Fans just fan!

No, FANS hate Brady because he's supposedly a cheater. The league protects franchise QBs in general because there's not enough of them go to around. Most teams don't even have one, somehow my team seems to have two.

Then it'll be Giants or Packers at Cowboys and Seahawks at Falcons.

Packers will beat the Giants. Seahawks will beat the Lions. Falcons and Seahawks and Cowboys and Packers I call toss-ups.

Dude...you are playing in a very stacked NFC with a flawed team and you got in as a wild card. Take that as a win, be glad you're not the 20 teams that will be wishing they made the play-offs.

so someone says something once, they are automatically guilty?? never mind w/an investigation, the guy is guilty and considered the "goldenboy of the league." what a joke.

Brady and the Patriots were investigated, Brady was suspended, the team fined and lost draft picks.......therefore, they are guilty.

btw.......didn't see a whole lot of tears on the field.....well, not on the GB side anyway.

When the Pack come to Arlington for another play-off showdown, I expect another play-off game to remember. Just hope we're on the winning side this time!

personally i'm hoping for experience to trump an incredible regular season run and have it bend in our favor if it comes to that.

I'm sorry I'm a life long lions fan. They have won 1 playoff game in the superbowl Era.... 1!!!! Haven't won a division title since 93. Wasted away 2 all time greats in barry sanders and calvin johnson. And blew a 2 game lead with 3 to play. And are making the playoffs in sickening fashion losing 3 in a row, and only getting in because redskins choked just a little bit more.

Redskins were playing above their heads, Cousins is a mediocre QB with a big arm. Your team just needs a few more pieces, they're right there in the best conference in the NFL. Dallas, New York, Green Bay, Seattle, Atlanta and usually teams like Arizona and Carolina. People can say what they want but the NFC IS the best conference, still surprised they didn't win the Super Bowl last year but I blame maybe the worst league MVP ever.

Seattle is flawed this year. But there is no way I see this lions team going into Seattle and beating them. I'm thinking green bay vs new England superbowl. Which would be an amazing game. And tom brady would kick that punk aaron Rodgers ass.

We already stomped the Pack at Lambeau and that game wasn't as close as the score. Assuming we come out of the bye ready to play, I like our chances against the banged up Pack, especially since their secondary is paper thin. Just have to keep winning the turnover battle like we have been, except this week with Sanchize at QB for most of the game.

Because he actually said it.

Tom ALLEGEDLY was involved, but was never proven. Can't help that NFL plays favoritism and it definitely does not favor TB.

Really isn't that hard.

I disagree with your cousins assessment. I think he's a great qb. Had a bad game today I'll give you that, but he was the only reason that team was in contention. And the nfc east was amazing this year. Redskins defense was awful.

No fans just have kneejerk reactions, and don't look at the bigger picture.
So when if New England wins it all this year, what is the cheating scandal then? Lol!
It's already been proven that New England has a near identical win percentage, during the B&B era, before/after 2007(spygate).

that game would come down to Green Bays defense, Rodgers and the Green Bay offense could hang w/Brady and the Patriots.

Innocent people don't smash their cellphones. Or tape other teams practices. Or somehow teach their MIKE all of the other team's offense's plays.

Green Bay is a different team right now though man. hAaron Rodgers is playing at an elite level again.

I know, that's why I expect it to be a very close game. Bailey or Crosby could well end up being the difference, hope Bailey's ready to be Mr. Automatic again in the play-offs, he's been a bit shaky this year.

Innocent people shouldn't have to turn their private property over to their employers, over alleged company misconduct! Would you?

Let's be honest, I don't do anything on my cellphone I wouldn't mind my employer seeing. That said, I would never give my boss my cellphone for that kind of investigation, it's my personal property. However, I'm not subject to the CBA like Tom Brady is.
