Can the Texans Warriors defeat the Ravens Pistons to play in their first championship game fourth win of the season? Will the Giants Pistons send the Packers packing score 80 points? Will anything beat the Saints/49ers game Ben Wallace's silky-smooth jump shot? It's the NFL Divisionals Day 2 Warriors-Pistons game thread, games at 1 PM on CBS, 4:30 PM on Fox game at 6:00 PM EST.

Fixed.

I really don't care to see the Saints or Greenbay in the Superbowl again. Thanks 49ers. Now, lets see what Eli can do.

What time is Tebow playing?

BillCo: What time is Tebow playing?

Either 1 or 4 pm EDT, September 9, 2012. Possibly 8:30, possibly 8:30 September 10th. I'm actually leaning towards the last choice, but not sure who with. Pittsburgh maybe?

Well, sure, if you want these 6 posts to be the only posts the thread will get...

\Beat the Ravens! Be the Pats' next sacrifi-I mean, wouldn't it be cool to play in the AFC Championship?

Come on Texans!

No more Arena style football please.

Congratulations to all Houston Texans fans on your stellar season filled with franchise firsts! The fact that your team has come this far despite all the injuries is nothing short of inspirational to everyone, except maybe fans in Indy, Jacksonville, and Tennessee--you have all the makings of a perennial contender in place. I just hope for a good, clean game today, without any injuries to either team.

Harv72b: I hope this pic pisses you off

Nah. Tom Brady has three of 'em.

2wolves: No more Arena style football please.

Tebow wouldn't know how to play Arena football if his playoff hopes depended on it--oh wait, THEY DID.

FriarReb98: Nah. Tom Brady has three of 'em.

Why would Brady want three Ravens Super Bowl rings? :p

/No matter who wins today, he'll have to face a real defense and a team with a winning record next weekend.
//And just like to point out that he's never beaten Baltimore in the postseason.

....in one attempt. In a comeback year. And that he's never lost to them otherwise. ;)

Let's just say that I know you're going to be pulling for Houston today. ;)

When Baltimore's team was stolen, did they whine and sniffle to the NFL for an expansion team? No. They manned up and stole Cleveland's team. That's how you do things in America. That's the American way, and that's what this game is about. America. It will be a tragedy if the Ravens lose.

We actually manned up & tried to steal St. Louis' team first. Luckily, that didn't work.

I just want to point out that the last time the Giants and Packers played, the Giants were coming off short rest after playing the Saints on Monday night and the Packers were coming off a bye week.

Because beating you on the field isn't enough for him. He must also take that which you hold dearest.

Little known fact: Gisele Bundchen was engaged to Jon Gruden in late-2001.

Mike_LowELL: Bravo. Made me laugh.

Bunny Deville: Well, good on 'em. I still can't root for a team that has a special battle uniform just for my team. But I don't like the Ravens, either.

If I were a Jags fan I'd be a little excited about the near future--you have most of the pieces in place, just need a couple more to get over the top. Mark my words, in 2-3 more seasons the AFC South is going to be Jacksonville and Houston duking it out every year for the division title*.

/*Unless Indy can miracle up another set of triplets.

At work until 2-ish, and then heading over to my brother, who doesn't have wifi, for the Giants game. Let's go G-Men!

Yep. Been a great year for us. Turned a lot of corners. Now I'm just really hoping Wade's ego doesn't send him off looking for another head coaching job. I know he withdrew his application for the Tampa job, but he might just be waiting for the end of our season.

I'm at work on my mobile, so no pics of players and cheerleaders today. I bought a little portable T.V. though, so I can watch us probably lose today. Just glad it's a good team sending us home though.

If we win though, look for news reports of a human shaped comet launching from the San Francisco area shouting "WWWOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"

Ravens/Texans weird facts:

-The Ravens are 5-0 against Houston all time.
-So far this postseason, the home team has won all 6 games. Not only does that bode well for the Ravens today (as the home team), but the last time that happened in the NFL the Ravens won the Super Bowl.
-Baltimore has won at least one playoff game in each of the last 3 seasons. Joe Flacco has never played a year in the NFL without winning a playoff game.
-The Ravens won their 3rd AFC North division title this season. In both of their prior division-winning years, they lost in their first playoff game.
-Since re-joining the NFL in 1996, Baltimore has fielded the league's only co-ed cheerleading squad.
-The Ravens are undefeated this season against playoff teams, at 6-0.
-Baltimore is 8-4 all-time on the road in the postseason, including their Super Bowl win. They are 1-2 all-time at home.
-The Ravens outscored opponents 219-119 at home this season.
-Flacco has a 27-5 career record in Baltimore, with a QB rating of 90.0 and a 61.2 completion percentage. He's 44-20, 86.0, 60.8% overall.

Go Ravens!

degenerate-afro: I drove by the stadium earlier today (around 10am) and the place was jumping. It hasn't been this hyper downtown since the Orioles were good.

The early 80s?
