It's playoff time in the NFL

Ok here we go folks. It's time for that grand second season those of fans know as the NFL playoffs. Here's what I think will happen. PLEASE dont go to your bookies with this analysis.

First weekend:

Saturday:
Washington at Tampa Bay. This is a tough one for me, but I'm going with Tampa in a low scoring affair 13-10. It could go either way though, the Redskins are very dangerous right now.

Jacksonville at New England. Jacksonville's 12-4 record is quite misleading in my opinion. They are 3-3 against teams with winning records, 9-1 against cupcakes like Houston Tennessee, San Fransisco and others. I'm going with the 2 time defending champions 27-14.

Sunday:

Carolina at the New York Giants. Carolina all the way here. I know EVERYBODY is talking about a Manning VS Manning Super Bowl, but they'll have to wait a couple years for that. Carolina 24-13.

Pittsburgh at Cincinnati. This is another easy one for me. I'm going with the Steelers all the way here too. There are 2 facts at work here in my opinion. Pittsburgh won in Cinci earlier this year and Cincinnati's defense the last 2 weeks has given up 74 points

. I dont care who which polayers they were playing, that sucks.

Now moving on to the second round....

NFC: Carolina at Seattle. Carolina's one week playoff run ends here. Seattle 31-17.

Tampa Bay at Chicago. This one might go into overtime 0-0 these defenses are both that good. But that wont happen. What will happen is a Chicago win, 13-3.

AFC: Pittsburgh at Indianapolis: Colts 38-17. Indy will ride the Dungy vibe.

New England at Denver: wow this is a tough one, but I'm going with the PAtriots in a close one, 21-17. This one could go either way too.

NFC Championship: Chicago at Seattle. Seattle's offense is vastly better than Chicagos, while their defense is not as good as Chicago's. The Seahawks offense will be the difference here in a close game. Seahawks 21, Bears 14.

AFC Championship: New England at Indianapolis. The Patriots will put up a good fight and may well win, but I'mk going with the Colts in a squeaker 31-28.

Super Bowl 40 in Detroit Michigan, Sunday, 2-5-06, Seattle Seahawks vs Indianapolis Colts. The great northwest will celabrate their first Super Bowl win as Shaun Alexander runs for 2 touchdowns. Seattle 24, Indianapolis 21.

Your Superbowl 40 champions:

The Seattle Seahawks

Well, for what it's worth, there are my picks. They could, and probably all will be wrong.

Hope everyone that's a fan enjoys the postseason.

I kina though youd respond that way. I know you're not a real big sports fan, but that's cool.

OH BULL****! We all with sound mind know the Colts will have the Superbowl!

I don't keep up with anyone else, hardly. All I know is the Colts want it real bad for Dungy.

Broncos...Broncos...Broncos.

Nuff said.

Broncos beat NE, Broncos beat Indy (REVENGE, BABY!), Broncos beat whoever the vastly inferior NFC puts up for slaughter.

Broncos will be Super Bowl champs.

Count on it.

Remember, I did say I could be wrong.

All I can say is that I'm glad I wasn't munching on beef jerkey at the time.

(helmet heads at work make me laugh....i know it's sad they have to wear helmets, but it's funny)
