Well guys, nice predictions there....here are my predictions and a follow up.. 1. St Louis at Atlanta I think St. Louis has come good at just about the right time and they are looking awfully impressive. Marc Bulger is red hot in the play offs as we saw him throwing for more than 300 yards in the last game. Torry Holt will have a big game. I think Vick does too much with the ball sometimes in the line of scrimmage, I think he concentrates too much on getting out of the pocket, most of the time its been effective but I think if the Rams defence can cramp him for room, he will have a hard time throwing the ball to his receivers. So, I think Bulger will reign supreme. I go with Rams. 2. NYJets at Pittsburg Chat Pennington will have to show his accuracy and he will have to create something to peg back the Pittsburg defence early on. Also their defence will have to have a big game to stop the Bus and Staley and their rookie sensation quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. He has been awesome, but I think he hasn't looked particularly impressive in throwing the ball. Unless Bus and Staley and create something with the run, I expect Herman Edwards to come up with a plan stop the Steelers with an upset victory. Santana Moss will have a big game. NY Jets will be my choice. 3.Minnesota at Philadelphia The Vikings, came out firing against Packers in the last game at Lambeau after their disappointing loss to Seattle and their media blitz with Randy Moss on the hotspot once again. I don't like Moss, but he has to make plays if Vikings are going to with this one. Also, Culpepper has had a great year, overshadowed only because of Manning's mastery. I think the tight end Wiggins will have to big role to play. Vikings hasn't had a good running game, as their best running back happens to be their quarterback. Eagles on the other hand are fit and fresh. McNabb will look to exploit the Vikings defence whiich came good last semester, he has to understand that there are some loop holes in the defence which can be pretty ordinary at times as we saw througout the season. TO's loss will be a big factor. I take Culpepper to fire once again and take Vikings to victory. Their explosive offense can put enough points on the board. Vikings will be my choice. 4. Indianapolis at New England This is a showdown of two great quarterback in NFL history, both of them are on their way to a Hall of Fame someday. Tom Brady has looked very impressive, but this is Manning's year, without a doubt. Little can stop him, as he has so many receivers to pick through as he chooses. All make big plays and even the tight ends have had some superb games. Reggie Wayne was awesome in the last game and this time Harrison will shine. Tom Brady will have to have a best game of his life to beat the high flying Colts offense, Billichick will need an extravagant strategy to stop Manning. But I think, it will be Manning's day. Colts for this one. Just some thoughts....!
