It seems like it's been a fairly common occurance for a #1 seed to lose in the divisional round of the playoffs.

We did it in 2007. Giants did it in 2008. Broncos this year. And I know I'm forgetting some....

I'm not enthused either. Denver/Baltimore was the first football game I've watched since I turned ours off in the 4th quarter. I've watched about 5 minutes of this game.

It really sucks that Dallas isn't playing, but we haven't fielded a team that we thought could get to the Super Bowl since 2007 and even then the team screwed it up. This team is a clusterfuck. I forget who said it, but Jerry is holding it hostage.

And the 2007 team was the first one that resembled a contender since 1995. The 1996 team certainly didn't.

How dejected are you if you're a Broncos fan today? You go all season.... just on a roll. Win 11 straight. Get #1 seed. Have a 7 point lead with less than two minutes left. Stadium rocking.

Then arguably the worst play by a safety in the history of the world... and a journeyman goes 70 yards on you. Takes the game to overtime. A HOF generational QB throws a moronic interception.... season over.

Football is cruel

I felt better about that 2009 team than I did the 2007 team. I really felt like we were on a roll and getting hot at the perfect time.

I need to get gambling out of my blood. College is relatively easy, but the NFL is tooooooo unpredictable.

There are too many factors that come into play. The refs obviously helped Baltimore win.

The NFL is like a big wrestling show now.

Any chance a 8.3 earthquake can strike candelstick park and take both these teams out.
