Divisional Playoffs

Just some quick picks for this weekends NFL action:


Saturday's games:
Titans over Ravens (in a close, defensive battle)

Cardinals over Panthers...upset special. Much like the two teams I will talk about in a moment, the Cards have momentum working for them in many forms. First they wrap up the NFC West and then played horribly. Everyone wrote them off quickly (me included). So they wanted to win to prove everyone wrong, which they did last week. Add last week's big win to the momentum and the Cards are a team to be reckoned with. I'd like the Panthers to win, but if the Cards can pull it off then why not. Plus their QB (Warner) is down with J.C.


Sunday can go either way. The home teams should win, but I wouldn't be suprised if the visitors pulled upsets. Kinda like the Cardinals, both the Chargers and Eagles ended their seasons on a hot streak. The Giants lost their top receiver (to prison) and had issues getting it back together - though they had a huge win over the Panthers in week 17. The Steelers/Chargers game might be good. Both teams have late injuries. The Chargers are all offense while the Steelers are gritty on defense.


Sunday's games:
Giants over Eagles (just can't give the Eagles the win)

Steelers over Chargers (A good defense usually beats a good offense. If the Steelers QB isn't in top form though the Chargers have a shot)
