    Let the games begin. Use this thread for predictions, analyzing, meaningless babble and try to keep the name Tim Tebow out of it (haha). Who ya got?



    Bengals vs. Texans

    Too bad about the QB situation for Houston. I thought they had a good makeup for a deep run. I still think Foster and that defense gets by Cincy in a close one.

    Lions vs. Saints

    This should be a fun one to watch. All the makings for an absolute shootout. No team in the NFL is playing as good as the Saints. Saints put up more than Lions and win by 14.

    Falcons vs. Giants

    Giants are already in playoff mentality for the last few weeks. Their defense is playing better. Cruz has emerged as a real threat and eli is playing the best football of his career. Gmen win.

    Steelers vs. Broncos

    sorry to be debbie downer but i wont watch a single play of the entire deal, long season and all i wanna do is get away from it. if i had to pick i'd say hopefully someone from the NFC North. Pack or Det. of those two i'd say Pack. havent had a repeat in a while! enjoy the games boys and girls nothing comepares to playoff football!

    Wow a lot of Cincy picks. Nobody giving the Texans a chance? Defense and running wins playoff games. Rookie QB Dalton? A year ago terrible.

    Saints-Lions is gonna be a fun game. Cant wait. Also excited for the Broncos-Steelers. Its gonna be fun watching Tebow choke.

    If the Lions throw early and often...they may keep the game close.

    So much for getting by Cincinnati in a close one ;)

    I'm running a football pool at work and I'm currently tied for 1st with one of my co-workers. The problem this week is we picked all of the same games!

    Texans
    Saints
    Falcons
    Steelers

    Like NY said, the Saints are playing scary good right now!! It'll be hard to pick against them even in the imminent game at Lambeau!

    Lions dropped at least 2 interceptions and the "inadvertent" whistle on the Brees fumble cost them a TD. Should have been a lot closer game.

    I agree, the came shoulda been a lot closer...Lions can't drop interceptions like that or not get points when they get the turnover! BUMMER!
