Giants 37, Patriots 35

Let me first start this by saying, if these two teams had met 10 times this year, I believe that the Giants would only win 2 out of those 10 games.  Right now, however, they are playing their finest football of the season.  This isn’t a pick that’s analyzing matchups (the Patriots are arguably better than the Giants at every offensive position).  This pick does not use any true logical deduction.  No no, this pick is purely a hunch.  I have a feeling this will be an all time classic Super Bowl.  Much like Super Bowl XXV, with a slight twist - Lawrence Tynes making the game winner as time expires.

Patriots 45, Chargers 24

This would probably be as monumental of a championship game upset as we would ever see.  That is not going to happen.  New England will win by plenty and move on to destiny…

Giants 17, Packers 15

Again, this just has all the makings of a classic.  The Giants have found their stride and continue to play the role of Cinderella.  The Packers resilience this season has been extremely surprising.  This will go down to the wire, and right now, the Giants are wearing the lucky shoes.

Last Week: 3-1 vs spread, 3-1 outright.

Green Bay 24, Seattle 10

The Packers have won with an amazing defense this year, and a running back (Ryan Grant) who basically came out of nowhere.  Oh, and that Favre guy, he still has something left in the tank.

New England 38, Jacksonville 17

Seriously, do you really think the Pats have come this far just to lose to the Jags.  I love the Jags running game, but the Pats strength defensively is against the run.  I know Garrard has had a good year, but I don’t think he can single handedly win this game.

Indianapolis 30, San Diego 27

This has all the makings of being the best game of the Wild Card weekend.  In a back and forth game, I’ll take the Colts for two reasons (1) they’re at home, (2) Adam Vinateri can be all the difference in close playoff games.

NY Giants 27, Dallas 25

Well, maybe Indy/SD will only be the second best game of the Wild Card weekend.  The Giants have hit one hell of a stride in recent weeks, and if Eli Manning can continue to play like he has the last two weeks, mixed with the running attack of Ahmad Bradshaw and Brandon Jacobs, this will certainly go right down to the wire.  The big factor: what percentage will TO be for this game?
