I was hoping for a Steelers win, mainly because I figured that would get a more competitive game against the Patriots next week. There was no Tebow magic when NE came to Denver a few weeks ago, I'm not expecting any next week.
In terms of the overtime rules, they stilll s*ck. There is no way that a completely random act (coin toss) should to a large degree decide who wins the game. While the toss at the beginning of the game determines initial kick or receive, and direction, that is balanced the rest of the game (if you receive first half, you kick the second half). So not sure how it's fair that in overtime, you can win the coin toss, and win the game.
If you want to have a "first possession can win the game", then make that an option, like picking direction. If you choice it, then yes, scoring on the first possession can win the game. But if you don't score, then you lose.
At least the last game of the weekend was definitely interesting. Have to admit that Texans-Bengals and to a degree, Giants-Falcons were not exceptionally excitiing. First half of the Saints-Lions game was good (until the Saints blew it open).
I'd say next week, Saints-49er's looking to be best game. Pat's, Packers, Raven's I'd expect would all be touchdown+ favorites.
