NFL Wild Card Weekend Picks

Houston vs Cincinnati: In a battle of two excellent defenses and young inexperienced quarterbacks that heavily rely on their running game I think the Bengals are the better team and will win this game. Its a shame that the year the Texans finally go to the playoffs they don't have their number one quarterback Matt Schaub. This will be a low scoring game, possibly a battle to 20 points and I think the Bengals defense is a bit better and Dalton is better than TJ Yates.

My Pick Bengals by 3

Detroit vs New Orleans: In the dome of death for the away teams Drew Brees will make everyone forget the dud from last year and the Saints and Brees will put up 30+ against a highly overrated Lions defense and Stafford will get his but not enough to overcome the great robot Brees. The Saints are also a balanced offense attack and Sproles is a great compliment to Brees and the Lion have absolutely no running game and Megatron will be double covered all game.

My Pick Saints by 10

Atlanta vs New York Giants: This is the game that will make or break Matt Ryan early in his career, coming in he is 0-2 in the playoffs and needs a playoff win to solidify himself as a elite NFL quarterback.Eli Manning is probably the fourth best QB in the NFL this year and the most clutch QB this year and this season has reeked eerily of 2007 i.e. Super Bowl year. If Eli can get a little bit of a running game going and Osi plays like pre-injured Osi I think the Giants will run away with this game. The last and most important factor can the Giants cover and keep Julio Jones in check and not get beat deep short answer YES!!!!!!!!! Oh yeah and Victor Cruz will have 100+ receiving yards.

My Pick Giants by 4 (Yes another excellent 4th quarter by Eli Manning) bleh now I'm going to get killed by an Eagles fan

Pittsburgh vs Denver: Dear Lord Tim Tebow x_x the worst passer in NFL history I think yes, move over Rick Meir, Ryan Leaf, and Brian Bosworth Tebow takes the cake. Tebow is an NFL player just not a QB he can't throw, read defenses, or anything a quarterback should be able to do. Its a mortal sin and against everything I stand for to vote for Rapist-Berger but I hope they win handily to end the Tebowmania and he finally gets moved to a fullback like he should.

Pittsburgh by 17 (Broncos will score maybe 6 points)
