I could quite possibly be looked at as a homer when posting my predictions, but at least I can admit to it. For the record, I can see A LOT of these games (except the Seahawks/Saints game) go any way. I also ride on team hot streaks so here it goes...

NFC Wildcard
3) Eagles vs 6) Packers
Eagles are at home, but they have been struggling. Their defense is beat up (I believe 4 starters out) and that is too much gone to contain the high-powered passing attack of the Packers. The Eagles defense is 21st in points allowed this season, they only have 15 sacks in the last 8 games (considered bad compared to what they did the first half) and they will need to blitz to get pressure on Rodgers. Rodgers on the blitz...107.4 qb rating which is currently the leagues best.
Packers by 10.

4) Seahawks vs 5) Saints
Seahawks get homefield advantage with a losing record. Qwest Field or not, the Saints are going to walk all over the Seahawks.
Saints by 17.

AFC Wildcard
3) Colts vs 6) Jets
Talk about two teams that have gone hot and cold over the season. Tough one...I believe Manning is too much of a genius and will once again pick apart the Jets defense. If Shonne Greene was running like he was last year, the Jets would have a much better chance.
Colts by 7.

4) Chiefs vs 5) Ravens
If Joe Flacco is able to improve from past playoff appearances then I think the Ravens will be able to take the cake against the Chiefs. Baltimore comes out of the regular season with a better record against tougher opponents.
Ravens by 6.

NFC Division Championship
1) Falcons vs 6) Packers
Rematch from week 11. Packers head to the Georgia Dome for a crazy game. Last meeting, Packers held Matt Ryan to a pretty average outing but were not able to stop the running attack. I can see this game going either way, but give the edge to the Packers this time. If the Packers can score fast and early, they can take away the run game of the Falcons.
Packers by 3.

2) Bears vs 5) Saints
Soldier Field= the worst turf in the NFL. This benefits the Bears who have played on this turf 8 weeks. The bad turf also slows down the passing attack of the Saints (as well as the Bears defense). If Cutler can decide if he wants to be a good quarterback or a terrible quarterback, it would make the decision much easier.
I say the Saints encounter a bad Jay Cutler and take it by 3.

AFC Division Championship
1) Patriots vs 5) Ravens
Patriots just tore the field up the last two weeks against minor opponents. They basically were making a statement with those last two games. This is another rematch in which the last game was decided by 3 points. Riding off hot streaks here, Baltimore wasn't so hot to end the season, NE was...
Patriots by 7.

2) Steelers vs 6) Colts
I always side with the outdoor team playing outdoor...especially in cold weather. Not only that, I believe the Steelers have the all-around edge on the Colts. Peyton is a great quarterback but the Steelers defense is better. Colts are also 25th in the league on rush defense....say hello to the Steelers rush attack, 11th in the league.
Steelers by 3.

NFC Championship
5) Saints vs 6) Packers
Anyone remember the last time these two teams met? It was 2008 and the Packers just got spanked in New Orleans, 51-29. I think the game will have a different flow this time around. Top-flight offenses and great defenses will make for an exciting game here. As a homer I am going to say...
Packers by 2.

AFC Championship
1) Patriots vs 2) Steelers
What a match up...last meeting wasn't very close (39-26 final) and I wish I had watched the game but I didn't. Brady has now won his last 7 of 8 games against the Steelers. Nothing changes there.
Patriots by 10.

SUPERBOWL
1) Patriots vs 6) Packers
Ha ha, wonder who I am going to pick. You never know, its the playoffs.

PACKERS BABY!

I like it.

I don't know if we'll get that far, but I like it.

The problem with Atlanta isn't how great they are, but how disciplined they play.

They're the anti-Packers.

They life by clock management, ball control, solid gap control on defense, just disciplined play all over.

The Packers, on the other hand, life by the big play, gamble on defense, can go 80 yards in 30 seconds one drive and take 6 minutes for 50 yards the next. They're inconsistent.

If we actually get to that game, we have to play mistake free football. Or make up for our mistakes by big plays by our defense.

Fan Shout
Zero2Cool (24m) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (4h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (4h) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (5h) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (5h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (5h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (5h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (5h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (5h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (5h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (5h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (5h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (6h) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (6h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (6h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (6h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (7h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (7h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (7h) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (23h) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.
dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.
Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb
wpr (9-Apr) : yay
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland
Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'
Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you
Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.
Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?
