So last week I went 3-1, and would've actually been closer on my score picks if Sean Payton wouldn't have so uncharacteristically taken a knee at the end of that Lions-Saints game instead of just punching it in (or having Brees toss it in). Here's what I've got for this week's games: 

 New Orleans @ San Fransisco-  This is probably going to be the most entertaining game of the weekend. Two ideaologies of football butting heads with your old-school, defense wins championships going up against your new school, pass happy attack. The 49ers biggest defensive weakness is their secondary... kind of like the Lions. But their front seven is much, much better. I think this keeps the game CLOSER... but doesn't get the job done. I'll take the Saints.

Saints 30- 49ers 24

 Houston @ Baltimore- Really nice win for the Texans last week, their first playoff win in franchise history. T.J. Yates actually didn't look all that bad, but he was nowhere near great either. If the Texans are going to win, he needs to be GREAT. That is not going to happen. As much as I hate them, Ray Lewis in particular, Ravens get the job done.

Ravens 17- Texans 6

 Denver @ New England- This might just be the ugliest playoff game we've seen since... the second half of the Lions-Saints game last week. Tebow got the job done against a hobbled Steelers defense... but the Steelers didn't have an offensive counter-punch quite like Tom Brady. Brady's been here, done that. There is zero chance the Broncos win this ballgame. IF they do, then it's true that not only is God actually on the Bronco's side, but that his priorities are just as FUCKED as ours are! Pats win.

Patriots 38- Broncos 17

 New York @ Green Bay- The game I'm most looking forward to seeing this weekend, Rodgers vs. Manning in the frozen tundra. Their last meeting was one hell of a ballgame to watch, with the Packers barely coming out on top. This one should be pretty good as well, but I think Eli shits the bed with a couple of picks, and that makes the difference. Packers move on.

Packers 34- Giants 24

  There's my picks for the weekend... with any luck I'll be coming to you next week sitting pretty at 7-1! Enjoy the games, Gabbers.
