| Article Title :: NFL Conference Championship: Broncos And Seahawks Have Perfect Home Records |

| Article Title :: Joey Porter: NFL Officials Want The Colts In The Superbowl |
| |
| Joey Porter made pretty strong comments this afternoon about the NFL officials. He says that the referees were trying to steal the game from the Steelers and give the Colts a chance to win.The argument is pretty legitimate in theory because having the Colts in the Superbowl would make for great ratings.
