The 2007 NFL playoff thread picks
 

Wild Card - Saturday & Sunday 1/6,1/7

COLTS -7 over the CHIEFS W (over 51) L

a rematch of the "shootout" a few years back, the question is; will the Colts be able to stop Larry Johnson? He'll be the "main weapon" vs. the Colts defense. I look to a high scoring game again...went back and forth with this one.
COLTS 35 CHIEFS 24

COWBOYS +3 over the SEAHAWKS W (over 46.5) L
the "slide in team" versus the "banged up team". Even though the Seahawks are at home, thier so banged up they may not stop a Dallas team who needs to stop the pass. The most even match up of the three games this weekend, also the two "coldest teams".
COWBOYS 26 SEAHAWKS 21

JETS +8.5 over the PATRIOTS L (over 37.5) W

The "master vs. mentor" round #3, it's playoff's and the Pat's rarely lose
but I think the Jets will try a upset chance late...but in the end...the "master"pulls it out.
PATRIOTS 24 JETS 21

[i]GIANTS +7 over the EAGLES W (over 46) L
Rematch #3 - the rubber game...The G-men need another super effort from Tiki, it's the only chance they have.
The Philly crowd will be loud, but being a divisional match up...7 points are too much. In a close game...
EAGLES 28 GIANTS 24

Chief 35 Colts 28
Eagles 30 Giants 27
Patriots 45 Jets 16
Seahawks 26 Cowboys 13

I CAN'T GET NO LOVE!

SEE first post :)

Last week (Wild card Sat. & Sun.)
with the lines 3-1 / over & unders 1-3

COLTS +4 over the RAVENS (over 42pts.)
The Colts defense looked like the team their playing this week and shutdown the Chiefs w/ Larry Johnson,
a repeat effort would be something for the Peyton led team
the Ravens are hungry and may be even better than the Superbowl team of 2001.
Nevertheless, the Colts pull out a close one as the Ravens offense comes up short.
COLTS 24 RAVENS 20 W +4 / L "O"

EAGLES +5.5 over the SAINTS (over 49pts.)
The Saints will be up for this playoff game at home. The Eagles continue to win, but weren't that impressive last weekend.
The Saints are well rested...but this has the look of a high scoring close game.
Sorry, Steve and Eagles fans...but the clock strikes twelve for Garcia and their Cinderella season.
SAINTS 32 EAGLES 28 W +5.5 / W "O"

SEAHAWKS +9 over the BEARS (under 36.5 pts.)
The banged up Seahawks limp into Bears country and a lot of pressure on the team who clinched so early.
It will be very tough for the team from the Pacific Northwest to score points.
The Chicago offense may be shaky, but their defense is NOT!.
BEARS 21 SEAHAWKS 13 W +9 / L "U"

PATRIOTS +5 over the CHARGERS (over 46.5 pts.)
The youngsters versus the seasoned champions...
San Diego steamrolled through the AFC this year...The Pats have experience on their side.
Tom Brady & Belichick getting that many points??? WOW...
but, in the end...LT rolls up the late victory.
CHARGERS 32 PATRIOTS 28 W +5 / L "O"

Last week (4-0) lines / (1-3) O & U

SAINTS +2.5 over the BEARS (over 43 pts.)

Momentum is the key here...the Saints looked better last week than the Bears
whose highly touted defense gave up 24 pts. to a banged up Seahawk team.
"America's new team" looks like thier ready for the Bears at home
and it's only a matter of time when Rex Grossman implodes...
SAINTS 26 BEARS 19

COLTS -3 over the PATRIOTS (over 47.5 pts.)

This is it, Peyton's biggest chance to erase all his demons.
No chance better at home versus a Patriots team who got lucky last week...period!
Will the Colts defense continue to play great? and will Peyton Manning have an explosive game
and finally get to that next level??? Something tells me he will.
COLTS 35 PATRIOTS 24

This one's for 2 mins.to Post,
Looking for Peyton to have a career day...my prediction
a COLTS BLOWOUT!!!

As I have posted before I dont bet against Brady when the money is on the line. Today I make an exception. I think its Mannings year Colts and the over, a nickel apiece. Good Luck, KP

2006 NFL playoff record : 8-2 (with lines) 4-6 (o/u)

SUPER BOWL XLI

COLTS 30 BEARS 16

Fast start for Petyon and the boys and never look back...
Bears defense takes a "back seat" to the Colts "D" and Grossman has the almightly turnovers and it cost him.
Reggie Wayne has a big day and is your MVP...Peyton has a good game and Tony Dungy gets that "big win" he deserves!

In a big game or regular season game, what quarterback would you rather have?
PEYTON MANNING or REX GROSSMAN ???

enuff said!
