Big C · 12-31-2008, 08:51 PM

Here are my picks-

Arizona over Atlanta- I know Zona can't play defense, but neither can Atlanta.

Chargers over Colts- I don't care how well Indy has played and that they have Manning- all that matters to me is that they can't run and can't play defense. Peyton can't make up for so many flaws.

Dolphins over Ravens- Pennington's been in the playoffs; Flacco hasn't.

Vikings over Eagles- Sorry, wrecky and iggles, but I don't trust the Eagles on the road this year (only 3 road wins) in a tough environment.

Wreckless · 12-31-2008, 09:03 PM

Atlanta
Colts
Ravens
Eagles

Sorry WF but the Colts have put it on. They have an ok team with Marvin Harrison aging, Jeff Saturday being injured, their defense in general and at spurts this season being very bad and Peyton Manning not looking the same, but I think they will win.

Arizona and Atlanta, along with Miami & Baltimore will be the best matchups and games. Atlanta is being overlooked. I wouldn't be surprised if either team won, but I am going with Atlanta.

Other than my Super Bowl XLIII picks, I haven't made any predictions in years but at the risk of making a fool out of myself, I think I'll give it a shot.

Eagles over Vikings 27-10, After that can of whoop-ass they handed Dallas, I don't see them having much of a problem with Minnesota.

Atlanta over Arizona 17-14

Miami over Baltimore 34-21

San Diego over Indianapolis 21-17

Wreckless · 12-31-2008, 09:10 PM

Charles, I agree with all of your scores, except that 21-17 Colts/SD game could go either way.

I think the cardinals will find a way to win this one... I just have that feeling...

I think the chargers will beat the colts
i think the ravens will beat the fish
& last but certainly not least I think the eagles will get it done against the vikings.

I'm actually surprised you're picking the Cardinals.

All season long, you had been saying Zona was a team that doesn't get up when punched in the mouth.

I assumed you'd use that theory.

Wreckless · 01-01-2009, 11:13 PM

Chris; picks for this weekend?

Big C · 01-01-2009, 11:16 PM

Already listed my picks, Wrecky, but I'll post them again:

Arizona over Atlanta- I know Zona can't play defense, but neither can Atlanta.

Chargers over Colts- I don't care how well Indy has played and that they have Manning- all that matters to me is that they can't run and can't play defense. Peyton can't make up for so many flaws.

Dolphins over Ravens- Pennington's been in the playoffs; Flacco hasn't.

Vikings over Eagles- Sorry, wrecky and iggles, but I don't trust the Eagles on the road this year (only 3 road wins) in a tough environment.

(I'm sorry, but as much as I want to pick Philly, I'm just a bit skeptical for this reason- Brian Westbrook, arguably their most important player, is a guy who can run for a lot of yards, but the Vikings have good rush defense. Also, I am curious as to how Philly's young wideouts will respond to playoff pressure.

Honestly, Eagles/Vikings is the only playoff game this weekend where I am not super confident in my pick, almost 50/50 down the middle)

I still feel that way bro... I don't think the falcons will be able to punch them in the mouth... This is a very favorable matchup for the cardinals... I think the cardinals will find a way to get it done... Would it shock me if atlanta won?? No not really... but In the playoffs experience does matter & warner has a ton of it...

My eyes have deceived me once again Chris, my mistake on that. It's cool, your picks are your picks. Cool.
