It was a great Sunday of football games!

It is no surprise that the conference championship games got such large audiences:  AFC Title Game Highest Rated In 18 Years, NFC Game Top Rated In 17 Years

The Baltimore-New England game was intense.  The Ravens had a wonderful drive and put themselves in a position to tie the game with a field-goal.  Unfortunately, the kicker did not make it.

The New York-San Francisco game was impacted by the rain.  I think that they would have scored a lot more points without the steady  rain.  Nevertheless, they went into overtime and NY won with a FG.

I did not have a favorite in these games.  However, we got two great games to watch.

NY and NE will now play in the Super Bowl.  Everybody expected NE to be there but NY is still a surprise for many of us.  I can still remember when they wanted to fire the coach in NY just a few weeks before they beat Dallas to clinch the NFC East and a ticket to the post season.

My guess is that all of the experts will pick NE but don't underestimate NY.  Speaking of the NY-SF game, Bill Katz and I had fun talking politics and watching the game on Sunday night:
