Baltimore Ravens - Pittsburgh Steelers
This game will be played in Pittsburgh with two teams that DO NOT like each other. Both teams play a tight defense, and have monsters on both sides of the ball. In their last 22 meetings on the field, Steelers have won 13. This is going to be a GOOD game.
Atlanta Falcons - Green Bay Packers
It's a good thing Atlanta plays in a dome! With all the snow and ice they have had in the south, especially Atlanta, the thought of playing a home game in Atlanta - in the snow doesn't make it seem like a home game at all. Nonetheless, the Packers are going down to the frozen south to try and do what many teams in the NFL have not been able to do at the Georgia Dome. That is win.
The last meeting between the teams was this season at the Georgia Dome where the score was a tight 27-24, a Falcons win.
With the hostile working environment the Packers face, lets see if they can get it done.
Chicago Bears - Seattle Seahawks
Have you even been witness to an act of God? I have, last weekend while watching the Seahawks beat the New Orleans Saints (who by the way, won the Super Bowl last year). The Seahawks are NOT good. In fact, they have a losing record. They are by definition the best of the worst and have somehow found a way into the playoffs.
Chicago and Seattle have already played once this year where Chicago lost at home 23 - 20. It's embarrassing, but what would be more embarrassing is if Chicago finds a way to lose to them again in the playoffs.
Lovie Smith, Brian Urlacher, Jay Cutler and the rest of Chicago needs a win... they haven't been to the playoffs since their Super Bowl loss in 2007 when, by the way, they also had to play Seattle in a divisional playoff game to get through to the Super Bowl. Coincidence, or another act of God?
New York Jets - New England Patriots
New England is like the better looking, smarter, and funnier older sibling... you do not like them and guess what? They don't care, because they are happy being awesome with or without you on board. Well, just so you know Patriots fans... the fat guy (Rex Ryan, coach) and his team are coming to play, and they want to mess up Tom Brady's hair and get a little dirty.
Tom Brady is a fantastic quarterback. Mark Sanchez is good... until he is bad, and then it's really, really bad. So which Mark Sanchez will show up in New England? Tom Brady is hoping it's the bad one.
