Chiefs win because Manning only throws 3 TDs
Cowboys win because no one covers TO and Glenn
Pats win because Belichick is better than Mangini (not to mention Brady > Pennington)
Eagles win because Giants shouldn't be in the playoffs

Why do people think the colts are going to win? The Cheifs have LJ, the Colts have the worst run stop in the leauge. Whoever controls the run controls the playclock and thus controls the game. It could easily be a career day for LJ.

Cowboys havent been playing too well recently either.

I dont know why jets do so well. They have pretty lackluster numbers but still wing games. Must be efficency. Either way ,the PAts are a good team.

Eagles. I have to go with my Eagles. Giants 2-6 down the stretch. Eagles just beat 4 in a row (3 in a row for conference teams). Eagles 3rd teamers beat up on Atlanta starters. Thats how pumped up the Eagles organization is right now.

Your Chiefs/Colts theory works really well for Eagles/Giants. Eagles have not stopped the run lately, and Tiki is a machine these days. Add Brandon Jacobs, and the Giants could run it right down the throat of Philly all day. Not saying it's gonna happen that way, but if you go Chiefs for that reason you should go Giants as well. 🙂

You know i'm an eagles fan. As far as colts/cheifs, Im' an impartial observer.

Besides I beleive we stopepd yuo a few weeks back? You guys may be back for a rematch but My Eagles are no fire.
 
LOL @ Anyone picking the Cowboys to beat the Seahawks. Have you not seen how bad Dallas has been the last few weeks vs how well Seattle has been coming together the past 2 weeks? Seattle's finally going to be pretty healthy on offense for the first time since week 3.

Besides, the game is at Qwest Field...the loudest stadium in the NFL.
 
Indianapolis 27, Kansas City 24
Seattle 17, Dallas 13
New York Jets 21, New England 20
Philadelphia 31, New York Giants 24

Let's see how wrong I can be.
 
Since Indianapolis has been so explosive and dominant in the regular season and then sucked in the post-season, maybe this year will be the opposite and they will get their act together in the playoffs.
 
Colts
Seahawks
Jets
Eagles

I really want the Cowboys to win. I think Romo is the real deal. But I think the Seahawks have their number.

LJ is just plain nasty, but if the Colts D makes a few big stops on him Peyton can easily cram a few TDs down KC's throat. KC just isn't a very good team.
 
My predictions:

Colts-Will make it through the first week but that's it.
Cowboys-Were thoroughly embarrassed last weekend and will come out thirsty for blood.
Patriots-Will find a way to beat the Jets.
Eagles-Giants are overhyped and in disarray.
 
Cowboys will lose. Romo will make a few error'd throws, giving Seattle a couple of gifts by way of interception. Seattle will stuff the run forcing Romo to win it for them. Everyone claiming Romo is having a miracle season must have not watched the last quarter of the season; he was mediocre at best.
Parcells constantly runs it on 1st & goal; 2nd & goal, and then will run it on 3rd & goal.. and try the same fvcking play on 4th & goal. Good teams will stuff that $hit every fvcking time. Who is the Cowboy's offensive coordinator? Whoever it is, needs to wake up and realize this isn't the 80's. If they continue that same BS, Seattle is going to make the 'Boys look silly (just as Detroit & Philly did).

Yep, if LJ has any kind of a day, they are going to run right over Indy - plus, Indy is the all time choke leader in the playoffs - I can hear Peyton crying already!

Cowboys/Seahawks could go either way, they are both playing like crap going into the playoffs. My bet is on Hasselblad choking, and Romo stepping up, so I went with the Cowboys.

Seahawks have played fine the last two weeks.
They had the Chargers beat, except for a stupid completion they allowed with 30seconds left, and last week the played like themselves.

Watch Romo choke.

Indy 21-17
Seattle 24-10
NE 24-21
Philly 35-21
