I think the Saints take it this year. They can score as many points as anyone and have a better defense than the Packers or the the Patriots.
In the AFC, I like the Ravens.
The Ravens got a chance, but I still dont trust Flacco on the road especially if that road is in NE when its 25 degrees.
It possible Pitt get NE in the 2nd Rd as long as Houston wins (but with no Schuab I dont think they can beat who is left. Yes I'm penciling Pitt in to beat whoever wins the AFC West.
So we will probably get Pitt at Bmore 2nd round. I dont know if Bmore can beat Pitt 3 times in one year, especially with Flakky Joe in a big playoff game.
So Pitt at NE to go to the Bowl. NE can't defend good enough to stop the speedy Pitt WR's and I think Pitt wins its third road playoff game.
NFC I think Packers and Saints are the top class. But the Lions can bring the pain as well and I think they beat the NFC East team in the 1st round.
I think the Saints get by the Falcons.
So we got Lions packers at lambeau. Packers wont lose to division Rival at Home this time of year they advance.
Saints go to SF to play 49ers. If you think I think Alex Smith can win a playoff game you are wrong. Saints win.
Saints at Packers to go to the Bowl. both teams have flaws on Defense, both teams dont run the ball very well. Saints have more more RB's and have a traditionl style offense. Pack spreads it out alot.
Packers give up alot of yards on defense trying to create turnovers. Saint blitz alot giving teams that can block the chance to make big plays.
I think Rodgers does just enough to make those couple big plays that are needed, Saint miss a FG (45ish yards) in the cold weather at packers win 27-24.
Pitt then gets two weeks to get healthy and there fast recievers get to run all over the dome. I think Pitt wins SB 35-24.
But I hope I'm wrong.
Also I will edit this after this week if the sedding changes.
