NFL Weekend Playoffs Thread

[declansharbor]

The Car/Ari game will hover around the spread(10-14 pts) and a late back door cover by Ari makes it somewhat interesting. The ole eastern time zone thing actually carries some weight for this Ari team. Even with Boldin listed as questionable, I think you could throw KGB and a pair of stilts back there and still throw for 250. This one comes down to time of possession and who can give their defense more of a breather...Car 27 Ari 20

Baltimore and Tennessee engage in a bruising running contest. Collins shouldnt even LOOK to throw the ball to Ed Reed's side. Cortland Finnegan makes the game ending interception. Flacco will be back though, this kid has ALL of the intangibles. (sorry dad, he has a Vegas SB pick (55-1) on Bal)...Ten 20 Bal 13

With Plexico watching from home, no wideout of the NYG demands the double team. This allows B Dawk to fly around and Q Mikell to roam into the box more often which in turn will stuff the box and cut down on how many times Jacobs and co. get to the second level. It also allows Jim Johnson to dial up some of his crazy blitz schemes forcing turnovers, turnovers, and even more turnovers. Look out for deflected passes at the line of scrimmage. Find me a defense playing better right now and I'll call you an @$$clown. Typical division matchup. I will be able to breathe once Don starts to kneel on it. No Pisarcik...Phi 23 NYG 16 (At least I hope so)

I'm not sure the defection of LT will matter too much in this one. Sproles should be stretched from hash to hash. He shoots out of a cannon and with his size, Pitt will need a GPS to locate him. Polamolu (sp?) is overly aggressive and can envision him taking a bad angle or two. The Chargers are playing great ball right now and are confident enough that they can beat whoever lines up against them. Their last 5 games suggest that is the truth. Roethlisburger will either hold the ball too long or make his patented ill advised throw. The terrible towels are stomped on once more for good measure...SD 24 Pitt 20

God I love playoff football!

Anyone else want to tell me how the NFC South is the best division in football still....after the AZ Cardinals steam rolled the two playoff entrants from that division?

[ddthetide]

i didn't see either game, sounds like i'm kinda glad. maybe i shouldn't watch the steelers tomorrow either.

[The Indomitable DrugS]

The Cardinals better start PRAYING that Philly wins - so they get the NFC Championship game at home. They want no part of the Giants in the cold.

I watched Arizona play New England in the snow - New England was up 52-0 at the start of the 4th quarter... and they made enough mistakes that the score could have been about 80-0 with a bounce or two here and a drop or two there going NE's way.

The Chicago Bears played the Falcons and the Panthers. They had both teams beat and managed to lose the game in the final seconds. Just saying if The Bears beat you or at least should have
you ain't THAT good.

I hope the Eagles win so that AZ can host
