Would love Luck and Indy to win, but when it comes to playoffs its a whole new intensity, so not sure they will be ready for it

not only are all the home teams better teams, they are playing @ home, man

seattle is not that good, specially when they have to travel across the country(okay so they won at new england earlier in the year, w/e)...their secondary is nasty but front 7 is weak,they are coming off a ZERO sack performance vs st.louis

tie breaker: predict total points scored in super bowl, duh...and it's not the price is right, you're allowed to go over

I don't think Houston is for real. They had an easy schedule, and lost to the few decent teams they played. They also barely scraped by in the 2 games they won in OT, which were to teams with losing records.

I don't see Luck pulling it off away against the Ravens. I think the Ravens D will step up, so them and Ray Rice will keep the Colts offense off the field, or put them behind enough for Luck to throw some INT's when attempting passes out of desperation.

I don't like Washingtons defense enough to stop the high scoring Seahawks. I don't think the Seahawks will score as much as they have been, but they have the better D so that's why I picked them.

Gotta go with GB at home. I think they will put up enough points where Ponder will have to make some plays if the Vikings are going to win, and I don't see him doing that away.
 
I should probably mention im going to be shredding powder for a week and a half during the playoffs and may or many not get around to scoring (I wont have internet on my phone and will be staying at a remote hotel). Should be pretty easy compared to the normal pickems, so if anyone wants to take the helm feel free.
 
Supposed to be 11 degrees at KO in Green bay at 7pm local time on sat night.

The conspiracy theorist in me thinks GB took their foot off the pedal against the Vikes last sunday knowing full well that even if they lost they would host them the next weekend at home.

Expect GB to roll in this one at home.
 
changed my picks to all the home teams. i just can't see cincy beating houston at home. houston has beat them the last 4 times they've played.

I scored every week I participated in without volunteering and without a single word of thanks from anyone and endured a collective bitch fit when I decided I didn't want to.

Im such a horrible person.

^ He was just joking around I think.

We had 4 or 5 people go 4/4 this weekend. Nice.

Edit: Looks like 6 people did.

Slightly boring to pick all the home teams this week, but I honestly thing theyre the better teams with the possible exception of GB/SF and SEA/ATL (the NFC is the only conference with more than a couple really good teams, surprise surprise). This is by far the best weekend in the football season though, and when youre talking about the top 8 teams in the league, anything can happen.

I will never bet against my 49ers. Plus GB just got lit up by a mediocre QB with a strong running game and defense a couple weeks ago (very similar to the 49ers formula). Coming to SF will be tough, and I like the 49ers chances. Hopefully J Smith is healthy by next weekend.

NE should handle Houson handily in every aspect, not much to say there.

Bal and Den could be close. Yea yea, the Broncos havent lost in months, but Baltimore is playing with fire and Denver hasn't played anyone worth a shit for quite some time (other than.... Baltimore). In the end, Manning will be the difference in a close game.

Seattle and Atlanta could go either way aswell, I think Seattle got lucky that RGIII wasnt 100%, and they will face a high potential and rested offense next week. ATL needs to stop Lynch to win though, the game could very well hinge on that.
