Re: NBC: Patriots to Play on Saturday Jan 11 at 8:15

The only thing that would be better if it started at 4:00 PM... less wait time.

It would be an excellent birthday present, not that they should feel that they need to win one for me personally but I'm just saying.........

And Manning will make sure everybody knows it.

This is good news. I don't think its a coincidence that the Pats are 4-0 in AFCCG following Saturday games, an extra night of rest and a day of preparation is very important.

That's not to say I consider them a shoe-in to get out of the divisional round, as banged up as they are, any one of the three games they can draw will be a grind.

This definitely works out very nice for my personal schedule :-D

Because peyton manning rested the second half of the raider game, playing on sunday may cause that team to be out of sync when they play.

Nice. Now I know I can drink heavily for the game.

+1

Of course I was going to get drunk anyways...at least this allows more recovery time before work...

We will most likely be playing Cincinnati in that time slot. I think they take care of SD at home.

Amazing what a year will do, nearly 36 hours into playoff week and no Broncos fans storming the board telling us they are going to kick our ass in the AFCCG.

Quite surprised the lack of buzz patriots have right now in the national media and them landing a 8:15 game. Of the 12 playoff teams in the last 2 days,I have seen the patriots being talked about the least.

If so, a short week for Cincinnati.

Get to see if the Boltz are for real in that game.

BB and Pats have a grudge match with Bungles if they win.

Get rested, prepared and hope all the guys that were held out of the Bills game are healthy and ready to go.

No time to have a clunker game. Rookies must be JACKED !!
