Lets see em!
Here are mine.
Ravens over Colts (24 - 21) I think the Ravens match up well against the Colts and they played a great game against them in week 11. If the defense gets pressure on Manning they will force turnovers like they did in that week 11 game. Ray Rice and McGahee are go much for the Colts. Ravens win on a Cudniff field goal as time expires.
Chargers over Jets (28 - 13) The Jets match up well with the Chargers with Revis taking out vincent jackson a double team may be placed on Antonio Gates. I think the experienced and veteran Chargers can take out the Jets in this Divisonal game.
Saints over Cards (42 - 35)...Kurt Warner and company passed all over the packers, but Aaron rodgers did the same to the Cards...Drew Brees will have no problem.
Vikings over Cowboys (28 - 17) Vikings are 8 - 0 at home...Cowboys are hot and can definitely bring it, but baber, jones, and choice will not tear throught he vikings D...I finally think AP will shine again, for the first time since the Clevland Browns game.

for the afc im taking running and defense over high powered offense.
ravens over colts- the colts mailed it in. the starters havent played a whole game in almost a month. ravens will control time of possesion. ray rice will kill it like he did against the pats(even if the colts d is much better than the pats) ray lewis and company are gonna give the mvp hell.
jets over chargers- this could really go either way in my book. im going with the jets though.(my team). the chargers d sucks against the run and the jets have the #1 run game. i can almost garentee the jets will utilize the wildcat similar to how they did in the first game against cincy. i know they have shit in the bag nobody has seen and why not pull it out on sunday. brad smith will see a lot of time. game is gonna be physical. SD has big,physical recievers, the jets have a physical defense. i think the jets can dominate time of possession. san diego is kinda like philly. they have been in the playoffs a lot recently. but they have never had too much success.
nfc
saints over cardinals- i just cant see the cardinals goin into NOLA and gettin it done. they barely slipped by the packers and i just dont see how warner can go on the road to the superdome and get it done 2 weeks in a row. i dont think the cardinals will put up 50+ points on the saints as they did the packers. also i think with the saints coming off a rough patch at the end of the season they have something to prove.
cowboys over vikings- this game is hard to pick for me. i really dont know honestly. im going with the cowboys because they are hot. they played last week the vikings didnt. i really cant stand either team. i cant believe im saying it but tony romo has looked good and confident the last month. its gonna be a real tough game but i just think the cowboys are gonna win. kinda a gut pick.
