Not many more opportunities left to talk football this season.

Do the home teams all hold court this weekend, or will there be an upset (or two or three)?

If you're ATL, NE, KC, or Dallas . . . who do you want to face next week?

    I'm a Packer fan so I'm hoping the Pack takes out Eli and his Giants.

    I want ANY team besides the Cowboys and Patriots in the SB. I would like to see Packers vs Steelers.

    NY Giants fan here and I like their chances tomorrow! Predict Seattle, Steelers and Raiders in the other 3!

    The home teams went 4-0 in week one. Wildcard week participation trophies go to the Giants, Lions, Dolphins, and Raiders, and the others move on to the division playoffs.

    Sat: Seahawks at Falcons
    Texans at Patriots

    Sun: Steelers at Chiefs
    Packers at Cowboys

    Who makes it through to the conference championships?

    Patriots, Seahawks, Steelers and Packers all based on experience and quality of their QBs!

    BUT Matty Ice is hot, Cowboys have two hot Rookies and are playing at home.

    I would like to see ANYONE, except Pats and Cowboys, in the Super Bowl.

    If forced to make a choice today, I agree with @Jimb376's picks (although with hesitation because it's hard to believe the visiting team will win 3 of 4 games).

    Personal preference: "Anyone but Pittsburgh" is my second favorite team.

    Go Seahawks! This should be a tough game, as the Falcons are playing great. Injuries have plagued both teams, yet they both keep fighting.

    Al_Howard I though we were friends? LoL It would be my dream to seePackers knock both Cowboys and Pats out of playoffs and SB!

    @Calvin2008Brian Oh I didn't really think about home team advantage but as they say "On any given Sunday..."

    Jim, congratulations to the Packers. In the end there was no D for Big D. We gave you a run for your money there at the end, huh?

    This may be of interest to those who watched the GB/Cowboys game. Despite the loss, it's one of the best playoff games in recent memory.

    DW is from Wisconsin. Amazing game that GB won. I will say that the Cowboys were a bit rusty starting the game.
