This game has me torn. I'm a lifelong Packers fan but also a huge Dak Prescott fan because I'm a Mississippi state fan.Would love to see Dak win a super bowl, but also Aaron Rodgers and the Pack win a couple more. My heart is rooting for Dak today.

Green Bay wins, but all the credit in the world has to go to Dallas, who played a whale of a game. That was one of the best football games I'ver ever seen.

All I can say is WOW. I liked 21 to 3 better though.

Dak and the boys gave us a heck of a game. Onward to Atlanta.

Steelers get in to Foxboro off 6 FGs, a 2pt conversion called back on a penalty and 32 yd pass to Antonio Brown that allowed them to take 3 knees to kill the clock. It was certainly not a dramatic ending as was Dallas/Green Bay despite the fact that Le'Veon Bell had 175 yards and Brown had over 100 yards but it was "good enough."

That's what I was thinking.

I'm still leery about what a great QB will do to the Pats defense. And that's all that's left now. The good thing about playing Pittsburgh is that their defense isn't very impressive. Neither is the Whiner, Mike Tomlin. Instead of AFC championship hats, the travelling secretary should load up on extra boxes of tissues for Mikey.

I was just watching the highlights from Saturday. I am surprised they didn't call holding on Slater on that Lewis run back for a TD. He had a grip on the opponent jersey nearly the entire length of the field.

What a great ending to the Green Bay / Cowboys game. Crosby nailing two 50 yarders in the final 90 seconds ... I wonder if that's ever been done before in a playoff game?

Actually, given that one was a do-over, he nailed three!

You're right, Crosby kicked one just after Dallas called a timeout.

Coach Tomlin discussing about staying off social media while his speech is getting streamed in the locker room ... too funny.

More like embarrassing. Sunday will be here soon enough. They don't need the distraction.

I know there's not much love for the Steelers here but I've been enjoying the wrap ups on the Youtubes from local comic Pittsburgh Dad.

...and yes, people from Pittsburgh do talk like that. Lot o' yinz might not get the humor though.

I always like the Steelers. I remember them before the Steel Curtain. They were horrible. I think they went something like 40 years without a championship or something like that ( I had to wait about 30 years between Packer Super Bowls though, lol).
