Divisional Round Weekend '10

There was something about the Chargers that was missing -- can't quite put my finger on it. They were good, but not great. If they had somehow made it past the Jets, I don't think they could compete with the Colts, Vikings or Saints.

I think the Chargers suffer from having so many superstars on one team, but no real leaders. When they start to fall apart it seems like they look for the other Pro-Bowler to make the big play.

It looks like the buy week hurt them more than it helped too.

Joseph Addi 11-23- 2.1ypc; a team total of only 42 net yds rushing with only 3 1st downs. The Jets proved they can get the job done on the road and could prove a formidable foe with their defense.

I don't think the Jets will be a stretch, so I like you will take the Saints & the Jets. The Saints are difficult to beat at "home in the dome"

The Colts had beat the Jets in the regular season, they know how to do it, and I am sure they will do it again. I think the Vikings will be able to beat the Saints, but I prefer that the Saints make it to the SB.

Well I guess that knocks my predictions right out he box. You think maybe I need to rethink my position?

Ruhskins · 01-17-2010, 11:51 PM

I guess the question for next week is...is the Jets combo of Jones/Greene at RB better than the Baltimore combo of Rice/McGahee? I thought the Ravens would run all over the Colts, but they didn't. And the Colts D did a good job in pressuring Flacco...though I suspect the Jets line may be better than the Ravens. It is going to be an interesting game.

Huh? Jets beat the Colts week 16. However Peyton Manning didn't play the second half. My guess is the Colts beat them this time around. The Jets have a phenomenal defense, but I just don't see Peyton allowing the Colts to lose this game.

Yeah, those Roids will do it every time. When I had origionall thought of him as a prospective Redskin I realized that's a problem we definately do not need even if he hadn't been injured.

Original, sorry, that's the second time that I saw you spell it that way.

I mean that the colts were winning, when Manning was pulled out, and the colts lost. Do you think they will pull Manning with a 2pt lead next week?

Nah, I just like reading what I type.

All I want is to see is good games next week.

I think: Colts vs. Vikes
The Colts are too good for the Jets, regardless of their first game, and the Vikes are more balanced than Saints.

I will be rooting for: Saints vs. Jets
I've rooted as much as I can for Favre (one game) and am surrounded by Saints fan friends whom I do not wish to anger. Jets just to back the underdog, as I am wont to do.

SFREDSKIN · 01-18-2010, 12:12 AM

Saints at home are tough and their receivers will not be stopped by the Vikes DB's, Saints D will spank Favre and Co. Favre will retire for the 20th time. I pick the Jets because I think they are more of a complete team than the Colts and Rex Ryan is my X-factor who knows how to motivate his team.

Funny the Colts rested and let the Jets in the playoffs, now if the Jets can pull the upset the Colts will be ready to kick their HC in the nads
