Jets vs Steelers
This should be a great game, the last time they met it was a low scoring slug fest. I think the Jets have a chance but the Steelers pull it out and win by a FG. Philly vs Vikings I like the the Vikings if Moss is 100% but I don't think he will be so Philly wins by 7. I think Philly really has to make a commitment to running the ball and getting their TE's and RB involved in the passing game. Also McNabb needs to runn the ball. Indy vs Pats I think this will be a dog fight. The Pats want the field to suck, but I think it will backfire. Indy comes in and runs the ball like they did in the opeaner. Edge is the better running back, pluss if they get him going early it should open some big plays in the passing game. I think Indy wins but the Pats put up a good fight. Ravs vs Atl. I think the Rams offense will continue to roll and Marshall Faulk has a good game here. I think if the Rams can put the heat on Vick and the Falcons to score they should be in good shape. I think it will look like the Rams blow them out but Vick comes back in the second half but falls short. Championship games Indy at Steelers Rams at Philly |

My predictions:
-NE will win against INDY-Want NE to win simply cause Vanderjat has his footin his mouth. Vanderjat quote, "NE is ripe for the picking". No better way to get NE pumped. -PIT will win against NYJ-Simple. The Steelers are the best team this year, and deserved their 15-1 record, top of that, they got the most complete well balanced team in the league. Darn good football team. -ATL will win against STL-I don't like the Rams. They are lucky to be in the playoffs. Who the hell makes the playoffs with an 8-8 record, and, has a -24 TO ratio, and, with luck plays a mediocre team like Seattle in the 1st round? Only in the NFC. Only STL. I don't think there good and it will catch up to them. ATL smokes them this weekend. -MIN will win against PHI-Simply cause I have to pick an upset. I think Philly made a mistake not playing McNabb the last 3 weeks. Sure it's good to rest the guy, and not take any chances(injuries). But, that's where the rust comes into play. The last thing you want from your captain is for him to lose rhythm. Let's face it, he was hot. So why not just play him a little? Not saying play him entirely, but, don't rest the guy entirely either. Plus, their best performer all year, Owens is hurt. And he makes a HUGE difference. he opens up Westbrooks game. Pinkston and Mitchell aren't good in the playoffs. Last year was evident. Philly's defense is ok, not spectacular. they are going to have their hands full against a Vikes offense. Which I think, is, one of the best in the league. Moss is banged up, but, will play and that's what matters. Vikes have gained confedence, no better way to do it than winning in the frozen tundra Lambeau Field. I think it'll be a very close game. But, for some reason, I gotta gut feeling Minny will be the cinderella this year. |

I'm rooting for the Steelers. I don't mind New England or NY Jets.
I'd like to see Atlanta in the Super Bowl. That would be fun to watch.

OK. This thread is not going well. I guess we're all depressed and don't feel like talking about it. I can totally understand.

Indy will break the streak.
The steelers are too well rounded for the Jets. The Eagles will make it to the Conf. Championship game and lose... again. The Falcons are the most overrated team in the NFL and will drop to the Rams. |

Indy will win - after all, they did create a new rule just so they could get the Colts in. It is the "no cornerback is allowed to do his job" rule. It will stop the mugging the Pats put on the Indy receivers last year.
Pittsburg - they realy are a well balanced team that can beat you multiple ways. Philly - I hate Moss and don't want to see this 4-year-old in a man's body succeed. Not that he realy cares about anything but himself. The ultimate "Me first" guy. Atlanta - Rams got in on bad officiating again. Lamar Hunt realy needs to talk to Georgia F. to find out who to mail the checks to so he can be like the Rams/Broncos and buy off the officials. Who ever this guy is, I am beginning to think the Rams have a direct deposit account with him. |
