Super Bowl 2014 VIDEO: First Look Event Update #2
Another great weekend of NFL playoff action featured a relentless San Diego team who wouldn’t go away, a cocky but entertaining 49ers team who featured a flashy Colin Kaepernick, and two teams in Seattle and New England who compounded their worthiness of being two of the top teams in football yet again. But what are people really talking about as we approach the biggest non-Super Bowl weekend of the year?
San Diego 17, Denver 24
What everyone is really talking about: Peyton Manning said “Omaha” 13 thousand times.
Manning also, apparently, wants a Bud Light.

Charles Barkley — yes, a basketball player — calls out Patriots fans.
San Francisco 23, Carolina 10
What everyone is really talking about: This pastor out of Montana did a one-minute service to make the 49ers’ kickoff.
Kaepernick trolls Cam Newton’s Superman pose after TD. Ya, these teams hate eachother.
New Orleans 15, Seattle 23
What everyone is really talking about: Following their win Sunday, the Seahawks announced that ticket sales for the upcoming NFC Championship against their rival 49ers will only be accepted with credit cards from select states, which doesn’t include California — essentially an attempt to keep 49ers fans out of the stadium.
