Wildcard Week 1

Here it is... the final stretch of the 2005-06 season. I wish it could be Wildcard Weekend for the rest of my life. But with that said.. on with the picks.

Washington Redskins at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The last game the Redskins played I think hurt them (literally) more than it helped them. They needed a win and in but several key defensive players got injured which will the Bucs will definitely exlpoit. I think Tampa wins a close one.

My Pick - Bucs

Jacksonville Jaguars at New England Patriots
I think Jacksonville's mistake is making Leftwhich as this weeks starter. He's not 100% but Garrard is the guy who led a team to five wins in the last six games for the Jags. Patriots are on their superbowl run for the third straight year and it will continue this week.

My Pick - Patriots

Carolina Panthers at New York Giants
Tiki for MVP. He'll, once again, put the team on his shoulders and run to victory.

My Pick - Giants

Pittsburgh Steelers at Cincinnati Bengals
I can't wait for this game. Palmer will look to speed up the tempo and the Steelers will be looking to slow it down. Who wins that chess match will win the game.

My Pick - Bengals
