EDITED AS OF WEDNESDAY

Patriots over Buccaneers - Homefield
Chiefs over Giants - Eli's struggling now and KC's playing pretty well
Broncos over Bills - Buffalo's the biggest bust of the season
Cardinals over Texans - At least Arizona has a strong throwing game
Panthers over Saints - NO's got a short week
Dolphins over Jets - No Martin, big problems for Jersey.
Rams over Eagles - Philly is in big trouble without Westbrook
Steelers over Vikings - Minny's played well, but they aren't THAT good
Colts over Chargers - Homefield
Seahawks over Titans - TEN has no answer for Alexander
Jaguars over 49ers - Leftwich isn't needed to beat SF
Bengals over Lions - Detroit's pretty hopeless
Browns over Raiders - Oakland's looking towards next year
Redskins over Cowboys - Homefield
Bears over Falcons - Homefield and Chicago's D is much better than NO's
Packers over Ravens - Toss up, plus I love Brett Favre

There, no one can accuse me of cheating this week. :rolleyes:

Philadelphia at St. Louis
Pittsburgh at Minnesota
San Diego at Indianapolis
Seattle at Tennessee

Cleveland at Oakland I'm not picking the Raiders here just to prove I'm not a copy-cat of HLD, but because I think the hometeam has slightly more to play for in a game that only serves to set draft picks....
Dallas at Washington
Atlanta at Chicago
Green Bay at Baltimore
That there; exactly the kinda diversion we coulda used.

I'm with RT...Redskins in the playoffs baby!

Buccaneers over Falcons - Homefield, Bucs ride the Cadillac
Bengals over Bills - Obviously
Panthers over Cowboys - Homefield, Bledsoe too inconsistent
Lions over Saints - Ummm...no clue here
Jaguars over Texans - Houston wants Reggie Bush
Redskins over Giants - Eli has issues
Steelers over Browns - Obviously
Chargers over Chiefs - Must win for both teams, but I like SD better
Rams over 49ers - SF also wants Reggie Bush
Titans over Dolphins - I think McNair can light it up again
Cardinals over Eagles - I like Arizona's guns
Seahawks over Colts - Indy's got nothing to play for
Broncos over Raiders - Randy's doing worse this year than last year
Bears over Packers - Green Bay's hopeless
Ravens over Vikings - Homefield = Boller plays really well
Patriots over Jets - Jets no match for surging Pats
