Then the Chargers had to travel to sub arctic Cincy the following week. That game was over before it started.

1990-91 NFC: New York Giants 15, San Francisco 49ers 13

Long awaited rematch after SF (10-1) went against the NYG (10-1) in week 13 of the season. SF won in that one 7-3.

They did make it a low risk contract.....

$1.3 mill if he makes the opening day roster. If Carl hits all incentives the total payout could reach 6.5 mill and a second year.

Great game but that was for the NFC title rather than a divisional game. One of the most one sided divisional round games I ever saw was the Giants 49-3 thrashing of the Niners back in January of ‘87.

Who the heck am I going to root for in game one......the Tit-hens were stolen from Allegra's Houston Oilers and the Poe-pounders were stolen from cleveland gop's Clowns...

I guess I hate the Poe-pounders worse...

...but then again, the way my pickem's have been going lately......maybe I should root for the Poe-pounders...they'd be guaranteed to lose then.

You also remember the 1981 Raiders/Browns divisional game played in wind chills of -40 to -45. Raiders win 14-12 when Brian Sipe throws an ill-advised pass inthe endzone that was intercepted. The team had driven the ball right down the field to the Oakland 12 when the play, known as Red Right 88 was called.

Then coach Sam Rutigliano chose not to go for a field goal, as kicker Don Cockroft missed one of similar distance on the same side of the fieldearlier in the game.

I am not a huge NFL fan but hands down the 74 Oakland Miami playoff game was the best I ever saw. Stabler vs Griese with the lead changing hands a number of times. Stabler throwing the winning touchdown while he was being taken down almost on his knees when he released the ball is also probably the greatest play I have ever seen as well.

Maybe it’s the Ron Jeremy look that Jeff Fisher has displayed that has me taking the 3 points. We shall see

You're right....and the divisional and conference games are much, much better games than the Super Bowl (although there have been some exceptions).

I missed the Janet Jackson Exposé since the SB halftime show just ain't football and I was in the kitchen for the 2nd half lineup and replacements......

Ok....game time. I pick the Titans but with reservations. Collins is a hot/cold QB.
