Washington at Tampa Bay: Buccaneers (I think the skins will win, but if not I'll be the only one with this right, and if the skins win, I won't care. )

Let me get this straight.

If Washington loses, there is pain and you get the pleasure of getting this score correctly, Right?

But if Washington wins, there is pain because you get this score incorrectly and you get pleasure because the team wins, Right?

In other words, there has to be pain involved in order to derive pleasure, Right?

How is that called?

Washington at Tampa Bay
Redskins

Jacksonville at New England
Patsies

Carolina at N.Y. Giants
Giants

Pittsburgh at Cincinnati
Bengals

Actually, there is NO pain if the Skins win. I'll forget I even played this week.

My Winners

Washington
Carolina
Pittsburgh
New England

Redskins
Patriots
Panthers
Steelers

Why not... here is what I posted on another Raider board earlier today:

Washington 17 Tampa Bay 14

Defensive battle with the revenge factor being the difference... plus, Gibbs will have the Skins motivated & prepared a tad more than Gruden.

New England 28 Jacksonville 24

Jacksonville should put up a good fight & make it a game but it's hard to go against NE at home... especially since they have played well down the stretch (gawd, it was hard to type that)

Carolina 31 New York 20

Carolina has the better D & Eli doesn't have the play off experience. IMO, the G-men are the most over rated team in the playoffs.

Pittsburgh 34 Cincinnati 28

Cincinnati will show a lot of heart & put forth a valiant effort but they're playoff virgins & it will show. Although, I do hope they pull out a win here but I think the Steelers will grind out a win with their running attack.

Yesterday, WE ALL were masochists. That was a painful performance by our offense. We suffered until the last play of the game. But we took pleasure from it in the end.

By the way, those that picked the Jags: Not a good idea

Yeah but I hate the Pats.

And Carson Palmer might be done.
Looks like he messed his knee up pretty bad.

Eight posters with perfect records and ten in their trail with a 3 - 1 record! Pretty impressive!

I hear you got eliminated in the FIRST Hogs round in the other thread.

So much for another promise to catch up.

Man I was hoping you would last a little longer for the enjoyment of all.

Well, there is always the traditional Hognostications. We will keep on adding the weekly scores there until the final game at SB XL.

Washington isn't the only 6th seed that's still alive in the playoffs. . .I'll put these picks in the other thread with my point totals when I get the chance.


Washington
Carolina - (experience and confidence. . .the Panthers have more of each)
Indianapolis
Broncos - (Even though I love Bill Belichick, I'm tired of the arrogance from Brady / the rest of hte team, please someone beat the Pats)

The remaining entrants into HB I playoffs were fortunate that Carson Palmer had a freak injury just minutes into the game.

Oh well, here's to FanFromAnnapolis winnin'the whole shabang.

WASHINGTON REDSKINS

Saturday, January 14

Washington
New England (Plummer finally remembers that he, in fact, is not very good a la Willey Coyote having run off the cliff and looking down)

Sunday, January 15

Indianapolis
Chicago

Redskins
Broncos
Steelers
Bears

SkinsJock - still trying to be objective. I just do not like some teams and am trying to not let that affect me.

The first game is easy:

Saturday:
Washington Redskins at Seattle = Redskins

New England at Denver = Denver

Sunday:
Pittsburgh at Indianapolis = Indianapolis

Carolina at Chicago = Chicago

Now I remember - take the best D in the playoffs, end of story.

Thanks. I needed to get this Hognostication in order to ensure victory

OK, well I picked the Bucs and we won, so:

Seattle
Chicago

NE

The toughest pick, the Choker Bowl

Who will choke the worst, Peyton or Cowher?

Since its on the road, I'll go with:

Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh to choke, or Pitt to win?
