NFL, anyone paying attention?

To the extent that I cared about any of the teams in the playoffs it was Seattle.

I just have to reiterate (and I said this yesterday after Seattle had won the toss) that I hate the NFL system for overtime. It is barely tolerable in the regular season and just too much of a coin toss in the playoffs. I think they should at least have one full period of overtime and then if the score is tied go to something more drastic. Or just immediately go to the way college handles overtime now.

The games have been pretty good, the ones I've watched (two last weekend, three this weekend) but I probably won't be able to watch either of them next weekend. If I'm rooting at all it is for Indianapolis; Peyton Manning doesn't deserve a Dan Marino career.
