It depends on the time and were they are playing. Dome teams don't do that well outside, southern teams have trouble in the cold, and traveling across country for a game can also be a factor.

Home field is an advantage, how much depends on the team and city.

The real advantage in the NFl playoffs is the bye the top two teams get.

Excellent point. I like the new system where only the top two division winners get the bye.

So far right now, projecting ahead:

Philadelphia and St. Louis

and

New England and Indy

are who I think will get this bye. I just have a feeling the Chiefs will end up having to play in the first round.

It's a beautiful thing, this new and improved Philadelphia team . . . What did they do with the real Eagles, and who are these imposters? Oh geez, who cares, if they're winning all their games, I don't mind if the real Eagles are missing!

Uh huh, all's good until they botch up just one half, not one game, just one half and then look out Eagles.

What was the line I heard today as I worked out?

Philadelphia fans would boo the second coming of the Messiah.

If it's true, I won't refute it.

Moreover, can you imagine some Philly fans observing a D&D game.

Philly Fan: "You suck Mr. Wizard. You call that a spell? Your mother must have hit you in the face with your spellbook growing up."

And of course that's a PG one that I can post...imagine the R rated ones.

Philadelphia fans can't get no love! :: pout :: But we'll show you all when we win the Super Bowl this year!

LOL! No, I think to refute my point, you have to not win the Super Bowl and still come out with:

"Andy, Donovan....you still gave us a heck of a season in the face of tremendous adversity and a first place schedule. Thank you and we'll get them next year."

You know....a Dr. Phil moment....everyone comes out and one big group hug around the Liberty Bell.

Yeah, I can see that . . . Not.
