Either Indy or New England. If the playoffs started today, it'd be New England.

Most likely New England. A great matchup if you ask me.

Indy's at home against Miami, New England is at Tennessee. I believe an Indy win means that they clinch no worse than the #3 seed, which would lock the Pats in at the #4 seed.

They would be the 5th seed and have to play the 4th seed.
NE would be a great matchup. Denver will beat Indi too. Shanny will run M. Bell down their throat all game.
The toughest matchup for Denver is obviously the Chargers. I like them against the Ravens, Colts and Pats.

You gotta love a potential matchup with the Pats. We just have their number, period.

And if we get matched up with Patriots, you are going to hear a big ass groan coming from New England...
SHHIITTT! Not the Broncos! What kind of f'ing luck is that?

I'm really not scared to play anyone. Going to Baltimore could be very tough though. I don't personally think that playing in San Diego is much of a disadvantage to other teams. The weather is always pretty good, the fans will show up but they show up everywhere. It's an advantage to them because they don't have to go to a cold weather stadium or a dome, but other teams coming in probably aren't too intimidated.
I actually think most teams are hoping that San Diego wins next week so that they don't have to go to Baltimore.

People might call me crazy, but IŽd rather play Indy than New England for the same reason most of youŽd prefer New England. Yes, weŽve had New EnglandŽs number recently and Indy has been beating us at will, but streaks are made to be broken. One way or the other ... and the way the Colts are playing right now I guess my mom could pick up 150 rushing against them.

With Jay Cutler at QB I'm not afraid of anyone...what a GREAT feeling and one I haven't had in about 10 years.
Hold on now we are not in the playoffs yet. We got this little matter of beating the SF 49ers to get in.
You all are making some bad ju ju here.

Exactly. I just want to take it one game at a time. Every game is a playoff game right now including yesterday's victory.

I know everyone says we have the Pats number and we'll surely win...but, here's the thing. They have a point to prove with us. They will have fire. They will want revenge. We took them out at our home in the playoffs last year. We go there, don't you think they will want to do the same? It's more than just a playoff game for them....it's a revenge game.
I think we are the better team....but, hey...I just have to play devil's advocate here.

As it stands now the Donks will play either Indy, or the Pats on the road. The Donks clearly match up better with New England whether they have a point to prove or not.
Either way they're going to have to step on necks on the road. It'd be nice to beat the Colts in their dome though.

Your crazy then and not looking at the real reasons we do well vs NE and not Indy. Broncos can't cover Wayne and Harrisson both or get to Mannings quick release. While NE crappy WR can't seem to shake free soon enough from Bailey and Williams to keep Broncos from pounding Brady. Until I see those 2 matchups change I will expect it to stay the same.

I wasnt looking at reasons, I just said what I feel. And we did do well against New England even when Brady had guys like Givens, Brown and Branch, who may not quite be on the Harrison/Wayne level, but still considerably better than the bunch of scrubs Brady is throwing to right now.

The thing is, Indy's defense is beat up. Somebody will need to put them out of their misery and it might as well be us. If Dayne can rush for 150, what do you think the Bells could do?
The Pats are playing well down the stretch. I'd rather not have to see them in icy, slippery, foggy Foxboro in January. September or October is one thing. Mid-winter with a rookie QB would be different.
