sandiego beats the colts, jacksonvill upsets the patriots
seatle beats gb in domination style
cowboys beat the giants
and then vill beats diego and seatle beats cowwhores

although if this doesnt happen it would be pretty neat to watch a brother vs brother superbowl and see if eli can come out of his big bros shadow :)

I really like Jacksonvilles chances vs the pats, they will ground pound and try to run the clock out and play keep away. ( its a long shot and really my expectations are at 40%, they will either beat them this way or get blown out)

SD vs Ind will be a good game but IND will win

The last time the Giants lost on the road was to who?(going by memory here so if im wrong, then im wrong but i think it was in week 1 or 2 or something) Dallas, but I think they can win this game.( again haven't looked into it yet but i think isn't TO hurting or something)

GB will beat out Seattle

this is funny. you picked every upset except the cowboys. is this so you can say "i called it bitches?"

The Chargers over the Colts is not unforeseeable. Their defense is stepping up playing playoff football. But, with that said, as long as Phillip Rivers is at the helm, I can not pick them over a team the caliber of the Colts in the playoffs. Colts win this one in a close one. 24-20

Seahawks offense is horrid. The Packers homefield advantage will show itself here, where the best "running game" will win here. I have more confidence in teh Packers defense to stop the Seahawks run that I do the other. Packers win 27-17

Jags have a great chance to beat the Pats, as long as Garrard plays better than he did against the Steelers. Their defense is attacking the passer and they have one of the best running games in the league. With that said, I think everyone has looked past the Pats defense all year long. They have had a top 5 defense all year. The question here is can the Jags score enough points to win the game. I think not. Pats win 31-20

Cowboys v. Giants. Hmm..injuries ont he 'boys, and the Giants coming off of the best 2 week span they have had in a long time. The Giants have won 8 straight on the road. They are pumped, putting pressure on the QB, forcing turnovers, and as long as Eli can keep it together, their running game and medium passing game will win games. I really think the Giants are playing the best ball right now in the NFC, I think they keep it up for one more week. Giants 28-24.

Eli is proving that he's "Not a Bust". He's not his brother mind you, but he's also not a Bust as an NFL Quarterback.

This is the year that I expect him too take the Giants to the NFC Championships, facing down Green Bay, and ultimately losing that game...

Also, NO ONE is going to deny the Patriots place in history. I can see that maybe Indy as the only team that would have the tools, experience, and ability to make a run at it though. In the end, these 2 teams are going to be in the AFC Championships battling all out, making for one of the those non-Superbowl games that are worth hosting a party for.


I would like to thank Jacksonville, Dallas, San Deigo, and Seattle for participating in this year's Division round of the playoffs, and I hope they enjoy there free time in the off season, and appreciate what they accomplished this year.

I'm expecting between 10 to 28 point wins in all 4 games this coming weekend.


Chris

Favre is just near unbeatable at Lambeou Field in the playoffs... I can't see that upset happening. On top fo that, Eli is historically bad in cold, windy weather. As much as I like Eli, I think it would take a perfect game from him to beat Farve.


San Deigo is already a 15 1/2 point dog... In no way would I even consider taking those points in that matchup either.

As an added blurb to this wager - it's not that I'm a Pats fan, I'm just a guy who likes action. The Pats have already beaten SD and NYG this year, and although GB is solid this year, they don't hold a candle to the Patriots.

If I get no takers on the wager, I'll likely root for the Packers to try and get the upset against the Unbeatables in the Super Bowl. And yes, that means I think the Pack will win at the Frozen Tundra (in shitty -15 degree weather on top of that), and I think the Pats will humiliate the Chargers.

For a while now, I've been convinced that the Pats are going to run the table and top this perfect season off with the Super Bowl victory.

Windy weather, I take the Giants.

Not windy, the screen passess to Grant will slow the Giants pass rush down enough. I take the Packers.

Patriots beat the Chargers. BY A LOT!



Wow Djinn...going out on a limb there I see. All the Pats have to do is beat a team they have already beaten, that is beat up from last week, and then beat an NFC team who would rank 4th or 5th in the AFC? Risky aren't ya. :P Making this bet previously to being 2 games out against inferior competition may have brought on action, but sorry, you aren't looking for action, you are looking for a sucker.

And, it's a sin for a sucker to keep his money. On the contrary, I AM looking for action. I already have two field bettors locked up at work, so I thought I'd throw it out to everyone I know. Can't hurt, I mean, if I've got two here, that means there are two elsewhere.

I also never said I would reject offers with odds if they were given to me. In order to make a field bet in Vegas vs. The Pats to win it all, it's like 5.5 to 1. There you go.

I'll listen to any offers. I'll be at the Pre-release all weekend...

gotta say, you are right, it is a sin for a sucker to keep their money. and any given sunday anything can happen, thats why they play the games...is that enough cliche's to try and get you action here?

but lets be honest here. the only people that would bet against the patriots, are those with money to burn and those that dont know much about football.

and you may find someone on here ready to offer up there dough for your amusement. lol
