My Ravens made it too! And their going to smear the Steelers all over Heinze Field. We lost the first two games we had against them, but you know what they say-the third time's the charm!  :biggrin:
...except for one little thing.  When the Colts win, they'd play the Steelers and beat them.

I didn't mention it cause I knew it wasn't gonna happen.  :P

THE LIONS.  All the Lions did was post the worst record in NFL history by becoming the first team to ever go 0-16.  I mean, the Lion's have always been bad, but now with this historic feat, the whole world gets to know just how retched this franchise really is.  :thumbdown:  Now despite all of that failure and ineptitude, there is one team here that stands above the rest.  The Red Wings continue its high standard of excellence year in and year out, and is the lone team that people around here can be proud of.  :thumbsup:
The Ford family has experience in running a well-organized, well-managed multi-national organization without any trouble.  I don't see how they couldn't turn it around.

Oh wait....

You don't need to tell me how much of a joke Ford is.   :P

Anyways, here are my 1st round predictions,

Atlanta 27
Arizona 21

Philadelphia 38
Minnesota 13

Baltimore 20
Miami 17

Indianapolis 31
San Diego 35 (I smell an upset here)

It's been a tough year for sports here in Michigan.  The Wolverines (football) posted their worst record in its 129 year history.  The Tigers, a team that was expected to compete for the World Series, end up finishing last in the division (yeah, behind the Royals), and so far have done nothing to improve.  The Pistons are in definite decline.  I think that's all the teams... oh wait, I almost forgot.  THE LIONS.  All the Lions did was post the worst record in NFL history by becoming the first team to ever go 0-16.  I mean, the Lion's have always been bad, but now with this historic feat, the whole world gets to know just how retched this franchise really is.  :thumbdown:  Now despite all of that failure and ineptitude, there is one team here that stands above the rest.  The Red Wings continue its high standard of excellence year in and year out, and is the lone team that people around here can be proud of.  :thumbsup:
I want to know, who even keeps the lions going?!? THEY SUCK!

Well, I went 3-1 last week in predicting winners, so that's not too bad.  Arizona surprised me with how well their defense played.  Here are my predictions for the divisional round:

Baltimore 13
Tennessee 20

Arizona 24
Carolina 28

Philadelphia 20
NY Giants 27

San Diego 17
Pittsburgh 27

Yeah you just can't give us the ball that many times. You'll lose every time. The Titans are lucky that Ed Reed didn't have another hot day, or else it could've been much worse.
