Hey guys, I wanted to predict the NFL playoffs this year, so I'm gonna start my own thread and keep this going up until the Super Bowl. You are welcome to post your own picks here if you want, or just discuss the playoffs in general!
Wild Card Round (Jan 8-9): (I predict scores too, they're probably way off though. Just pay attention to my winner picks.)
They kind of should be since they have a better record then the Eagles. But the Falcons are in their division and they won more games so the Saints are a 5 seed.
i reallllyy hop seattle wins even though i know they wont just to be like " oh yea our losing record just beat out your winning all star on the cover of madden 11 drew brees Saints"
I'd like to see Peyton win at least one more so he can flash 'em at that idiot Favre. I've had enough of the Patriots. It's hard to root against the Saints, and so easy to root against the Seahawks. I'm a Lions fan, so Chicago & Green Bay are out. I wouldn't care one way or another if Atlanta takes it. Pittsburgh and Baltimore just bore me to death. The Jets I wouldn't mind, because I'm liking Rex Ryan, and I'd like to see Tomlinson win a ring as well. Soooo.. For the Superbowl, I'd like to see the Saints vs. the Colts or the Jets... with any of the three winning. Personal preference.. the Colts!

Would you really want to see the same Super Bowl as last year?! I sure want a change.

Its better if its new teams to keep it fresh. Also why does Iberic have something againest Farve? The Saints got away lots of roughing the passer penalties last confrence game not called.

That would be rich.
I'm calling Pitt vs Atlanta in the Superbowl. That'd be really hard to root for: Atlanta is my regional team, yet Pitt is my favorite team... And Pitt would win.
I have something against Favre first of all just from a Lions fan standpoint. He was the leader of a division rival, so boooo (in a friendly way). Then he has a conference while he was trying to kick vicodin and complains that he's not allowed to drink beer (Doh!). And then everyone's favorite time of year... I'm retiring, I'm not retiring, I might retire, I probably will retire, HEY LOOK AT ME AT DIDN'T MAKE A DECISION YET, but I'm not ready to make a decision yet, I'm probably done playing football. Wait a minute, did you say training camp is over? Heck yeah I'm gonna play another season.
It's just extremely rude to the team who has to go on whether he does or not. It's no wonder the Packers dumped him. They have to make preparations to play on. When you play the position he does, it's even more important to know whether he's playing or not, because no 2 quarterbacks are really the same. So you need to prepare the best team possible to work with that quarterback. I think it's perfectly fitting that this is how he went out. He could have went out on a pretty high note last year. Nothing wrong with coming a play or two from the super bowl. Especially at that age. But not Favre, nope. He's gotta do the annual Look-At-Me Fest. He just disgusts me.
@ sk8brder: Indy has only been to the super bowl once in recent history, and the Steelers only twice. If there is anyone to complain about going to often, it would be New England.
@ ilberic: Farve's staying in the NFL actually ruined his reputation, not just because of all the retiring things, but also of the ilicid text scandal that he was involved with earlier. That is what he will be remembered for by my generation. The earlier one would remember him for his playing.
Anyway, as far as the playoffs go, the AFC will most likely be Pittsburgh or New England. The NFC is wide open though.
mdv is a Jets fan, and I am too, but I do not think that the Jets are going anywhere in the playoffs unless Peyton Manning plays like Peyton Manning during that Dallas Cowboys game week 12.
Aww you got me there
The Jets will go as far as Mark Sanchez and the Jets D will take them, which could be to the super bowl. Jets have a tough game today but we not have a good corner to play opposite Revis. I'm thinking zone coverage with blitzs all day. We need to pressure Manning because if we don't, he will dismantle us.
My biased prediction AFC:
Jets over Colts Ravens over cheifs
Jets over Pats Ravens Over Steelers
Jets over Ravens
Jets over Atlanta/Green Bay
JETS WIN SUPERBOWL 45
Real predictions
Jets Over Colts Ravens over Cheifs
Pats over Jets Ravens over Steelers
Pats over Ravens to win AFC
Saints Over Seahawks Green Bay over Eagles (oh yes im smelling a upset)
