Denver Broncos (4:30PM/CBS): Can Peyton Manning complete his career comeback while wearing orange and blue?

How will Peyton Manning react to the cold weather today?

Via The Scores Report  |  January 12, 2013
This is one of the more interesting questions as the NFL kicks off its divisional playoffs later today. Peyton Manning’s record in cold weather games hasn’t been great, and now we hear he’ll be wearing gloves for this playoff game.

Round Table: Saturday Rooting

Via Foxboro Blog  |  January 11, 2013
Who will you be rooting for on Saturday?  Baltimore or Denver? Raj:  I got a lot of criticism for fellow Patriots fans on twitter for my decision to root for the Ravens last Sunday and that isn't changing. One reason is because Ray Rice carried Rutgers to glory and I am a Jersey guy. Pride apart, I also rooted for the Ravens because let's be honest, who is a much tougher...

Packers Will Need Herculean Performance From Aaron Rodgers to Have any Chance Against 49ers

Via NESN.com  |  January 10, 2013
Aaron Rodgers has never played a meaningful NFL game in front of his hometown crowd in San Francisco, Calif. — he did make an appearance in a 2008 preseason game. So, Saturday night will mark a first for Rodgers inside Candlestick Park, but as for the 49ers he already has some history. Earlier this season, way back in Week 1 actually, Rodgers watched as the Niners rolled into Green...

This time, Packers plan to be ready for 49ers

Via Fox Sports Wisconsin  |  January 11, 2013
GREEN BAY, Wis. -- There was a feeling within the Packers locker room that they'd see the San Francisco 49ers again. Perhaps it was just hopefulness, looking for a way to get another shot at the team that came into Lambeau Field in Week 1 of the regular season and thoroughly outplayed Green Bay on both sides of the ball. But that was four months ago. Now, the Packers are getting...

Wisconsin Born Kaepernick Beats Cali Born Rodgers

Via 49ersNews  |  January 12, 2013
Sorry about your homecoming Aaron Rodgers. I’m sure one of these days you’ll be able to win in San Francisco. All the talk heading into this game was about Aaron Rodgers homecoming, how the 49ers were going to be upset they didn’t draft him back in 2005. Yes, that is right, Rodgers is still crying 7 years later. Well Aaron that was before Harbaugh’s time and he drafted Colin...

It’s Only January and Skip Bayless has Already Written the Dumbest Sports “Article” of the Year

Via Deuce of Davenport  |  January 10, 2013
In an industry that seemingly devolves day after day, finding the most inept, inane sportswriter can sometimes prove more difficult than expected. Last year, the title was pretty much up for grabs until the fall, whereupon Mitch Albom blew away the “competition” with a steaming pile of word turds related to the AL MVP race. This year, however, I think we can give the damn thing...

The former Super Bowl champion and the postseason newcomer will...

Packers' receivers ready, willing open? targets

Via Fox Sports Wisconsin  |  January 09, 2013
GREEN BAY, Wis. -- It seemed like it should have been a great day for the Packers' healthy group of wide receivers in the playoff win over the Minnesota Vikings. For the first time since Week 4, quarterback Aaron Rodgers had all of his playmakers on the field together for longer than one drive. But it wasn't Randall Cobb or Greg Jennings or Jordy Nelson or James Jones or...
