Predict the playoff games

Considering all 4 road teams beat the spread wild card week those lines are pretty big except for Frisco.

The teams I would like to see win are NO, Indy, Car and SD. Not likely to happen but there could be an upset or two.

Diamond said "
The Chargers has Denver's number, they held Denver to their lowest point out put twice this year and beat them in their last game, and it's no wonder since their head coach Mike McCoy was Denver's OC and wrote their play book, this will be the biggest upset in the playoffs, my upset pick, another 6 seed goes wild."

I got to agree with that. This would be the most stunning upset of all.

Indy at NE --Like most Steeler fans I want to see NE out as soon as possible. But I don't see it here--Oh heck, get them out quick. Come on INDY.

NO at Sea -- Same thing here. Those Hawk nuts can go screw themselves. But I don't think the Saints win there. Seattle

SF at Car -- Maybe Kaepernick will get rattled here otherwise SF gets too close to 6. Come on CAR.

SD at Den -- Diamond summed it up fine. SD

 

3-1
This weeks wieners:

49ers
Patriots
Broncos
Seachickens

Although I will be rooting for:
49ers
Colts
Chargers
Saints

 

I was awful last week but, this week:
Saints in the upset
Patriots
Panthers
Broncos

 

saints
pats
sanfran
denver


but i root for the panthers

 

I think the ironic thing about NE this year is all the talking heads are saying oh they lost Wilfork, Gronk, etc. how can they win? They can win because unlike past years they have a very dependable, dangerous running game. Where they lit up the scoreboard for 40 points going pass happy but then didn't have the ability to run the ball to control, they now have the ability to truly grind it out.

I think Denver is the past version of what NE used to be in those years when they scored 40 points a game, but didn't have enough toughness to grind it out. NE will probably beat Denver if they get by SD. Also for a year where Brady has a sub 90 QB efficiency, he may actually have the best running game since the Corey Dillon days which might help them win it all.

I hate the Patriots, but continue to marvel at how well they manage personnel that puts them in a place to compete year in year out.

 

Can't really find anything there to disagree with. But since they handled Indy as expected this forces me to now switch to a Denver win. Why? No way those Patsies get to bring their zebras to Denver. There goes their passing attack which seems to be about 75% Pass Interference calls. The reverse will happen in Denver.

Did anyone notice the missed call on the tripping of Luck on a critical 3rd down play when the game was still on the line?[1st series 4thQ]

How about the critical 3rd down PI call that opened the flood gates and led to a 14pt lead. Brady throws into triple coverage and way over the head of the receiver plus out of bounds by 5 yards and NE gets rewarded with a TD. This will not happen in Denver. Those fans will shove those zebras up Krafts butt. So unfortunately I now have to pick Denver to avoid the upset. Cannot rely on any one of the 3 relatively inexperienced NFC QB's to do the job on NE in the big game.

 

4-0 and 7-1 in the post season.

Yeah me. Too bad it means absolutely nothing.

 

Looks like Seattle over the 49ers and Broncos over New England, at least the way I see it.

I like Seattle in the SB a lot over either team from the AFC.

 

2-2 this weekend. I see it as Seattle over N.E. in the big dance.

 

This is what I think will happen. But I'd like to see SF over either AFC team. Also would like to see Seattle's D dismantle Denver's O.

 

i hate sf and pats , so go seattle and denver . than seattle crush manning


what will happen ? another nightmare like last year sf vs brady

 

I'll stick with my original prediction and say Seattle vs. Denver, with Denver winning it all.

 

Wow? A lot of posters did very well Elvis, [not me] but this was unreal. Each game and comments right on target. Nice!

Well down to 4 and I am finished. All those teams worked their butts off to get there and I really hate to root for or against any of them.[Well maybe just a little]

 

Mostly, I just want NE to lose. And I think they will, go Peyton. I am rooting for Seattle to stop the 49ers and they will. Seattle beats Denver in the Super Bowl.

 

I'm pretty sick of this Manning love fest, Belichick has beat Manning 10 out of 14 times, seems he has his number, so patriots over Denver: Niners are balling, they will shut down Wilson and his offense and win this game by 3 to 7 points or more...Superbowl will be the niners and the pats...niners will win the SB this year...

 

Well I don't want NE or SF, so I'm rooting for Seattle and Denver, who used to both play in AFC west. A good matchup for a NY Superbowl. But I won't be surprised with NE and SF, a nightmare scenario. Might as well pull for Marsha then, heck Bill Cowher already said Belicheat was the GOAT

 

i hope seattle can stop the niners ..but i'm not too confident

 

I'm hoping the same
Seattle n Denver super bowl with Seattle winning
don't care for their coach but it would be better than the other three teams

 

Hey! What happened to page 2 of this thread. ]

Is it my browser or has it disappeared. Posts 1-25 are there and there is no way to go to page2???

Same thing with the Rooney want Ben to retirea Steeler thread.

Also is there anyway to stop posts from repeating in a single file??

Is this happening to everyone or is it my browser?

 

Just about everyone called the shots in the conference championship games. Needless to say the results suited most Steeler fans fine.

I have no comments to make on the big game. I only replied here to get the thread moved back up so it didn't get lost on page 2. Some other fans might have some opinions on the big game.

But I did notice that the early line had Denver a -1 pt favorite. Yesterday two other places also had -1. But one had Den at -2.5. Today two places are 2.5 and another is up to -3. The Manning factor plus the overall efficiency of the Broncos is having an effect.

Frankly, some people are a little surprised. Last week before the games some people had Seattle as the favorite. Oh well, for those that like the Seahawks to win the game +3 seems reasonable. But maybe it will go even higher?
