Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler NFL Playoffs

I just don't think the skins are that good. They had to win Sunday and had trouble with the Eagles until the 4th quarter when the Eagles decided to start turning the ball over, and the Eagles had nothing to play for. I don't think the Skins or Tampa are that good...certainly the worst matchup of the four games. I think I'll go back to my original picks and have the Bears beating Tampa though. I don't believe in the Bears, but the more I think about it I don't believe in Tampa either. Carolina vs. Seattle should be the conference championship game, but it likely won't play out that way.

Seattle will take it all. Im not a fan of them but they have played flawless and have been under the radar all year.

As much as I dislike the Patriots (even tho I like their sportsmanship and teamwork) we shouldn't be so quick to count them out. For the past 4-5 years every time I think the Pats are done for they find a way to win. Heck, even last year they played Indy in the AFC championship and flat out won (and this is when Peyton threw for the most TD's in a season). Somehow the Pats always find a way to win and they are on a real hot streak as of late. Did you guys know that Tom Brady threw the most passing yards of any quarterback this season?

And just remember Indy did lose 2 games earlier so this will be an interesting playoffs. I'm not so hot on Indy and Cincy right now. But I still think the AFC will win this year, sorry but I don't think Seattle can beat Indy or the Pats in the big show.

The patriots have looked extremely good over the past several weeks. They hare getting all there defensive starters back, and playing to a high level. I think they will be a force to be a reckoned with in the playoffs.

I agree, never count them out.

The Skins foudn a way this weekend to pull out a victory. Yes, with a pitiful showing no offense, no doubt. In fact, the worst in league history.... But that is a testament to their defense. They're on a huge winning streak. Can they keep it going? Only time (and the Seahawks) will tell.

Either way, you take the wins when you can get 'em, especially when it takes you one step closer to the prize.

Go Skins, baby

Sorry, but it will end for the Skins this weekend. I haven't seen the spread, but I would expect it to be double digits and I would expect Seattle to cover as well.

Denver vs. NE and Bears vs. Panthers should both be decent games.

last I heard, as of this morning Seahawks by 9. But I might be a closer game if the Skins offense gets off their dead a$$es and produces.

The Panthers will be crushed. GO BEARS!

I had a rough weekend watching these playoffs. My Giants didn't even show up to the game! I also root for the Bengals (lived there for six years), and they lost as well. I wonder what the outcome would have been if Carson Palmer wasn't knocked out after the second play (ouch!).

I think the Bears-Carolina game will be a close. I would feel better about the Bear's chances if they had a better offense. This will be one low scoring game.

Since Rex Grossman...I think the Bears Offence has gotten a jump-start.
