If they play like that again vs Seahawks or Green Bay, it'll be a much different story.
I still have to pull for the home team while they're in it. I'm hoping Detroit beats Dallas so they play the Packers instead of Seattle, IN Seattle.
I think Dallas will beat the Lions though, and we'll be forced to endure an ass kicking in Seattle. I'd much rather take our chances at Lambeau.
I think you got a bit confused there Brujah and contradicted yourself.
Detroit is 6th seed so they WILL play Seattle ( No 1 ) if they beat Dallas ! They cannot meet Packers ... Seattle plays lowest seeded team left.
Dallas wins and they travel to Lambeau for what should be a cracker !
Looks like we were both right. All you did was repeat what I said. I said I hope lions beat Dallas so the lions would be forced to play Seattle instead of us having to play Seattle. Said I'd rather take our chances against Green Bay. I added that, however, I felt like Dallas will beat the lions and thus send us to Seattle.
Although I do see where you might have misunderstood my use of the word 'they' bolded above. I started off talking about how I had to pull for the Panthers as long as they were still alive, being the home team and all, and the 'they' in the next sentence was still referring to the Panthers. I see how it can be read as the 'they' standing for Detroit, as it was the proper noun in the beginning of the sentence.
It took me a bit to puzzle out how you weren't saying the exact same thing I did, yet saying I had confused something.
