i think Seattle will win i think Matt will have a good game throwing the ball and there D will get presure on Brett (Sea 31 GB 24)
i think Jacksonville will get the upset by running the ball (Jags 35 NE 28)
i think Indy win because they are just a better all around team (Indy 42 SD 21)
i think the Giants will win u have to win at least once out of 3 games and they have a better record on the road (NY 48 DAL 41)Last edited: Jan 8, 2008 -

I'll steal Aqua's formatt and make my own predictions!
Jacksonville is a great team, very underrated no doubt. But can they handle the Patriots? I don't think so. They might burst into a nice lead, but they'll choke. If the Steelers can rally up against the Jags, the Pats can do it two times better. I see Welker having a big day as Mathis will have Moss covered for the most part. I don't want to see this happen, but I call'm as I see'm.
New England 31
Jacksonville 17
The Chargers and Colts game will be a big one. The Colts defense knows that they have to respect LT, Chambers, and now Vincent Jackson. If Gates plays this weekend, that makes matters only worse. I think that the offense will be too much for Indianapolis' defense to handle and they'll pull out a win. Manning doesn't react well to pressure and I think that he'll make his fair share of mistakes. I think we'll see a good amount of turnovers, but in the end San Diego will have the upper hand.
San Diego 24
Indianapolis 17
The Giants team has proven they're tough as can be. They smoked the Buccaneers like there was no tomorrow and I think that there will be a good amount of pressure on Romo throughout the day. Manning is consistent but he played fairly well last weekend. I think this game will be a very close one as these two are bitter division rivals and will always give each other a tough game. One Manning will prevail this weekend and I believe that Manning is Eli.
NY Giants 34
Dallas 31
Hassellback has been fairly inconsistent to say the least and Seattle's running game hasn't much to brag about. Alexander isn't back to form and I doubt he'll ever become back to his pro bowl caliber form. I think Green Bay takes down Seattle after Seattle's offense leaves their defense on the field for too long. I believe Farve will be going to at least one more Super Bowl before he's done.
Green Bay 28
Seattle 10 -
I think Garrard's ability to run and knock people down is going to be a difference maker.
I think Indy's defense is going to be too fast for Rivers to deal with (plus I have zero belief in Norv's coaching).
I also think that Eli has had his couple of good games and he'll fall back to earth. -
Giants
Green Bay
Indy
Jags -
seattle - pack just doesnt scare me
dallas- eli goes back to playing like...eli
NE- im gonna hope and hope for jax to take it, and they will show some hope but no win
Indy- gotta set it up for the great afc championship. itll be more exciting than the super bowl, hands down. -
Here's mine
Jacksonville at New England
Go back to Saturday nights game with the Jags and Steelers, the Jags were dominating until the Steelers finally went to he spread formation. At that point Pittsburgh could do what they wanted offensively but came up short. Now imagine that 4th quarter for an entire game vs a team with much better personnel. It's not going to be pretty.
NE 45
Jags 17
San Diego at Indianapolis
The dream AFC championship will come true as I think Indy will roll here. The Chargers should have never won the first game and if manning didn't have the worst game of his career they would not have.
Indy 35
SD 13
NFC
Don't really care, it's just a matter of who will be beaten in the SB.
New York at Dallas
Upset special, the Giants are rolling and the Cowboys are limping, I'll take the Giants in a close one.
Giants 30
Cowboys 28
Seattle at Green Bay
I think this will be an interesting game to watch. I'm going with both road dogs in the NFC.
Seattle 27
GB 23 -
They still have Grady Jackson and Rob Meier at DT. Problem i sthat Meier used to play more DE on running plays, and DT on pass plays. He's tearing it up though.
The big question is how effective Henderson can be. -
NE-31
JAC-23
Indy-27
Chargers-10
Seattle-17
GB-20
Dallas-20

If Jacksonville plays the way they did last week at Pittsburgh, I'm afraid that the Jaguars season will be at an end and New England will go undefeated. The Jaguars are the only complete team in my viewpoint that are capable of defeating New England. Weather will be a factor. If weather conditions this weekend at Foxboro are dismal, then New England's pass attack may not be nearly as effective and they will have to run the ball...something they haven't done well this season and Jacksonville has excelled at.
This is my upset...Jacksonville wins as they did in Pittsburgh in a nail biter 27-24.
As with the New England/Jacksonville game, weather could be a factor at Lambeau Field. Brett Favre has been brilliant this season, but Seattle is a more balanced team, especially witht eh return of Shawn Alexander to the line up. If weather conditions are ideal, Brett Favre will have a magnificent game and defeat Seattle, but if conditions force a running game, Seatle will have the edge.
Look for Favre to great game, Packers over the Seahawks 35-27
It took San Diego to finally get into a rhythm this season under new coach Norv Turner and his complicated offensive scheme, but they finally seem to be clicking. However, when it comes to leadership and motivating a team, Norv Turner is not the man to inspire this team. The Colts have gotten alot of their players back from injury and the tandum of Manning to Harrison looks to light up the scoreboard in Indy.
Colts win big, 34-13
The cowboys and the Giants. a classic match up if there ever was one. Eli Manning has taken alot of criticism this season and has still have to live int he shadow of his big brother Peyton, but he's won his first playoff game earlier than brother Peyton did. Still, overall, the Cowboys are much to powerful for the Giants and although New York will put up a valiant effort, they'll come up short.
Cowboys 38, Giants 24. -
