NFL Playoffs

For what it's worth, here's my playoff predictions:

Round 1.

Indianapolis 35
Denver 14

Anyone remember last year's game when the Colts just smoked the Broncos. My brother, who is a huge Broncos fan, says he has a better chance of getting accepted into a convent than the Broncos winning this game.

San Diego 31
New York 21

Like a lot of teams, the Jets backed into the playoffs with a lot of late-season losses. Can't see them winning in San Diego this week.

St. Louis 34
Seattle 17

The Rams have beated my Seahawks twice already. And though the Rams aren't exactly a great team with an 8-8 record, the Seahawks had to stop a 2 point conversion last week to prevent their game against a Matt Schaub led Falcons team from going into OT.

Green Bay 28
Minnesota 10

Vikings suck.

Second Round

Indianapolis 38
New England 35

A shootout here that the Colts win only because the Patriots secondary is so decimated. Using a WR as your nickel back can work against Buffalo or Miami, but not against the Harrison, Wayne, Stokely trio.

Pittsburgh 21
San Diego 20

Could be the best game of the playoffs. 2 very good teams. I think Pittsburgh will win because of the weather, because Roethlisberger doesn't screw up very much, and because they are just a solid team.

Philadelphia 14
St. Louis 13

I don't think Philadelphia is invincible, even in a terrible NFC, without Terrell Owens. They beat the Rams, but barely.

Green Bay 20
Atlanta 17

An upset here. Vick goes about 7-25 with 2 interceptions. But hey, he'll run for 50 yards.

Conference Championships

Indianapolis 24
Pittsburgh 20

Great game as well. Colts win because I think they will have just too much offense for the Steelers and also because the Steelers won't be able to take advantage of the Colts' biggest weakness, being their pass coverage. On the other hand, if it's really cold, I might say it could go the other way.

Green Bay 17
Philadelphia 10

Again, the Eagles can't win without TO. Packers by default. Like the AFC game, the Eagles won't be able to take advantage of the Packers' biggest weakness, being their pass coverage.

Super Bowl

Indianapolis 45
Green Bay 38

These two teams played in a hell of a shootout earlier this season. Expect that to repeat itself. Colts won the first game and I think they'll win the second.

No one I've seen is really picking either of these teams to go this far, but since when do sports playoffs, outside of the NBA, go according to plan?
