Unless the injury report changes my mind, gonna go with:

Steelers over Dolphins, by 17
Raiders over Texans - Raiders have been getting it done on the road. I wonder if Carr is like Carson Palmer in that when it comes to the playoffs, he'll either be injured or giving substandard play.


Since Carr has had A FREAKIN BROKEN LEG for 2 weeks and is out for the season...

I'm sure your other picks are well considered though.

Carr clearly allowed himself to be hurt. Duh.

Not only Carr but 2nd string McGloin out too

Rookie first start in a playoff game. Now that's baptism by fire.

A few notes:

* Steelers did very little in the air after the big start and now is hurt. I think the KC game will be real tough for them
* Seattle is very beatable this year. Their defense is average at best. Detroit had a ton of big plays wide open but Stafford's broken finger made his throws too far off target.
* Texans have no shot
* GB losing Nelson will hurt against a better team

Chiefs might surprise some people I think they will be a tough out

When it didn't seem the Giants would mount much of a comeback, I was actually hoping the Pack would pile on some garbage points, just so when the Pack falls (assuming they will), it's a bigger fall .

Status: offline 		My pre playoff picks were crap. Steelers only one I got right. Preseason I picked Seattle in NFC championship game against MN. Ok here we go, I agree with JC that Seattle is beatable but I also think that Matt Ryan hasn't proved he can win a big game. Advantage Seattle.

I like Chefs and Patriots.

Packers will roll the boys. I am going to enjoy that.

Packers at Seattle for NFC Championship - Do Packers get revenge for 2015?

Chiefs at Patriots for AFC Championship (all along I have picked NE, but I would like to see the Chefs win at Foxboro)

I am feeling Packers Chiefs Super Bowl.

Still going with New England/Seattle rematch. This week I reserve the right to blow this up and pick different next week.

Yup.

The hail mary and the idiot kickoff "return" at the 3 really hurt. Dropped passes...

They should have schooled GB.

I think the DAL OL is going to run right over GB. The play action should toast them.

PIT has been by darkhorse team all year. They still are...

Some of those you have to catch because the gunners are waiting at the goal line to down it there but the one punt was a low liner screaming towards the end line and he caught it going back towards the goal with out stretched arms. That ball had a 99% chance of going in for a touchback

It was like he had never received any instruction on when or when not to field a punt.

Status: offline 		The reason why people used the 10 yard line is because it doesn't matter if the gunners get it at the 5 or you do - you are backed up

Better to let it bounce

1. The gunners could knock it into the end zone
2. It could carry into the end zone
3. If you field it with that many people around you a fumble is a major issue
