Here is what I think as of now:

Wild Card
Chargers over Colts - How can you go against SD now as hot as they are playing
Ravens over Miami - I think their defense will be too much for Miami
Falcons over Cardinals - Cards are pathetic lately
Eagles over Vikings - Vikes are pathetic and their coach makes horrible play calls

Divisional
Ravens over Titans - Titans just don't impress me
SD over Steelers - what a bunch of idiots for playing Big Ben. He might be out of playoffs
Panthers over Falcons - I think Carolina will be too much on the ground
Eagles over Giants - If everyone stays healthy on Philly I don't think they will be stopped

Championship
SD over Ravens
Philly over Carolina

Super Bowl
SD over Philly in a shoot out

what Vikings team are you watching? The team that only lost 1 game to a team with a losing record, and that team happened to be a division rival who was playing very good football at the time. The team that's gone 7-2 since their bye? The team with arguably best player in the league, one of the best o-lines in the league, and one of the best defenses in the league? Minnesota is probably the most underrated team coming into the playoffs

PS - Derell Bevel calls the plays for Minnesota.

Hey genius, Indy has won their last 9 games. There is no hotter team in the league than the Colts.

Here are my picks

Wild Card:
Colts over Chargers - Colts are the hottest and scariest team in the league
Dolphins over Ravens - Ravens thrive on turnovers. Phins don't turn the ball over. It'll be interesting to see which one breaks.
Falcons over Cardinals - Cardinals should be thankful their division is so weak.
Vikings over Eagles - Vikings are 6-2 at home, and gave Atlanta and Indi those wins. They won't hand the game away in the playoffs when it matters most.

Divisional:
Giants over Falcons - Giants are just too much for anyone right now. Getting Brandon Jacobs back fully healthy will be a huge boost.
Vikings over Panthers - They did it once this year. Stop DeAngelo Williams, stop the Panthers.
Colts over Titans - I just can't pick against Peyton Manning when he's on a role like this.
Steelers over Dolphins - The defense will keep it close, and Big Ben always knows how to pull out the victory.

Championships:
Giants over Vikings - The Vikings had the lead against the Giants starters last week, but I don't think they can duplicate that in New York.
Colts over Steelers - This will be a defensive battle, but in the end it will be up to the QB to break the difference. I'll take Manning

Super Bowl:
Colts over Giants - Let the Manning bowl begin. Big brother Peyton is the better of the two, and will pull it out.

I know you aren't about to talk shit. Vikes are pathetic, they only beat the JV squad of the Giants by one point and it was just because they have a great kicker. AP is one of the best players in the league but he can't hold onto the football. Childress does call the plays, you think he walks around with the plays in his hand and talks into the mic just for fun? Not saying he doesn't get input from Bevel. Tarvaris is not a good QB, at times he shows potential but right now I wouldn't want to put a playoff game in his hands. Philly will be all over him. Umm incase you didn't notice, since their bye week the only good team they beat was Arizona which I don't consider good and NYG wasn't playing their starters. I was impressed by the win in Arizona but that was about it. They struggled against Detroit and GB. As far as Indy vs. SD they both have struggled against bad teams but with SD blowing out TB and Denver in the final two games to get in. Indy has won that many in a row and have beat a couple good teams along the way but the way that SD looks like they have gotten their stuff together is why I think they are hot right now. It is my opinion and for you to call me out is pretty stupid and ignorant.
