The wildcard round is over. Dallas and Carolina pulled out wins in the NFC. That leaves the Packers and Seahawks to battle it out for the NFC Championship against those two. And the Colts and Ravens won, leaving match-ups with the Patriots and Broncos for AFC supremacy. That's the Elite 8.
Dallas @ Green Bay
Carolina @ Seattle
Winner of those two matches play each other for a super bowl spot.
Indy @ Denver
Baltimore @ New England
Same thing, winner plays other winner for super bowl spot.
So, who' it gonna be? Lots of good potential story lines, almost no matter what happens. We could see Peyton Manning battling it out against Seattle in an ultimate Super Bowl rematch. Or Aaron Rodgers go for a second ring against fellow elite QB Tom Brady, going for, what his fourth ring?
Or.. my favorite: Tony Romo and company swinging into Arizona Stadium against (my guess) Denver in a rematch, where the last time Romo through for over 500 yards, and the two teams collectively put up almost 100 points on the board. That to me would be a great super bowl matchup: Cowboys v Broncos.
So, who is your pick? What story line are you looking forward to the most? Or which one do you think is most likely to play out?
*** keep this thread going on through the playoffs and into the Super Bowl, so we can discuss all the match-ups leading up to and right after the big game ****
