The pick for the Divisional Playoffs weren’t that hard. No way Arizona was going to take New Orleans. And while Dallas might have had a chance, it’s obvious they didn’t show up to play in Minnesota. Course it was great to see all those monstrous arrogant egos from Dallas looking totally dejected. I can’t stand Dallas!

So way to go Indy, New Orleans, Minnesota & the Jets. 

Here’s the picks:

Double do-over didn’t seem to help any of the previous losers.

I hope Arizona’s defense made it to New Orleans, my guess is NO will bring theirs.

Here’s how the rest of the playoffs look to me:

E.W.

Well, I wonder when Philly will get to Dallas… The deadline now is moved back about 9 months or so, so no hurry.

I don’t wanna talk about it!

Here’s the picks:

There aren’t any good bets, never are in the playoffs.

I sure hope that two weeks is long enough for Philly to make it to Dallas, clearly one week wasn’t long enough…

I hope that the teams who threw their final regular season games to “rest their starters” don’t make it to the Superbowl. Their fans deserve better than that. Unfortunately both of those teams appear to me to be going to the Superbowl. It sure would be funny if the Jets beat Indy next week… Here’s how the playoffs look to me:

E.W.

I wonder if there has ever been a double do-over in the playoffs before.

So here we are the 1st weekend of the post season and we have some of the same matchups as last weekend. Can Philly beat the Cowboys at home this time? We hope so, we’re both picking the Eagles to win. We have the same picks for most of the games except the Jets and Cincinnati. I don’t think the Bengals will allow the Jets to blow them away and shut them out at home. So that’s our weekend tie breaker.

There were some unexpectedly good games this past weekend. And some that should have been good that fell far short. Several games came down to who wants it more. Miami and Pittsburgh was a better game than I thought it might be and it was obvious the Steelers wanted that wild card spot more. Both teams had to rely on other teams faltering, but to get there they had to win the game first.

The last weekend of the regular season. We haven’t been doing great here in the past few weeks with our choices, while the Big Daddy has been improving with his computer prediction/tracking program. So let’s just get right to week 17 from me and the Prince.

Happy Yule, Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukah, Merry Kwanzaa

I don’t want to talk about my Titans or Redskins. sniff sniff. But kudos to the Panthers for taking the Giants down.  Good Job!

Here’s the picks:

There are two good bets this week if you think like the computer. One is that Indy will cover the spread. Considering last week, they made it clear that they don’t plan to win any more regular season games, I’ll be surprised if this bet is still good after the game.

The other good bet is that Seattle will beat Tennessee thus, covering the spread. I like this bet.

As a result of the decision by Indy to lose the final two games of their regular season, it’s interesting that they could face the Jets again in the playoffs. The computer says they will. Maybe the Jets beating their starters would make the Indy fans fill a little less gypped. Here’s how the playoffs look to me:

E.W.

Think coach Belichick saw what coach Ryan did and said, “And you thought going for it on 4th down was bad…”

The Prince and I both are picking the Titans in an upset over San Diego. Come on, it’s Christmas day; miracles can happen. I’ll be wearing my #28 Chris Johnson Jersey (I just love that kid, man he is good!)..who knows what luck may come our way!

The Prince is also making a bold upset pick with Detroit over the 49’ers. Who knows, he’s been right on weird upset picks before. Course he just told me that his picks are based on his favorite team, the Eagles, Ravens, Cardinals, Jags, Bengals…..basically all the animal teams are his favorite team. Though he is very partial to the Eagles. Not sure Momma who grew up with the Redskins is totally ok with that, but he’s cute; so what are ya gonna do.

So here are our basic party line picks for the week. Go Titans!!  Although I love my Redskins, I got burned on picking them last week from the heart. Even hoping can’t beat a better a team. So I’m ignoring my heart this week and picking…gag..do I have to say who.. No I don’t. I’m not picking my Skins this week and we’ll leave it at that.
