Ravens over Colts
Another choke by Manning

Eagles over Saints
Defense looks good Westbrook is unstoppable

Pats over Chargers
Brady and Belichick enough said

Hawks over Bears
Grossman is horrible, and the bears didn't play enough tough teams this year

Like they always do—ridiculously. I'm not a typical Philly fan, but I think the overreactions are part of their charm.

I'm pretty sure Garcia will parlay his excellent season into a starting gig elsewhere. McNabb will come back and be his usual outstanding self. Assuming Andy Reid remains committed to the run, the Eagles will be even better next year.

Ravens over Colts (Ravens are just a better team. They'll have the ball for around 40 minutes on the clock and the pressure will get to Manning)
Saints over Eagles (second playoff win in team history!)
Pats over Chargers (maybe this is my heart and not my brain saying this one, but the Pats are a "quiet" 13 win team at this point)
Seahawks over Bears (with Greise playing in the second half after Grossman sh*ts himself.)

Eagles all the way. Garcia, while not McNabb, is pretty farking good. And hopefully, unlike McNabb, he won't choke in the Superbowl.

so far ever single pick has been wrong, in case you didn't notice. I don't think anyone is surprised.

That was an amazing throw by Garcia... too bad for the false start. Brees almost had that bomb at the end of the first half.

Neither the Bears nor Seahawks deserved to win that game. Fun to watch, but not very well played.

Ah well, it's gonna be a great game, Colts vs. Pats.

Brady one of the best QBs ever and Belichick the football genius he is. Next up the Colts.

congrats on edging me out this week.

i hate to say it, but i think the pats'll come away with this one. what fun is it if manning isn't the next marino?

though i do agree that the sine wave that is rex grossman will hit a trough next week.

pats/saints with *UGH* the pats winning it all. god i hope i'm wrong on this one. either way, i'll be watching.

Pats over Colts (I don't see the Colts ending their tradition this year, although it'd be sweet to see them play in the Championship opposed to the Pats)
