NFL Picks: Conference Championships

My playoff record is 1-3, losing twice betting against the Jets. I'm definitely due for a 2-0 week, so I'm feeling pretty confident about both picks.

In the AFC, I'm taking the Colts -8 against the Jets. This is finally the week that the Jets' Cinderella season comes to an end. The Jets got real lucky last week when San Diego missed three FGs. I see this game as a complete blowout, something like 31-3.

For the NFC, again, I see a mega blowout. Farve is going to throw for 3 int, a couple of which are going to get returned for Saints TDs. Final score, 38-10.

Saints -3.5 over the Vikings

NFL Picks: Divisional Playoffs

Last week, I went 0-2, so chances are I'm going to go 2-0 this week. Positive thinking, people.

I picked against the Jets last week, and lost that bet. This week, I'm betting against them again. I don't see the Jets coming closer than 10 points in this game. They beat up a reeling Bengals team last week, and actually wasn't as dominant as the final score made it appear. The Bengals missed a couple of easy FGs that would have made the game much closer.

Chargers -7 over the Jets

The second pick, I'm not as sure about. I'm picking the Saints over the Cardinals. I don't think the Cardinals defense is any good, and the Saints offense was the best this season until week 14. I see this game as a blowout in favor of the Saints.

NFL Picks: Wild Card Playoffs

I'm feeling pretty good about the AFC games. I have no idea what's going to happen with the NFC games. The NFC lines are true, and so I would stay away from them.

I'm pretty confident about the Bengals -2.5 over the Jets. The Jets were handed two gimmies, so I wouldn't take their late season two game winning streak very seriously. The Bengals have been a tough group all season, until the end. They've dealt with tragedy all season, and have battled through it all.

The other AFC game is a tricky one. I'm taking Pats -3.5 over the Ravens, but I'm not too confident about this one. Bellichick has done some strange things recently and I believe Brady is breaking down. I actually don't think the Pats will miss Welker's presence for one game because they have Randy Moss. I expect a huge game from Moss, at least two TDs. It's going to be a close game, but I see the Pats winning by at least 4.
