now then... went 4-0 in the Wild Card games on nfl's weekly pick 'em after changing bungals to texans... so here's hope i'm going 4 and 0 again

Ravens over Broncos... given that the pick six closed the game, i believe there's a good chance we can do this... cut on the mistakes and flat mr manning good it's the recipe for the win
Packers over 49s... I'll go here with the team that does have a QB... and now it seems a little bit of a running game too
Seahawks over Falcons... do you even have to ask... mr Ryan does not get to win in the playoffs, never in his life
Patsies over Texans... this won't even be close... again

so there you have it... please don't be a stranger... give us your thoughts

Packers, Seahawks, Patriots, and the Ravens are my picks. Smart money is still on the Broncos, but I want to believe.

So torn on Seahawks/Falcons - don't like either team but who do I want to see lose more??

Probably the Falcons. Let Matt Ryan and Mike Smith stew on an 0-4 record. The Seahawks are annoying but less so. I wish the 49ers or Packers were matched up against the Falcons, that'd be a blowout. The Seahawks game is winnable for them.

I think the Texans hit their peak wayyyyyyyy early. I don't see the Patriots having any issues trouncing them.

I really want the Seahawks to win but honestly, I think Ryan might have gotten the match-up in the playoffs where he could possibly eke out a win even with poor play. So I'll take the Falcons. I won't be upset if I'm wrong here though.

Ah the 49ers and Packers. I think the Packers win this one but again, this is a scenario that I'd rejoice if I'm wrong.

Broncos and Ravens. Broncos have Peyton but realistically our depleted defense held him in check when they beat us a few weeks ago. 204 yards and 2 TDs. I think they should be able to do even better since we've gotten some players back. Our offense needs to show up this game though. I think they will. Nail biter but I pick Ravens to win.

Ravens @ Patriots AFCCG. Seahawks @ Green Bay NFCCG. As much as I root for both Harbaughs, if Rodgers is that precise in San Fran, they're going down. As for Atlanta, they're almost as overrated as Denver. They're extremely talented, but that doesn't make them perfect by any means.

I like the Ravens only because it will be a game that is hopefully not decided entirely by injuries. Houston heated up too fast and Brady will shred up that Pass-D.

I pick the Broncos (too much of a triple threat, not to mention the unique climate, for the scrappy Ravens to realistically win), Seahawks (I have to assume the Falcons will choke again at home in the playoffs), Packers (Dom Capers has devised a strategy to bottle Kaepernick the 2nd time around) and Patriots (Brady should haze the upstart Texans) .

[The_Patriot_Way]

49'ers over Green Bay.
Atlanta over Seattle.
Ravens over Denver.

*Gulp* what about the Texans-Patriots game? Glad to see you believe in the Ravens, btw! As for the 49ers, I don't think they could pull off the Kaep Miracle twice. Capers has looked over the film and will now know exactly how to stop the erstwhile back-up QB. The 'Hawks-Falcons game is a toss-up. It really comes down to personal preference: would you rather bet on the exciting upstart team or overlook the playoff woes of a team dominant in the regular season, especially at Turner Field?

The rest of us will expect much grovelling, apologizing and the Mods to give you at least a 3 day ban from the forums for this post if we pull off the upset.

I hope you're joking. I bet on who I think will win, not on who I want to win.

If we banned people every time they were negative about the Ravens, there wouldn't be many posters left.

I thought the smiley face was a dead giveaway. I guess not.

Chris Clemons being out (ACL tear) is big for the Seahawks but I still think they can take down the Falcons. Sherman and Browner versus White and Jones is going to be fun to watch.

The no-nonsense Seahawks' defense should put the young Falcons' offense in their place- winless in the playoffs under the Ryan era. It doesn't help that their running game is in shambles. Take away the passing game and it will be a blowout. Just look at last year, when the scrappy Giants' defense shut them out at Turner Field.

[Ravens<3]

Have you guys seen this from last week?

[Ed_Reed20]

Sherman is hilarious.

[codizzle]

Ravens over broncos

Pats over texans.. Really want to pick the texans but I gotta go with Brady at home against a texans D missing players

Packers over 49ers.. =ARod

Falcons over Seahawks- Clemons out and I like falcons D to cover for ole Matty Ice's playoff issues
