They are both very hot teams.  I think Cincy Arizona and Phily all bounce back.  I think Cincy and Zona win, but Phily covers and possibly wins just my thing.  I do think the Philly and Baltimore games are the hardest at this point.  Again though I'm not probably going to make any kind of plays until tomorrow at the earliest and that might just be one or two.

Good feedback whodey   And I agree, it comes down to one thing...if the bengals stop the run it will a double digit win as Sanchez isn't winning this game for them.  And when you look at Cin. body of work, they are capable of stopping the run.  GL whodey and thanks for your input.

Philadelphia only ever made it to the red zone 1 time the whole game. Mcnabb fucked up on the snap and turned it over but that's what he does in big games, he's a choker. Dallas had a tipped ball picked off by Philly inside the Eagles 5 so the Eagles fumble and that are pretty much a wash.

McNabb has played in a few super bowls.

Just one. And he was carried there by a great defense, something he doesn't have this year. The Philly D has been torched against good offenses. In that SB too McNabb literally choked, and then he literally gagged, and then he literally threw up all over himself.

I thought it was 2...I'm an idiot.  He did puke on himself though.  That was funny.  Plus he had team obliterator.  Defense was good Jim Johnson days RIP.

On Pinnacle the Jets are +4200 to win the Super Bowl. The Bengals are +3000.

Just can't buy in to the Ariz play this week as to many factors are playing against them including the initial declaration that Anquan Boldin will more than likely miss this game with knee and ankle injuries. Green Bay ran the ball early and often with good success then realized Arizona D was taking the week off so they started to throw it around to put the game away with the help of course from Matt Leinart's multiple turnovers.My point being that San Fran [twice] Carolina and Tennessee gave everyone the formula to beat this defense and that is to run right at them until they start cheating towards the line and then throw over the top of their linebackers.To top it off if Kurt warner is pressured and has another one of his 3,4 or 5 interception games or gets hurt, this game will be over quicker than hall sex with your wife.And we must give the conspiracy theorists their due noting that the NFL would love nothing more than a Green Bay/Minny rematch part III.

dont like any of the selected teams.

Since 1998 there has been 24 teams coming into the playoffs after their last regular season game where that team looked terrible.

These terrible teams are only 7-17 ats.

BENGALS,  EAGLES, CARDINALS fit the bill. All lose as will the Baltimore Ratbirds.

Good point Yavapai! I didn't know that!

The easy thing here is to play Cincy and Az w/ such a small line because they sat players, played horrible, and are playing at home this weekend. My question is why isn't the line bigger?  Don't you get 3 pts for being the home team?

Cincy's offense has sucked all year except for the running game in the first part of the year. Palmer is washed up and his 1-11 outing this past weekend has been his norm this year as well as 100-200 yds passing per game.  This isn't going to get it done against the Jets. The Jets know who didn't play for Cincy and I don't think it matters this weekend as they are still great on defense and can run the ball. Sanchez sucks as well but I have a feeling Ryan won't hesitate to pull Sanchez and give way to Clemens if the game is winnable and Sanchez is struggling. Clemens is a decent QB w/ experience.

Az had a great run last year but that was last year...GB will do to them what they did to Carolina last year.  What Warner is going to show up? The one who throws for 300 and 3 TD's or the turnover machine. Rodgers will be effective and the GB D should play well enough to keep it within 2.5 or win outright.

i get what you're saying...but this is at cincinnati and im pretty sure palmers played under these conditions before. isn't it they will need to run to open up the pass?? i think cincy's run offense will be better now that benson is fresh and i wouldn't put my money on sanchez if cincy makes him beat him thru the air. cuz that my friend is an advantage for cincy. leon hall and jonathon joseph r playing well this year and i doubt braylon edwards can do much especially when sanchez is not that accurate of a passer under pressure. maybe cotchery will have a big play or two. just giving insight, i mite even take the jets myself if the line moves more in their favor.
