Arizona (9-7)
In the first game I will be jumping on the Falcons bandwagon, or more accurately the Michael Turner/Roddy White/Matt Ryan bandwagon.
The offensive rookie of the year looks cool under the pressure and Turner/Norwood are a 1-2 punch that will not only run the ball strong but keep the ball for a long time and the longer that Kurt Warner, Anquan Boldin and Larry Fitzgerald are on the bench the better. Cards have a weak running game and time of possession could prove to be key.
In this game look for Atlanta to prevail over Arizona in the desert.
Indianapolis (12-4)
at
San Diego (8-8)
Spread Indianapolis -2.5
In the Late game Saturday I will stick with the road team. With or without LaDanian Thomlinson the Colts have the edge. With the newly crowned MVP Peyton Manning and his leadership and a Colts defence that is not great but usually shows up in the playoffs look for them to exploit the banged up Chargers. LT is hurt apparently, Antonio Gates is banged up and have been without Shawne Merriman all year. Philip Rivers doesn't get the credit he deserves but he may just bot have the weapons to compete with the Colts at home this week
In this game look for Indi to roll and take this game with relative ease.
Baltimore (11-5)
at
Miami (11-5)
Spread Baltimore -3.5
In the early game, again, it will be a road team special. There may be a wildcat on the loose but it looks like the Ravens will thwart it with great run and pass defence... quote Ray Lewis and Ed Reed NEVER MORE. Joe Flacco will do what needs to be done and get just enough points to snatch the victory on the road. The Dolphins have had a great comeback season after nearly going win less last year but look for the dream season to come to an end this week.
Baltimore will take this in a close game an move into the next round
Philadelphia (11-5)
at
Minnesota (11-5)
Spread Philadelphia -3.5
In the final game, again, it will be a road team and a clean sweep in the wild card week. The Eagles will swarm with a great defence and the veteran presence of Donovan Mcnabb and Brian Westbrook. If the Eagles can contain Adrian Peterson then they will get to whoever the Vikings have at QB whether it be Jackson or Ferrot.
Eagles will leave the Metrodome with a victory and move on.

2/2, not too shabby sir. I predicted Atlanta and Indy as well, lucky I did not choose to back up my pick with Proline funds. I hope you did not as well.
