I like your picks except I think the eagles come out of the NFC.

A 3-6 seed is never the favorite to go to the super bowl.

Re: NFL Playoff Predictions thread
 

hey guys-

is there any scenario where NE would go to SD in the second round?

Re: NFL Playoff Predictions thread
 

if they still had McNabb, and given how far the Bears defense has dropped off due to injuries, I'd say they would be reasonably close

Indy and NE win

Re: NFL Playoff Predictions thread
 

Do you want real analysis or homer analysis?

I'll do some real analysis. The Chargers are probably the best team in the league. Baltimore is probably the second best team in the league. The Bears are probably the best team in the NFC, and being at home will help them a lot.

The Patriots and the Colts are much better than the Jets and Chiefs, respectively. Eagles are better than Giants.

I can't believe Seattle's favored over Dallas in the first round, but it seems to be correct.

Looking forward to all of the AFC matchups, which should be awesome, and Eagles-Saints should be entertaining.

O/U on Larry Johnson rushing yards at Indy?

Re: NFL Playoff Predictions thread
 

If Indy and NE Win, Indy plays Baltimore, and NE plays SD. There is no way that Indy plays SD if they win, they will be guaranteed a game against Baltimore. Top seed gets lowest remaining seed.

Re: NFL Playoff Predictions thread
 

140 is my guess. I'll actually take the under.

Colts tackle well, they will stop the run much more effectivley. Bob Sanders will also help immensely.

Nope, no way. If philly is a 63% favorite in each game, they're breakeven in super bowl chances with a 50% avg favorite with a bye.

I'd say the Chiefs have a better shot at making the SB then the colts do. No way Colts survive LJ,LT,Jamal, and Dillon/Mulroney

Re: NFL Playoff Predictions thread
 

Chiefs seem to be becoming a darling upset pick. Crap. We really need that "no one thought we would win" chip on our shoulder. Media pick another upset!

Re: NFL Playoff Predictions thread
 

Bears HFA is the most overrated thing in football. They have lost their last 3 games at home in the playoffs. Their D has looked mighty average lately and I'm not sure how much the extra week off will help injuries for the team.

By the way, Chargers-Saints would be pretty much the most entertaining Super Bowl in about 15 years.

San Diego 45

On the other hand, Ravens-Bears would be deadly zzzzzz.

Typo? Or do you think Rivers and Tomlinson will be stymied by that brutally effective Jets defense?

I understand you're defending your prediction post where you correctly picked NY to be a surprise AFC playoff team, but San Diego scoring only 10 against them shows a bias so severe that it can't be taken very seriously.

But at least Rex and Greasy would set the record for most interceptions in a Super Bowl with 15.

Until Marty shows me that he can open things up in the playoffs, I think that he will continue to be a conservative coach when it matters most. Obviously I'm just throwing numbers out there, and I only thought about each prediction for a split second before writing it down, so to be honest I wouldn't expect you to take my predictions here very serious. If I have a more serious prediction or thought then I'll be sure to think it through and provide a solid argument. This thread just seems to be for throwing out a few predictions, so thats what I did.
