NFL Wild Card Playoff Predictions

New Orleans @ Seattle
-Congratulations for finishing tied with the 2nd best record in the NFC New Orleans--you're reward--a trip to 7-9 Seattle. The Seahawks are statistically the worst team to ever make the playoffs. On paper, there is no way the Seahawks match up at all with the Saints. They may slow down the New Orleans offense, but not enough to win the game, and they surely won't score enough points to stay with the Saints. The only hope is that the Saints don't take them seriously. 
-The Pick: Saints 27  Seahawks 13

New York Jets @ Indianapolis Colts
-This rematch of the AFC Championship game from last season is maybe the best overall game of the weekend. The Jets seem to have found their groove again and Peyton Manning once again celebrated a division title last weekend. The Jets went out and got more secondary help to stop Peyton's 3rd and 4th WR's--however with all the injuries the Colts have suffered those moves are moot now. It will come down to turnovers as it normally does, and for one reason or another, Manning has been more liberal with the ball this season.
The Pick: Jets 20 Colts 16

Baltimore Ravens @ Kansas City Chiefs
-The Chiefs looked like crap against the Raiders last week and the Ravens were a form of hot garbage against the Bengals (but did win). Something has seen very off about the Ravens this year, their defense is not the same. Ngata, Lewis, Suggs, and Reed bring it--but beyond that not so impressed. KC has not won a playoff game since steroids were nothing more than an urban legend. Charles will challenge the Ravens defense and the Chiefs defense is better than what people think...however...the Ravens will find a way. Ed Reed will seal the deal.
The Pick: Ravens 26 Chiefs 17

Green Bay Packers @ Philadelphia Eagles
-The Pack are arguably the hottest team in the NFL. The birds have kind of cooled off after being the IT team earlier this year and receiving the publicity after coming back against the Giants. There seems to be a blueprint to slow this offense down, and if Andy Reid does not ride the running game against Green Bay, the Eagles will have their season end much earlier than they would like. Rodgers will rip up the Eagles secondary...too many weapons.
The Pick: Packers 31 Eagles 19

That's right. 4 road teams win. As of today, the Super Bowl Pick is Green Bay (my preseason pick) over New England.

Final Regular Season Record: 166-91
