Is it bad to root for LAR and KC to lose to see who our HC is faster? Do you want them to lose to see an announcement sooner than later?

I am rooting for BOTH LAR and KC to reach the Super Bowl but I am leaning for LAR to win it all because I think Zac Taylor will be the next head coach for the Bengals!

Not that I want to be kept in suspense, but I am rooting for both of them to win.  I don't think it matters, though.  Nobody's taking down the Saints.

If anyone can take down the Saints, it is the Rams.

I respect that, however I'm being very impatient in hopes to see both teams lose tomorrow lol.

With that being said, what a game that was between KC v LAR.... That would be an amazing SB match up. But I have NO vs LAC as my two to go to the SB right now. Rivers vs Brees.. Both drafted by SD (Kinda.. Lol). It would be interesting.

IF Taylor is going to be the new Bengals head coach, the ring will give him gravitas among players.  He may need it because, hell, he is only 35!

They wouldn’t be runaway favorites in the Super Bowl over any AFC team in my opinion. At home in the NFC they will be a tough out.

I’m really excited about the prospects of the super bowl this year. I’ve actually started to pull for Rivers who I thought was a DB earlier in his career. The guy has moxy and loves the game of football.

True. He'll walk in with players showing immediate respect. I know its best for them to win it all, I'm just so anxious lol.

Saints are hot. And S.P. is going to do whatever it takes to win them a SB.

What's not to like about Phillip Rivers? He's a good ol boy, he's fun to watch, been around forever, has a big mouth, refused to move his wife and 28 kids to LA with the team, and makes the SD to LA commute every day.

Personally I'm glad I've got to see him play in person. Too bad it was while they laid the only home loss of the year on the Bengals in 2013... In the playoffs if course.

I want them both to lose, not that it has anything to do with the coaches. I want Indy to beat KC, and I think they will, and I want LA to lose because... well.... California. And I don't think it matters, because NO is going to win the SB....

I don’t think you aRe giving the field enough credit this year. All the AFC teams are really really good.

Nah. Unless the Bengals completely blindside everybody at this point, it seems it's either Bieniemy or Taylor. I can wait a couple more weeks to find out which one it is.

No doubt, but I think Brees will get his last one this year. It kind of goes with the NFL script...

While its a longshot, I want them to lose because I'd rather the teams they're playing, win lol (**** KC and my dad's a Cowboys fan, sooo...)

I want our young HC to get all the playoff/Superbowl experience they can get. I'm willing to wait.

Whoever loses first gets the job?

I'm with you McC.  I'm just glad the Stoolers had to sit at home, and we have an opportunity to potentially see some fresh blood in the SB this season.

Yep.  The playoffs are always much better if the Steelers ain't in them.
