Saints beat Panthers, but miss out on playoffs when Rams beat Jets in OT.

Eagles, Falcons, Packers, Seahawks, Vikings, and Rams are in.

In the AFC:

Steelers, Patriots, Colts, Chargers, and Jets are in.

Broncos win, and are in: if they lose and the Jags win, the Jags are in: if both the Jags and Broncos lose, Ravens are in.

Broncos are in, they beat the Colts.

Playoffs next week are:

Rams at Seahawks

Vikings at Packers

Jets at Chargers

Broncos at Colts

I like the Rams, Packers, Jets, and Colts.

This procedure for tiebreakers if f'n ridiculous. Vikes beat Saints, who beat the Rams, why couldn't the Saints and Vikes have been the two wildcards?

Instead, Rams get the 5 seed because they had a better conference record than Vikes and Saints and the Vikes get the 6 seed because they beat the Saints several weeks ago.

I agree, Cajunman. The Saints deserved to go.

My picks -

Seahawks (Tough at home, plus looking for revenge)

Packers (I have no respect at all for the Vikings; they choke at every chance)

Chargers (I've made the mistake of doubting them for the last time)

Colts (Easy pick here)

Yeah, I like those same picks.

Colts win easily, Jets pull one out in OT, Rams win close one at Seahawks, and Vikings win relatively easily.

Give the Vikings credit. Culpepper is probably the second best QB in football besides Manning, and he was awesome today.

Next week:

Jets at Steelers

Colts at Patriots

Vikings at Eagles

Rams at Falcons

I like the Steelers, Colts, Eagles, and Falcons.

Wow, I couldn't pick anything last week.

I like your picks this week, cb.

I wonder if Steve Young, Michael Irvin, and that other guy on the ESPN pregame show ate some crow after yesterdays game. They said that the Packers-Vikings game was the easiest game of the week to pick. They all said Packers would win. Now, I thought the Packers would win also, but I also knew that the Vikings would at least show up. Those 3 guys all had the Packers winning easily. Maybe we are all wrong about this Vikings team.

MY PICKS:

Steelers

Colts (my Super Bowl pick)

Vikings (because if they can go to Lambeau and beat the Packers, they can go to Philly and win. And plus, I just refuse to pick Philly cause I'm stubborn).

Rams

Just curious, Tasha, why do you think the Lambs will be able to go into Atlanta and beat the Falcons?

They've won three games, so they're on a good roll after a bad start to the season. Bulger is a good QB with a good recieving core. They won on the road in the cold/rainy weather of Seattle. They play in a dome at home and they're going back into the dome for their game against the Falcons. They have more playoff experience as well.

And if none of that suits ya, I just wanted to be a bit different than everyone else.

The Rams can score some points, but can they stop Michael Vick? I don't think so. Bulger has been awesome over his last few games, I think this game could be close, but I still like the Falcons.

And IMO, the Vikings have no chance against the Eagles. I will take the Eagles and 17 points.

The Rams may be a dome team, but we beat them 34-17 at home this year, and they are miserable on the road; don't let the win at Seattle fool you. We'd have to play quite bad to lose, although we're not above that.

Quote:And IMO, the Vikings have no chance against the Eagles. I will take the Eagles and 17 points.

Oh don't worry. Common sense is telling me that, but I choose not to listen to it.

3 for 4 again

I should really stop doubting the Patriots and Bill Bellicheck, the Colts were flat out manhandled, it was boys against men in that game.

So much for the Rams... :rolleyes:

The Eagles game went like I thought, the Eagles should have won by more.

And give credit to the Jets, nobody gave them a chance in the playoffs, and they played their hearts out, and should have won.

Next week I like the Patriots and the Eagles, both should be close. The NFC may be inferior, but Vick versus McNabb will be one for the ages.

I hope that :rolleyes: wasn't for me cb.

But yeah, I stepped out on two games and I got burned pretty bad. I just felt like it was the Colts year, but playing in the cold and in the snow hurt them pretty bad. It's impossible for them to win in Foxboro.

And I felt like the Eagles were going to win. Like I said, I just didn't feel like swallowing my pride and admitting it.

And the Rams-Falcons game... Yeah...that score made me look like an idiot, but I felt like there could be one upset over the weekend. Boy, was I wrong.

Falcons vs. Steelers.

You better be right for once in your life. LOL, j/k. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Ha...ha....ha.

Pardon me while I fall from laughing so hard. It's times like these when I realize I am the only girl who will speak out over here. I guess I should stop--everything I say gets questioned and laughed at.

So have your fun. This is obviously "men's" territory. I'll go back to the kitchen where I belong.

Nah, it was for the Rams pitiful defense. I thought the game would be close, the Falcons destroyed them.

Wow...

That was a joke. I didn't mean to offend you.
