When Alex Smith is the 3rd best QB on your side of the bracket, you couldn't ask for an easier path to the SB. If the Pats somehow fail at this, they will be one of the greatest choke artists in the NFL. (Which they won't, it will be NE in the SB)
And any honest Cowboys fan. Yeah, it's hard to beat a team 3 times, but so far, they're only ones who have done it. And that's still scary to any Cowboys fan.
Please tell everyone how often Romo has gotten past the Divisional round of the playoffs and remind of us all of how he has taken this team "to the promised land" so many times.
