Sad to see him go, but it was inevitable.
Not sure any coach worth his salt would want to the Vikings job at the moment, we're a mess and things are likely to get worse before they get better.
Yeah, the Rams are made out like bandits with that one.
Was reading an interesting piece about "blackouts" for teams which don't sell out their play-off games; had no idea this rule existed, but it looks like it could effect three of the wild-card games.

Am I the only person that finds it ironic that he's crazy ginger AND wearing an orange uniform?
EDIT: Thats weird, I always thought Lambeau Field was a sell-out crowd regardless... as in, tickets were like rocking horse poop?

Looking forward to some great football tonight!
I think the main problem is that teams jack up the ticket prices for play-off games (cheapest seats were reportedly $120, and average price was way higher than that) and fans just don't have the disposable income at this time of year to justify spending that sort of money. The fact that it's a bitterly cold winter also probably doesn't help, especially since they have a tough draw in the 49ers.
Would you want to spend a fortune to sit in the freezing cold and watch your team lose?
Anyway apparently team sponsors have bought all the unsold tickets, so the black-out is off:

Supposed to be (including wind chill) -35 at Lambeau tomorrow. It could be insanely awesome to watch. Colder than the Ice Bowl. Just hope no one actually gets properly injured, or no fans die as a result!

Palmer was ginger too, it's a Bengals thing
Great 1st half for KC, Colts barely getting any big gains on offence at the moment.
