I'm sure after last weeks' 0-4, you guys and gals can't wait to see my predictions.  Maybe you want to bet the opposite of these and make some real money:
 
Tennessee over Baltimore
Carolina over Arizona
Philly over NY Giants
Pittsburgh over SD


Smokin!

Kurt Warner is the one old guy kickin butt

0-6 so far for the playoffs, I think it would be VERY difficult to get EVERY single playoff game wrong, but I'm well on my way (5 more to go).

You could be the Detroit Lions of the playoff predictions! It's a goal. {shrug}

For what it's worth - I never expected the Cardinals to get this far either, and I thought the way the Titans had commandeered their season that they'd be playing in the Championship Game. Weird post season.

Look at the teams with the leading rushers in the NFC..MN Gone, Atl Gone and Carolina Gone.....I guess maybe John Childress is right, this appears to be a passing league

I still like the Chargers, big today in Pittsburgh.

I think everything is setting up for a Philly/San Diego Super Bowl. I really think that Tennessee got jobbed yesterday by penalty non calls and the play at the end where the play clock ran out and they didn't call it. What is with the make me want to vomit love for Ray lewis' cheap ass play. He is a dirty mf on and off the field.

Previously roughly 80 percent of the time bye teams have won.

If not, how long before THAT thing rears it's ugly head again?

I thought they got divorced or something a few years ago?  Am I wrong?

If true, his resurgence makes sense.
OTOH, the way she was, she'll probably still be there stalking him with those pointy eyes and that beady nose.

It would really be amazing if SD wins this game.  4 and 6, 4 and 6 in the title games.

Perhaps I'll start a rant about how ugly some of these GUYS are, just to even things out a bit.

I like the Ravens but can't stand Lewis.

He is not even their best LB any more.

That other LB was the one bringing the wood.

Their story is great and I admire them personally.

But she is so ugly that the cameras should not show her every game.

Painful

She reminds me of the hideous woman who played in the Dark Knight - aggressively ugly.  That means they are so ugly you just can't ignore them.

But what is even more annoying is this new habit of flashing to an injured player every freakin play.  How many times did we see the Titans RB in the 2nd half or LT the week before?

I think he is not quite as accurate yet as Ben was but he is much better at avoiding pressure and is just as cool under pressure.
