Games
Sunday January 24th
New England @ Denver 2:05 PM
Arizona @ Carolina 5:40PM

New England-Pats keep rolling and Manning doesn't have anything left in him. Plus, screw Denver!
Carolina-This one is a toss up. I feel with the way the Green Bay game went and being on the road, Arizona wont have anything left.

Can I get credit for picking the Seahawks in a close game and the chiefs in a big win in the first round? Reference the first thread and conversation with Pete.(I didn't realize this was a formal thing)

 

[wccards21]

I guess since I've got numbers on here now, I'll see if I can miss again.....

I want Denver to beat NE....but NE wins

Carolina

Patriots

New England at Denver: The Pats tend to be a different (and much more vulnerable) team away from Gillette Stadium but I have to agree with many that Peyton Manning just isn't his old self. Look for a lower than expected total score but Brady will lead the Pats back to the SB by 7.

Arizona at Carolina: This could be another playoff classic and don't be shocked if it goes to OT! Purely because they are at home will go Panthers by 3.

Arizona at Carolina: Although most playoff games come down to QB this one comes down to WRs who lead each offense (Steve Smith and Larry Fitzgerald). This could be another playoff classic and don't be shocked if it goes to OT! Purely because they are at home will go Panthers by 3.

Steve Smith plays for Baltimore...

 

[SadButTrue]

Denver and Zona

Fixed.................OOPS.

 

[wc3peat]

New England Patriots- healthy recievers and Tom Brady= game over
Arizona Cardinals- Carolinas Dbacks will get smoked if front four cant get to Palmer

It wasn't really a formal thing but then coachperk tallied the picks after the first round and I just continued it. If I gave you credit for those picks, the other ones would count as losses.....

If anyone wants to make this a more formal contest I would suggest, beginning next year, do a progressive point system: 1 pt. for each win in the Wild Card round, 3 pts. for the Divisional, 5 pts. for the Conference Finals and 10 pts. for the Super Bowl with a score tiebreak.

Pats and Cats

What's funny, Vegas picked New England matter a fact most the world did. Brady had 300, Gronk 144. The kicker missed an extra point and they shoulda kicked a field goal but didn't. As far as my Carolina, you watching the game? The front four are getting there and very fast. Palmer will still put up some numbers just will be to little to late more than likely.

 

[hitch_and_go]

Hes putting up numbers alright.....lol

 

[Kenny56]

Lol

 

[hitch_and_go]

Carson will NEVER EVER get over this! As far as New England that was hard to watch................look at the O Line play in the NFC vs. AFC title games today: No comparison!

 

[hitch_and_go]

20-36 200 yds 1td 4 picks.

 

[Kenny56]

Only game I may have missed should have been Cincy and steelers. Figured pack would beat skins. Forfeit two games and still have more than you right, peat.

 

[wc3peat]

Your a GOD in your own mind Kenny...

True, but Denver's front seven is going to be Fun to watch against Newton.

More than likely Mannings last hurrah
