NFL Divisional Playoffs running thread

Good work, da. you learn quickly.

You can bring me a draft of Arrogant Bastard Ale.

 

These picks look good to me. I think the Saints-Eagles game will have more scoring, though.

 

I'll stick with my original picks for the AFC and the Seahawks game. The other NFC game I will take the Saints over the Eagles.

 

I can see the Seahawks getting bent in Chicago.

 

For the life of me, I don't understand the lean toward the Saints here. The experience edge is totally with Philly. New Orleans has NEVER been here before. And if anybody's going by the Giants staying close to the Eagles ... that's a very bad way to pick a game.

Philly has done next to nothing wrong since McNabb went down. (Well, after that first week.) Hell, they even won with their No. 3 quarterback. This is a team that is absolutely primed for a playoff run.

 

After my solid 1-3 effort last week, let's try again.

Colts over Ravens - 23-20 (vinatieri!)
Saints over Eagles - 34-20 (losing lito shepherd hurts big time)
Bears over the Hags - 27-3 (The good Rex shows up)
Chargers over Patties - 24-21 (because I hate the Patties)

 

Tommy - Think how angry you will be when the Seahawks beat the Bears. Will Romo get shot in Dallas if that happens?

 

Won't happen. We've forgiven Romo for his transgressions on the Cowboys ranch. Just think how lucky Seattle fans must feel to even be here

 

I am sure they are happy - I am. I just think it is funny that everyone is acting like the Bears have already won the game. Is the spread still at 9 points?

 

Well, the Saints did beat them once, though the Eagles are playing better now. Won't help the Eagles to lose a starting cornerback going into a game with the top offense in the NFC, either.

Both offenses can light it up and both defenses have problems. Should be fun, if nothing else. I'm leaning toward the Saints, too.

 

Agreed. The Seahawks are far from 100 percent, but so are the Bears. Grossman's problems give Seattle an advantage, too.
