NFL Divisional Playoffs

I know Houston’s QB is a rookie, but that’s not such a big deal to me. I don’t trust Flacco even though he has a good won-loss record and Baltimore can’t throw as well as the Bengals last week. I think it will be a close game but I will take the gamble and take the Texans in a road upset 16-14.

The Giants come off the win against overrated Atlanta and travel to the rested Green Bay. Giants can run, they have momentum and Eli Manning has gone for weeks without showing the ‘Eli Manning Face’ ™. 7 1/2 points seems like a lot but I will go the other way and give it. Take the Packers early and often, 42-20.

The 49ers don’t have much of an offense and a great defense. The Saints have a great offense and no defense. That makes for a lower scoring game. While that should benefit the home team I just like the Saints ability to move the ball more. Close, short game goes the bayou way, 20-17. If in doubt, I will pick the team that can actually move the ball when they need to.

If Denver loses by a lot will the Tebow people shut up? No, and that’s fine. Does God want Tebow to win? Well if God cared about it wouldn’t Tebow be the one married to the supermodel wife and not TT? Tom Brady is a chosen one as well. Denver can’t stop New England, but New England can’t stop anyone else either. Lots of scoring and I am looking for the back-door cover. 13 or 14 points seems to many to give. I’ll take the Patriots to win, but in a closer match, 42-31. This game above the others depends on Denver not fumbling.

    1 for 3 ain’t bad! who’ve you got in the Championships?

    I would have taken the Pats and the Giants, but not by 3 points each. Eventually you had to think the 49ers lack of passing would get exposed and I didn’t think Flacco would be as much of the man as he proved he was.
