Shaking in Your Boots

I'm sure you guys are really sweating it watching AZ and Carolina play......

Neither team looks very good to be sure, but it's a week to week league. Whoever emerges will have pep in their step and enjoy the feeling of playing with house money from that point on.

I'm worried that bksballer is going to give the Seahawks the kiss of death, by picking them to win.

Looks like Az D has waken up. And Newton is struggling to get the throws to the open men. It looked like the panthers where going to walk away with this game until that touch by the punt returner.

Shut your dirty mouth! What are you trying to do, jinx us?

Oh yeah, please don't ban me........

We might be playing Detroit next week... Everyone seems to be punching Dallas's ticket to Green Bay already....

Your spot on. Won't surprise me a bit to see the Lions win.

I'm sick of playing Carolina. 4th time in 3 years. First one at the Clink in that time frame though.

He already said "wouldn't be surprised to see Carolina win a few games". In his "Watch out for Carolina" thread, So we are safe.

Not worried, but I wouldn't be even if Carolina looked good in their win today. Obviously anything can happen in a playoff game, but I expect the Seahawks to handle the Panthers fairly easily. The Seahawks just have to focus on playing their game and everything will take care of itself.

I kind of feel bad for Arizona to be honest. Worked out well for the Seahawks, but I wonder what they might have accomplished if Palmer hadn't gone down.

Yeah i was thinking the same thing right after the game. If Palmer doesn't go down i think they finish 13-3 at best 12-4 at worst. So they would have either been the #1 seed or the #5 but would have had a much better shot to win today. Their special teams ( punter ) killed any chance for them really though.

Watching Baltimore and Pittsburgh I realize how neither of these teams have a chance

The AZ/CAR game was a comedy of errors by both teams and kinda hard to watch. With Newton even more beat up than he was before, I honestly can't see the Panthers going into Lambeau or The CLink and getting out of either matchup with a win. Anything's possible, of course, but it's hard to imagine the Packers or Seahawks losing that game. The only real "edge of my seat" moment from this game came towards the end when Arizona had a chance to break the all-time playoff record for offensive futility. Maybe things would have been different for Arizona (and the Seahawks) if Palmer doesn't get hurt or, at the very least, if Stanton doesn't get hurt, but we'll never know now.
