Wildcard:
New Orleans Saints at Seattle Seahawks:
With as many Seahawk games as I have picked wrong, this one worries me. But not too much cause it will be a slaughter...unless...no, there is not unless. Winner: Saints
New York Jets at Indianapolis Colts:
Man, Rex Ryan is a fatty fat fat. Not sure how that plays into the game, but I am just saying. Manning is the most dangerous QB in the play-offs right now, so unless they bench him for Curtis Painter, this will be a blow out. Winner: Colts
Baltimore Ravens at Kansas City Chiefs:
This is actually the hardest pick of the week by far. I keep hearing about how Flacco's experience in the play-offs will be the difference. Yet his experience turing the ball over to Troy Polamalu didn't stop him from losing the last meeting with the Steelers. Playing at Arrowhead is tough as well. Unfortunately, I am going to have to take the Ravens since the Chiefs only win against a play-off team was the...ick...Seahawks. Winner: Ravens
Green Bay Packers at Philadelphia Eagles:
It will be cold in Philly and Green Bay has never won in cold weather, so this should be a blow out, except I think that Rodgers kid may be good (i.e. I have a total man crush on him). I think the defense shuts down the Vick (which is too bad, because if they met the Jets in the Superbowl, the jokes about Vick playing a coach with a dogs name would be too rich) and the Pack goes 4 wide all day and runs the score up. Winner: Packers
Divisional Round:
Indianapolis Colts at Pittsburgh Steelers:
I do not think the Steelers are long for this world. Their defense is great, but I felt the whole team was out of rythm all year. Winner: Colts
New Orleans Saints at Atlanta Falcons:
Matt Ryan at home and the Madden Curse finally getting Brees. Winner: Falcons
Green Bay Packers at Chicago Bears:
In Cutler I trust...to throw a whole bunch of interceptions. Winner: Packers
Baltimore Ravens at New England Patriots:
Not gonna happen two years in a row. Winner: Patriots
Conference Championship:
Green Bay Packers at Atlanta Falcons:
Packers make it a road sweep. I like Rodgers in a dome with his receivers. Winner: Packers
Indianapolis Colts at New England Patriots:
Yeah, I am sick of this match up too, but that 13 year old girl married to the super model will finally prove he is good enough to be an NFL QB with his 5th Superbowl appearance. Winner: Patriots
That Big Game Thing That Everyone Watches With The Funny Commercials And Stuff:
Green Bay Packers and New England Patriots in the Good God That Is A Big TV Dome
I picked them at the beginning of the season, time to do it again. My crush on Aaron Rodgers must come full circle. GO PACK! Winner: Packers
