NFL NFC Championship Game Packers At Seahawks Preview

It's been a long time since opening weekend of the season where the Green Bay Packers lost to the defending Super Bowl Champions the Seattle Seahawks.

The weather in Seattle is going to be very wet and with Packer quarterbackAaron Rogers still nursing a calf injury his mobility is questionable, many are saying that due to his injury and the wet conditions it will be very difficult for Rogers to throw the ball, whereas the Seahawks have been practicing all week in the wet conditions preparing for the game.

The Packers have had a hard time on defense lately. They have been moving a number of players around trying to improve their run defense and with Seattle running back Marshawn Lynch running the ball for the Seahawks the Packer will need all the help they can get.

It is for these reason that I feel the Seattle Seahawks will be returning to the Super bowl this year. They will defeat the Green Bay Packers 27 - 17 in wet and rainy Seattle.

See what CBS Sports Pete Prisco and Pat Kirwan have to say in their preview of the NFC Conference Championship between the Green Bay Packers and Seattle Seahawks.



An interesting sidebar Seattle quarterback Russell Wilson has never, in his short NFL career, been beaten by a quarterback that has won the Super Bowl. 

NFL AFC Championship Game Colts At Patriots Preview

Last week I posted previews of the NFL divisional playoff games and gave my thoughts on which teams would win. I came out a soft 3-1 with my picks. I say soft because if you want to be technical I was really 2-2, picking the Cowboys over the Packers in my head, but hoping beyond hope that the Packers would win, which they did.

The other game that I lost last week was the Indianapolis Colts against the Denver Broncos. I really thought that the Broncos would run and throw up and down the field on the Colts defense, unfortunately that wasn't the case. Thanks in part to the Colts defense, which played very well, and a  previously undisclosed injury to Denver quarterback Peyton Manning, that seemed to limit his mobility and pass accuracy.  Taking nothing away from the Colts' Andrew Luck, who had just a spectacular game.

In today's AFC Championship game sees the New England Patriots taking on the Colts in Foxboro. It's supposed to be cold and rainy up there today which will give Tom Brady and the Patriots a distinct advantage. However, the Patriots have had the Colts and Luck's number for a rather long time now. The Patriots haven't lost to the Colts during the Andrew Luck era.   playoff games. Today will be no different, the Patriots just don't lose home.

My pick? The Patriots over the Colts 28 - 23

Colts at Broncos AFC Divisional Playoff

In opinion, this last game of the weekend between the Indianapolis Colts and the Denver Broncos will be the least competitive of the four NFL playoff games this weekend. The Colts have no business being on the field. Their defense sucks and the only reason why they are in the playoffs is due to the play of their quarterback Andrew Luck.

Luck is a carbon copy of the guy he replaced as the Colts quarterback, Denver quarterback Peyton Manning.  Luck has great regular season and early playoff numbers but falls short because his team around him becomes exposed by superior teams this time of year, much like the Colt teams Manning lead for most of his NFL career.

The Broncos will be the superior team on the field in Denver later today. The only advantage the Colts hold over Manning and the Broncos will be the placekicking of future NFL Hall of Famer, Adam Venatieri . This game could get out of hand early but I think Andrew Luck will do his best to make it seem competitive but in reality it will be anything but. Broncos 38 Colts 23

Super Bowl XLIII Preview and Prediction

The following video from ESPN is a short preview of of Super Bowl XLIII, which as just about every knows by now features the Pittsburgh Steelers vs. the Arizona Cardinals.

The video does not provide in depth analysis of the game itself but it does give you an idea of what these 2 teams are all about.



If anyone is truly interested in my pick for the game, I feel sorry for you. I really don't have much of a track record picking winners. However be that as it may, I am going against the general consensus and picking the Cardinals.

Why the Cardinals, no real rhyme or reason. I just have a feeling that this is a Cinderella team and Kurt Warner is this years Prince Charming.

The score:
Cardinals 27  Steelers 20
