Now I have a whole week to make idiotic statements to feed BRD's bulletin board... might as well start now...
No problem on the time for the picks, JSPB... not that it matters... I have an appointment with SkinsJock in 13 days... (what the heck, might as well feed RIC's board, too).

Usually, I don't have a deadline.

I think you are copying my strategy this year.
Remember, it has a psychological upsetting purpose ...

TEN wow. 2 incredible defenses... end of the road for the Crows, though
CAR It was a crime against nature for ARI to be in the playoffs in the first place... that gets corrected here.
NYG McNabb doesn't have the weapons to deal with this defense when it has something to play for...
PIT brrrrrrrrrr...
This is a defensive showcase weekend... 160 pts.

Are you copying my picks?
And 164 v. 160 ???
REMEMBER, I am
DOOMED. Do not follow my cursed steps.
You are making it difficult for BRD to play. The -only- upset would come from the Ravens. These playoffs will come down to total points and you -may- have made it easier to play the over by a very slim margin. I know it is only four points that separate us but still ...

What can I say? I don't know enough about how BRD trends on scores. It really sucks losing home field advantage...
perhaps TRO will fell sorry for me, and pick BRD in our game...

Given that trey has submitted his picks for this weekend, I guess I'm away. <drumroll> Without further ado -
BAL @ TEN: Tough, close, extremely physical game. Bottom line is the Titans are one of the few teams in the league NOT intimidated by the Ravens and their vocal double-murdering Mike LB.
TITANS
ARI @ CAR: It's rapidly nearing midnight, when the birds' scarlet coach reverts back to it's pumpkin state. They won't admit it, but by actually winning their home playoff game it's like the Cards have won some kind of junior Super Bowl.
PANTHERS
PHI @ NYG: This one scares me. It truly could go either way. I'm banking on the G-men wanting some payback for already losing one to the Iggles. In their own house.
GIANTS
SD @ PIT: If the circumstances and the Bolts' road to the SB were any different I would say they were arguably the odds-on favorite to win it all. Sadly, of the 4 teams left in the AFC draw, the Steelers are the one they match up the least favorably with. Bye bye, Norv.
STEELERS
Total Points: 155 (Defense! Defense! Defense!)
Championship...
