NFC
Detroit Lions Vs Dallas Cowboys
When the season began
I was hoping The Cowboys could be halfway decent and make the playoffs, but
they have completely out done any expectations I had at the start of the
season. The Cowboys are finally a complete team and are so much fun to watch.
They have overcome a ton of adversity throughout the season and finally killed
the December curse, hell as a matter of fact Tony Romo had a record setting
December and that’s the complete opposite of seasons past! The Lions for the
most part are a good team, but have a lot of flaws that I feel can be exposed
if The Cowboys stay on their game. The Lions defense is one of the best in the
league and are ranked first at stopping the run and Demarco Murray is the
league leading rusher, so this should be an interesting matchup to keep an eye
on. The Lions offense on the other hand has been very mediocre, Calvin Johnson
is still a beast but outside of him the offense has been weak! The Cowboys are
rolling right now and came into the Playoffs playing some great football on
offense and defense, they are mentally tough and will be tough to beat
throughout the Playoffs…I hope!
Cowboys over Lions 35-20
Arizona Cardinals Vs Carolina Panthers
I can’t believe we
have to start the Playoffs off with this shit show…I mean hey congrats to The
Panthers for winning their division and backing their way into the playoffs,
but come on we all know this team ain’t winning no Super Bowl. Neither are The
Cardinals, they are on their third string quarterback and have been free
falling for the past month. There isn’t much I can say about this matchup
because this is essentially a waste of our time matchup, but you know my fat
ass will still be watching! I’m picking The Panthers in this matchup based
solely upon the fact that Cam Newton is fine as hell!
Panthers over Cardinals 21-13
AFC
Baltimore Ravens Vs Pittsburgh Steelers
This right here is a
classic grudge match! I always look forward to when these teams play eachother,
especially in the Playoffs! Division rivals who know eachother well and play
eachother well! Ben Roethlisberger has once again carried this offense with the
help of his league leading receiver Antonio Brown and Le’Veon Bell has been a
breakout for them in the ground game. The unfortunate thing is Bell won’t be
playing due to injury. I think this is a huge blow to The Steelers and could
effect the outcome of this game. The Ravens always step it up come playoff
time, Flacco knows how to win this time of year and makes the big plays and with
the addition of Steve Smith at wide receiver I feel that makes their offense
even more of a threat. You can’t count out this defense either, led by Terrell
Suggs, Elvis Dumervil who had a quietly monstrous season on defense with 17 sacks
and they also will be getting the big guy in the middle Haloti Ngata back from
suspension. Without a healthy Bell and an aging defense I don’t feel like The
Steelers have enough fire power to beat The Ravens.
Ravens over Steelers 17-13
Cincinnati Bengals Vs Indianapolis Colts
So here we are, it’s
playoff time and time for Andy Dalton to prove he is worth the money he got
from his big contract this past off season. He’s not a horrible quarterback,
but I don’t think he’s the guy who will take The Bengals to the promise land.
AJ Green is banged up and they can’t afford to lose his offensive production,
especially against The Colts high powered offense. It’s very possible this game
could turn into a shoot out as neither defense is really impressive, but I
think The Colts will win it because Andrew Luck is a beast of a quarterback who
is less prone to choke in the big moments. History says The Bengals suck,
especially in the Playoffs what’s going to change this season?
Colts over Bengals 31-17
