play for the highlight reels, but Baldwin's lucky he didn't blow that play. Not that it would have affected the end result of the game, I think.

[Mr.SugarSkulls]

Ok- will comment now.

First TD- controversial. Should have been replayed the down because both were committing penalties. Likely resulting in a FG

Detroit had a ton of bonehead plays.

GREAT to see the running game come back to full force. CJ Prosise is coming back next week which we need all the offense we can get against the falcons.

Overall- no denying it, the better team won. End of story.

Go Hawks!

The reason Detroit lost has nothing to do with bad calls, though they have had a rough going. I do like that butt catch, however.

Agreed. Some of the calls were a bit strange but overall their offense couldn't get going and they weren't not able to stop Rawls. Going in I didn't think Detroit had that much of a chance either way.

Falcons stink.

I'm sure the Cowboys hope that the Packers beat the Giants!! Cowboys lost both games to the Giants, but trounced the Packers.

In the NFC it usually goes: Giants beat Cowboys who beat Eagles who beat Giants.

But only Cowboys and Giants are in the playoffs ....

[Mr.SugarSkulls]

Wooo!

I'm just relieved I can stay happy for another week!

Have that gut feeling...Put ATL on upset alert!!!!

If they can take care of the red zone scoring on offense they will beat Atlanta. They're awful on defense in the red zone(last in the NFL).

You read my mind as far as reasoning for the upset.

Defense needs to step up, and keep ATLs offense under 24, and Seattle has a decent shot at pulling off the upset

Well Eagles needed to beat other teams too (not just Dallas) and they fell short. Again, what I said is usually the case, but not always.

[Germanauto]

Well that's the last time I waste money on the f*cking Lions.

Spent more than half my day on those losers and got trolled all day in and around the CLink.

A lot of Hawks fans I talked to are originally from other cities and have the mentality that "you should support the team where you live." Talk about warped thinking. Basically reaffirmed already documented evidence that its a majority bandwagon fanbase.
