I can honestly say no result would surprise me this week and the games should be interesting.
AZ vs. Green Bay...I shall refrain from making a pick due to my obvious bias, I will say the Pack are playing very well and Rodgers is very confident, it should be a great game.
Philly at Dallas...I don't like Philly's secondary, they look like they are playing 2 hand touch. Cowboy D is playing well, but McNabb will come to play. I'm taking Dallas for sure in this though, as long as Romo plays well (which is a big "if").
Baltimore at New England...Even though the Pats went 8-0 at home this year, I'm having a tough time taking them. The Welker injury is huge, Ravens will play Moss physical all day and throw a Safety over the top and double him. I like Baltimore.
Jets at Cincy....Cincy will force Sanchez to beat them, I would think they will put 7 or 8 "in the box" and focus on stopping the run. Jets are solid on D, but in the battle of Trojan QB's, I like the one with experience for sure....Cincy to win.
Who you picking?

I'm liking AZ, Dallas (I don't buy this hard to beat a team 3 times), I think ochocinco is going to go nuts in cincy, and well I don't know anything about the pats and the ravens. All I know is that I'd be scared of Bellycheck (I know I know, I just like spelling his name that way) and brady... Even more scared if I knew they were stealing signals again...

Dallas
NE
Jets
???...Really would like to see AZ, but I think the injuries in the last (useless) game may just be their grave digger.

Brady is Mr. January. He has won before Welker can win again. Dallas is a scary team. They dismantled Philly when it mattered.
I have Green Bay, Patriots, Jets, Cowgirls

Green Bay..... AZ made it to the Superbowl last year being on fire the last few games, they aren't near that team this go around
Philly.... McNabb plays in the playoffs, just not the SB...
Ravens... Battle of the injuries. With Welker is out and Ed Reed back playing a limited role, the Pats offensive should be controlled...
Cincy.... Experience

LOL, nope...AZ was 8-3 last year and lost 4 of their last 5, the only win they had was home against St. Louis, they lost by almost 50 the second to last game against New England. They were a 7 point underdog at home first game of the playoffs last year against Atlanta....And thumped em.
I like it though, all the "experts" are picking Green Bay...Just like last year, when nobody gave the Cards a chance.

Who knows maybe he was refering to getting "hot" in the playoffs... Personally I think lightning doesn't strike the same place twice...

Not what he said...And AZ is certainly a better team on paper this year, they upgraded 2 positions on defense and added Beanie Wells, other than that the exact same team as last year. I think they miss Todd Haley (offensive coordinator last year, now Chiefs Head Coach) though.
They have 3 major guys that didn't practice yesterday, Boldin, Campbell and most importantly DRC (Rogers Cromartie). DRC is very concerning as he is their best corner, and his backup sucks.

I would hardly call it "lightning", Cardinals are as talented as any team there is.

LOL, His backup QB at Central Washington played at my golf course about a year ago, he still stays in touch with him, and said he would tell him hello for me...Somehow I don't think I would quite make the SB list.

LOL, whoops... I guess ESPN painted a different picture inside my head of the Cards last year.
I think a lot of 'experts' just want to see GB to well. They just on that wagon at any chance, like the Ingles. That said, with a team playing not up to their level, and a team playing well, I'll always take the latter.
