One home team will lose today

[Punkabilly56]

Since both #1 seeds won yesterday, there will be at least one upset today. The NFL rarely (ever?) has #1 vs #2 in the Championship games. I like our chances today. #Finishthefight.

Doesn't happen often, that is for sure, last time I remember was in 2004, and 1994 before that. Hmm...2014..not a good omen come to think of it.

EDIT: It also happened in 2002, and 1998, so not that uncommon actually, even in the age of parity. Back in the day, it happened nearly every year.

Well, we're going to win, so that's at least one home team losing.

Would be awfully predictable. Not just the fact that it would be 1's vs 2's, but there wouldn't be a dark horse left in the bunch. Denver, GB, NE, and Seattle were all highly regarded in the pre-season.

And every single one would have lived up to the hype, going 13-4. That's pretty unusual, too. I guess the biggest downside surprise this year was SF. Obviously, our 'Boys are the biggest dark horse.

Agree. I'm tired of the Brady-Manning storyline. A rematch between the Cowboys and Seattle would be must see football.

Odd are, you're right. One home team has a good chance of losing considering 1 home team typically does, 1 didn't yesterday, and in recent years, road teams have had some luck. With that said, I think the Colts and Cowboys have their work cut out for them. Here's to hoping the Cowboys get the job done.

I doubt the Colts are going to go into Denver and win, so it has to be Dallas.
