It's finally here :D
Two games on Saturday, two on Sunday. Nothing better than that. I felt like breaking them down and giving my picks. :D
Game 1: Atlanta Falcons @ Arizona Cardinals
A lot of people are picking Atlanta to blow out the Cardinals, but I am not one of them. They are bringing a rookie QB/Coach into Glendale, Arizona. You know that it's gonna be a zoo in that stadium, the fans are going to be buck wild. The Cards also have Kurt Warner, who is 7-1 all time against Atlanta. I expect a shootout in this game, but the veteran will school the rookie.
Arizona:38
Atlanta:28
Game 2: Indianapolis Colts @ San Diego Chargers
Another game that the road team is being taken. I once again go against that. San Diego has given Indy problems as of late, winning three out of the last five. Even though Indy went into Qualcomm and beat the Chargers earlier this season, it was only by 3 points, and that Chargers team was not the same one as they have now.
Chargers:24
Indianapolis:17
Game 3: Philadelphia Eagles @ Minnesota Vikings
Philly is the better team here. They have more playoff experience than the Vikings, and I don't see Tarvaris Jackson outplaying Donovan McNabb. The Vikes do have Adrian Peterson, but he is apparently injured, and the Eagles are a pretty good run stopping team. I'm calling a blowout.
Philadelphia:28
Minnesota:10
Game 4: Baltimore Ravens @ Miami Dolphins
The Ravens went into Dolphin stadium and stuffed the Wildcat that the Fins love to run. Now they go back and try to do it again. Flacco has been playing exceptionally well for a rookie, but is getting outshined by Matt Ryan. I don't think a rookie QB is gonna do well in that hostile environment that Dolphin stadium is sure to be. Chad Pennington continues to lead the Dolphin dream season in a low scoring game.
Miami:17
Baltimore:13
I'm willing to take bets on any games you disagree with me. :O

I agree.... on all but i think Minnesota might beat Philadelphia.
Game 1: Atlanta Falcons @ Arizona Cardinals
I think this should be a good game. Warner, Bolden and Fitzgerald for Arizona and Michael Turner for Atlanta. Bottomline, I think Atlanta's defense will hold.
Arizona: 24
Atlanta:31
Game 2: Indianapolis Colts @ San Diego Chargers
Indy is still feeling last year's tough loss to the Chargers. They will be ready this year. I feel a blowout coming...
Chargers:14
Indianapolis:38
Game 3: Philadelphia Eagles @ Minnesota Vikings
I'm a big Vikings fan so I am pulling for them here. Should be a good game. IF minnesota doesn't turn the ball over they can pull it out.
Philadelphia:21
Minnesota: 24
Game 4: Baltimore Ravens @ Miami Dolphins
We all know about the feel good story of the Dolphins. Pennington and Brown are their offense. I see Baltimore stuffing the dolphins all game long. Pennington will throw a pick or two and Baltimore will win.
Miami: 6
Baltimore:17
Bets:
I bet you 40 credits on the Baltimore-Miami game
I bet you 30 credits on the Chargers-Colts

Arizona already won. 30 to 24 over the falcons.
Colts 24 Chargers 21
Both these teams hate each other so it should be a real close one!
Dolphins 17 Ravens 7
Betting on a defensive struggle between these teams.
Eagles 24 Minnesota 30 (OT)
An over time because of how good these teams have been playing lately. The Eagles just got off a lucky wild card finish and the Vikings have been playing some good football with Adrian Peterson, so we will see.
What do you think?
