Really bad matchup for the Colts, esp seeing as how their starting lineup wont have been on the field for 3 weeks, Ravens 1st half will prob be a great bet. Might take the Colts offense alittle bit to get their timing back

Got some time on my hands tonight.

Ariz @ NO - Tough game for me. Warner is unbelievable in the playoffs. Reminds me of Dan Marino a little bit with his quick release, pinpoint accuracy, ability to find the open receiver, and confidence in the pocket. Zona will be able to move the ball and score. Zona's defense completely fell apart in the 2nd half today and guys were running open all over the field. Their confidence has to be somewhat shaken and that's not good going against the Saints offense. However the saints haven't played a solid all around game since Nov 30th against the Pats. That win doesn't look all impressive as the Pats were overrated all season and pretty terrible on the road. The last few years we have seen teams that shut it down early tend to have problems. Can't just turn on the switch again. See Bengals this year. Over looks kind of tempting, but the Saints offense could come out rusty and 56.5 is a huge number.

Balt @ Indy - Baltimore looked great today but something wasn't right with the Pats. Win looks better than it was. Pats could not pick up the blitz at all. Number of times LB's were coming right thru the center of the line untouched. Flacco didn't even have to show up today. Only 10 pass attempts for 34 yards. He will have to make plays this upcoming week. By the time this game is played it will have been 4 weeks since Indy played a full game with offensive starters. Who knows how effective they will be? Balty has only been beat by more than 10 points once all season. They always come out and play. Should be a game that goes down to the final possession, so +6.5 looks kind of temping.

Dal @ Minnesota - Dallas playing better football than any NFC team the last 5 weeks. Running game is great with speed and power. Big factor will be Romo and picks. He has to take care of the ball. On defense no one is playing better with the exception of the Jets. Of the playoff teams left I feel Minny is the most overrated team. Their last 3 road games were abysmal. Good teams don't end the season like that. They were undefeated at home, but lots of soft wins. Ignore week 17 vs a Giants team that quit. Beat the Bengals who faded after week 10. Home wins against Chi, Sea, Det can be ignored. Close home wins earlier this year against solid clubs in Bal, GB, and SF. Cowboys look good here, especially in a teaser.

NYJ @ SD - Take this with a grain of salt since I'm a Chargers homer. Jets defense is great, but I think they will meet their match. Unlike the Bengals the Chargers have weapons all over the field. Revis has made quite a name for himself. He will have a tougher challenge this week covering a guy 6" taller and 30 more pounds. It will be a good matchup to watch. Chargers O'line is the best its ever been at protecting the QB and if the Jets don't get pressure on Phillip he will have success. Sanchez had it easy last week. Most of his 12 completions were to receivers who didn't have a defender within 3 yards. Chargers will try to stack the box to stop the run early and trust Cromartie and Jammer in 1 on 1 coverage. Have been watching Charger football since the mid 90's and this is the best team they have had. Predicting a 27-17 Charger victory. Can't wait.
