New York Giants at Dallas Cowboys
Eddie - Eli is playing way above his normal style and I just question how long this can go on. The Giants have a tough matchup and I just don't think they have enough offense to keep up with the Boys.
Fred - Enough with all this Giants hype. Jacobs is a monster and someone I’m targeting in fantasy next year. Eli is waaaaaaay overdue for a bad game. This is it! A fresh Cowboys team beats an over-achieving Giants team.
Seattle Seahawks at Green Bay Packers
Eddie - I don't like that Seattle is lacking a running game which is something they'll need to defeat the Pack. Favre and his young supporting cast are playing well together and their journey doesn't stop here.
Fred – Guys like Chris Berman are picking Seahawks to upset the Packers. Are you kidding me? How is it that people aren’t seeing the Packers as the best team in the NFC. I’ve been saying this for the last 8 weeks! Packers crush the Seahawks
Jacksonville Jaguars at New England Patriots
Eddie - Fred and I were talking about this matchup earlier this week and before the wild card matchups I was convinced the Jags could give the Pats a run for their money. I'm not so sure about that anymore. Garrard is a managing QB. He won't win you the game - he'll manage the game. Well - the Patriots are going to force him to win it and he just can't do that. Garrard.. 2 I.N.T..... Pats move on to the next round
Fred – With a 13-point spread in favor of a 16-0 team, this pick is easy, right? First off, if the Jags lose, it won’t be by 13 or more points. So, that’s easy money to be had. I’m going with my gut on this pick. This game will be one we talk about for years as the Jags barely beat the undefeated Patriots. Upset pick #1.
San Diego Chargers at Indianapolis Colts
Eddie - San Diego will be missing a key offensive player where the Colts gain one back. This should be an easy win for Peyton and Co.
Fred - Having had the Chargers defense in fantasy, I know how good they are. But, a refreshed Colts team with Marvin back means a ton of points. Chargers offense is too jeckyl and hype throughout the game. Colts put up 35+ points while the Chargers are in the low 20s.
