NFL Divisional Round: FanHouse's Experts Make Their Picks -- NFL FanHouse
http://at.blogos.us/post/nfl-divisional-round-fanhouses-experts-make-their-picks-nfl-fanhouse-post-1295309882
The divisional round of the NFL playoffs features four regular-season rematches, including heated rivalries in Baltimore-Pittsburgh and Jets-New England.
And our FanHouse NFL experts are back to make their predictions for the postseason's second round. Check them out below:
Lots of blood and guts spilled in this one, but in the end, the Steelers stand tallest. They win it with Roethlisberger winning the QB matchup over Flacco.
All signs point to the Steelers, especially the Ravens' winless streak against Ben Roethlisberger. So, of course, that's why I'm going with the Ravens. What about this NFL season has been predicable?
Ravens can talk all they want. Big Ben plays bigger the bigger the game.
A heavy dose of James Starks will force the Falcons to be honest defensively, allowing Aaron Rodgers to pick a part Atlanta's defense.
Some more Georgia Dome magic for Matt Ryan & Co. James Starks won't surprise a Falcons D that's a lot tougher than Philly's was -- and a lot tougher than people think it is.
It's hard to find fault with much of what the Falcons do. They aren't flashy, but they are effective.
No game-breaking runs by Seattle this time against a Bears defense that tackles a lot better than the Saints.
Whatever surprises the Seahawks may have had in store were used up last week. And that Seattle win at Soldier Field in October helps the home team.
The magic will run out for the Seahawks, who are the most surprising team to have made the final eight.
Memo to Antonio Cromartie: It's not smart to tick off Tom Brady before a big game at New England.
Tom Brady and Bill Belichick let their actions speak for themselves -- with Brady and the offense clicking like they have been, the Jets will be humbled yet again.
The Patriots are just a lot better than the Jets: Darrelle Revis can shut down one wide receiver, but Tom Brady has so many weapons that the Jets' defense won't know what hit it

Antonio Cromartie is no Joe Willie Namath! Maybe the dumbest remarks before a playoff game ever ... I hate the Pats, but there will be a lot of Jet blood on the field before this is over. Rex, you can finally shut up too!My picks: Pats, Bears, Ravens & the Pack.

I'm gonna have to choose the Falcons by a field goal, the Jets by a touchdown, the Ravens also by a field goal and the Seahawks by a single point as time expires. All in all, I think this entire season is nothing but one hell of a twist. Seahawks in the playoffs and the Colts not? Defending Champs beaten by a squad of chumps? I'm gonna go out on a limb and say the Seahawk will be in the Super Bowl.
reply
Chumps??? what are you an arizona fan? We are the NFC West Champions and beat the defending World Champions...CHUMP THAT, they said we wouldn't make it to the superbowl but the seahawks have been there...you have a right to your opinion, but to call the Seahawks Chumps is ignorant at best..
reply
So far so good !!!! I couldn't help but put some money on the Seahawks for today. I can see the Bears and cutler having a bad game....it's just a question of whether it will be this one. :))
reply
You want a professionals opinion: Steelers 21-17, Packers 24-21, Bears 24-14(as much as it pains me to write that) and Patriots 38-10.
