New York Jets
AT
Cincinnati Bengals

Jets

nflpackage_jets

With arguably the best cornerback in the league, and a threatening run game, I have to pick the J-E-T-S.

Bengals

nflpackage_bengals

The Bengals rested a lot of starters last week, and their season has been too emotional for them to lose in the first round.

Cowboys

nflpackage_bengals

The Sanchize will throw four interceptions and look more like Vinny Chase trying to act than an actual NFL quarterback.

 

Jets

nflpackage_jets

37-0 anyone?

 

 

Philadelphia Eagles
AT
Dallas Cowboys

Cowboys

nflpackage_cowboys

With Tony Romo playing like a seasoned veteran, the Cowboys should have no problem at home

Cowboys

nflpackage_cowboys

The Cowboys are playing with a chip on their shoulder and surprisingly peaked during December.

Cowboys

The ‘Boys will get a thirteen year-old teenager monkey off their backs with a win over Philly.

Eagles

nflpackage_eagles

Andy Reid is 7-0 in playoff openers, and while Dallas may be good, watch their woes continue.

Baltimore Ravens
AT
New England Patriots

Patriots

nflpackage_patriots

Brady + Bellicheck + playoffs + at home = a long day for the Ravens

Patriots

nflpackage_patriots

The Patriots are 8-0 at home. ‘Nuff said.

Patriots

nflpackage_patriots

Tom Brady will throw more touchdowns than he has children.

Ravens

nflpackage_ravens

No Wes Welker, no chance.

Green Bay Packers
AT
Arizona Cardinals
Cardinals

nflpackage_cardinals

Kurt Warner is one of the best ever in the playoffs. An underrated Cardinals team should win.

Packers

nflpackage_packers

Hot teams win superbowls. I don’t think it can get any simpler than that. Besides, good looking players make good plays.

Packers

nflpackage_packers

Aaron Rodgers is quickly becoming one of the best young quarterbacks in the league.  His first playoff game will be a special one.

Packers

nflpackage_packers

Aaron Rodges continues his breakout season into the playoffs, repeating his 33-7 rout of the Cardinals last week.
