Next week? Assuming the Niners beat Chicago. You would think it would be SEA/SF, but the league just loves them that BAL/PIT rivalry.

I think Ravens/Steelers win or go home is more compelling than number 1 seed, which only matters to Seattle and San Francisco fans. Also potentially Rodgers' last game. On the other hand, Seahawks and 49ers are better teams than Baltimore and Pittsburgh.

Unfortunately, you're probably right. Hopefully Chicago wins and the league has an easier decision. I don't think Tampa Bay versus Carolina is bumping anything.

You have to admit, the NFL made the right decision on the Sunday night game, if you wanted tension and drama. That Steelers/Ravens game had everything, including four lead changes in the fourth quarter. A missed extra point gives the Ravens a chance to win, but they miss a field goal on the last play of the game.

Yep, I'm plenty happy how it all laid out. That game was a blast last night.

The last 5 minutes of the Steelers game was pretty damn fun. Glad I could watch it knowing we had clinched already. The morning slate of games were awful though.

Yeah, in hindsight, it was a better choice for the casual fan looking for an entertaining football game. But most thought our game would go down to the wire too. SEA/SF were better teams all year and more deserving of the Sunday Night slot.
