NFL Divisional Playoffs

Friday, January 14th, 2005

Only half and half for the playoff games so far. Bummer.

Divisional Playoff Weekend’s Teams-getting-booted-like-they-should Playoff Picks

Atlanta over St. Louis – The Rams might win against the fumble-headed and directionless Seahawks but going into Atlanta is another story completely against Vick and Company. Falcons beat the Rams once already, 34-17, and I see no reason not to pick the exact same score.

Pittsburgh over NY Jets – The Jets are good, but not good enough. Expect a low scoring contest with the Steelers picking up a late touchdown at the end, call it 24-17.

Indianapolis over New England – The secondary of the Patriots is beat up and the Colts’ offense is racking up yards like they were going out of style. I know the Pats seem to have the Colts’ number but it doesn’t matter how sloppy the field is in Foxboro I believe Indianapolis is on a mission. Take the boys from Indy in a high-scoring wild one, 41-31.

Philadelphia over Minnesota – The Vikings are a team that annoys me. Luckily the other annoying team I hate, the Seahawks, got the boot last week. This week the Vikes go away. I know the Eagles are missing Owens but they shall still prevail. Eagles take is 27-17.

There you be – 4 games. Hopefully 4 winners
ATL, PIT, IND, PHI
