NFL Playoffs!

<p>Well my Eagles will be playing the Vikings next week! I'm DEFINITELY looking forward to seeing that game! We can beat them even without T.O.! I'd personally like to see the Eagles and Steelers in the Super Bowl.</p>

<p>yes! eagles v steelers! (but steelers win!) My team faces the Jets next week!</p>

<p>Vikings will waste your team. As Moss says, aside from his acts, "Look at the Scoreboard buddy." I hope Terrell Owens and Donavan Mcnabb both get their ACL torn on the first play of the game, as well as their coach.</p>

<p>T.O. isn't playing. Randy "Flosssssssssssssssssss" Moss will dominate, and by the way it wasn't "look at the scoreboard buddy," it was "look at the scoreboard Mf'ers</p>

<p>lol you read his lips better than I did.</p>

<p>haha...I loved the Vikings beating the Packers in Wisconsin...since I'm from MN, I'm all for the rivalry! It felt like we won the superbowl, well almost like it for hardcore Vikings fans. I can't wait till next weekend, the games should be so good. I'm having a football party...first we're going to watch the Vikings game, and then the colts game!</p>

<p>I can't wait for the Colts to put the Patriots in their place next Sunday...</p>

<p><3 Peyton Manning <3</p>

<p>The COLTS will dominate. Peyton is on a level where no QB before him has been. We have the best offense in NFL history.</p>

<p>PITTSBURGH - Ben Roethlisberger has surprised his Pittsburgh Steelers (news)' teammates many times during his unbeaten rookie season. He did so again Tuesday, announcing he'll donate his first NFL playoff paycheck to the tsunami victims relief effort.</p>

<p>Even on a team that openly encourages its players to participate in charity activities and community events, Roethlisberger's $18,000 gesture before Saturday's Jets-Steelers game created a positive stir.</p>

<p>"Wow, I didn't even know that," wide receiver Hines Ward said. "Guys do a lot of different things in different ways that people don't always hear about, but that's great — that's for a great cause, definitely. That's a big tragedy, and I hope everyone will at least donate (something)."</p>

<p>Unlike the regular season, when each player earns a weekly share of his base salary, playoff salaries are determined by the league's collective bargaining agreement and each player is paid the same.</p>

<p>Roethlisberger, who is 13-0 as a rookie quarterback, hopes other NFL players will follow his lead.</p>

<p>"I'm going to donate my game check this week to the tsunami relief — and hopefully maybe (it will be) a challenge for other people to do that, too," Roethlisberger said.</p>

<p>Roethlisberger became motivated to act after numerous NBA players — including Kobe Bryant, Jermaine O'Neal and Bob Sura — donated $1,000 per point scored last weekend to the relief effort. The NBA players' union also donated $500,000, and the NBA will match the gift.</p>

<p>In the NFL, the Patriots made playoff tickets available to fans who donated at least $1,000 to efforts to aid the estimated 5 million tsunami victims.</p>

<p>"A game check isn't anything like some of the Yankees and some of those people who've donated a million dollars, but every little thing they can get can help," Roethlisberger said. "Hopefully, it's a challenge to other NFL players. We've seen the NBA players do it."</p>

<p>Roethlisberger, the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, has a base salary of $230,000, but also will collect $9 million in signing and roster bonuses by early next year and as much as $2.6 million in first-season performance bonuses.</p>

<p>Roethlisberger's gesture impressed Steelers coach Bill Cowher, who has talked all season about the rookie's maturity.</p>

<p>"That's a heck of a gesture on his part. That says a lot about the kid for him to do something like that," Cowher said. "I've said all along the kid's got a great perspective on things and that's another example of it."</p>

<p>No other Steelers players have said if they will match Roethlisberger's gesture, which was announced just before practice and may not yet be known to them.</p>

<p>i know that has nothing to do with playoffs in terms of games and whatnot---but i still find it very noteworthy.</p>

<p>Go Colts! My dad thinks the whole thing is rigged (I'm not sure I agree with that). But, if it is, my dad says that Colts will when the Superbowl because Manning's had so much publicity this year. Either way, Colts are going to win!!!</p>

<p>J-e-t-s Jets Jets Jets</p>

<p>S---------t----------e---------e-----------l------------e--------r------------s</p>

<p>I like the Steelers, well, I used to like them more and I used to like Rothelisberger more...but does anyone else think he is kind of getting arrogant, when he is like I knew I could do it all along, but a main reason they win is because they have a solid defense.</p>

<p>packers suck. time for favre to throw in the towel</p>

<p>Go Steelers. Luckily classes don't start until this Monday for me. So going to the game on Saturday before heading back up to school on Sunday.</p>

<p>Ur going to the game? Lucky as hell, man. I'm a Jets fan but its all good. I hope its a good game. Have a great time.</p>

<p>Considering my Titans have the 6th pick in the upcoming draft... and my 2nd fav team packers choked bigtime against the Vikes.... I seriously have no interest in football now - and I'm from NJ so you'd think I would root for my hometown Jets. None of the teams really excite me cept Vick in Atlanta, but still nothing like rooting for my Titans. Oh well - go Sacramento Kings - lol.</p>

<p>I'm really, really excited about Sunday's Colts game!!!</p>
