NFL.com has a video compilation of plays from this year. I enjoyed watching it and the song was pretty fitting: http://www.nfl.com/videos?videoId=09000d5d80ddf5c8

My favorite parts were at 0:37 and 3:50, with Jacobs rolling over a Redskins player and McClain shoving the Cowboy player with one arm. And, of course, the amazing catches.

WOW WHAT A Thriller is this game!!! :D
I felt my heart beating when Stover lined up for that FG...

This will be a great division championship! Either the Chargers or Steelers face the Ravens, should make for another great game! The AFC sure delivers :D

I'm calling a rematch between the Steelers and the Ravens for the game they played near the end of the season. The Steelers went into the lion's den and won, I think we'll see a repeat of another close game.

In other news, I'm stunned that the Cardinals are dominating the Panthers. Stunned :|

You really think the Chargers have a chance?

Absolutely, why wouldn't we? When the teams last met in week 11 (at Pittsburgh), the Chargers lost by 1.

We were underdogs in the Tampa, Denver and Indy games, and look what happened there. Not to mention the Colts were on a 9 game winning streak.

The Chargers do have a chance if you ask me if Sproles and Gates are having a good day - Pittsburgh however needs to have a good day on offense too if they want to win this I think...

I just hope that it's going to be a great game :D

Same goes for the Eagles versus the Giants, yet here I'm more biased and I hope the Giants do win, I love their running game...

Well, the underdogs have seriously stepped it up. After seeing 3 of the 4 of the top seeds lose, I can see the Steelers losing this game, which is funny because the Chargers didn't even have a winning record, barely making it into the playoffs (something of which I take serious issue with... who cares if you won the division, you don't have a winning record!)

Now that it's official, I'm pulling for the Cardinals in next week's NFC Championship game. I'm simply stunned that the top seeds were taken out. Well, not so much with the Titans, I was iffy and would've picked the Ravens, their D is intense. I'm pulling for the Steelers and want to see a rematch of the Steelers and Ravens for the AFC Championship.

Wow, did not see a loss for the Giants coming - but the Eagles really deserved it, they were better all the way, the Giants just seemed powerless...

I agree with Mathachew though, I'm pulling for the Cardinals as well, Fitzgerald is just a blast to watch!

Still hoping that one of the AFC teams win the Superbowl though :p

Very nicely done for the Steelers D pushing them back and holding them. This is not exactly what I expected the game to do, I expected slush, slip-n-slide kind of playing; I'm very glad that it wasn't one of those, I can't stand those types of games.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By +samw61 · Posted

      I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.

      I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.

      The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.

      I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
