Championship Picks

With the Giants eliminated, today's games are not intriguing to me.

NFC Championship

This week the media is all over the Philadelphia Eagles. Right now, they are the most talked about team. They go into University of Phoenix Stadium as a 3 point favorite. Although they have played well, I think they will run into a buzz saw today. The crowd will be a factor. The Eagles have to score early and make plays to keep the crowd out of the game. I like the Cardinal receivers against the Eagle defensive backs. If Domenik Hixon and Steve Smith can get by Eagle defensive backs, I think Fitzgerald, Boldin, Breaston, and Jerheme Urban will torch the Eagles secondary.

Take the Cards and the points.

Cardinals 30 and Eagles 20

AFC Championship

The Ravens do not belong in this game. Ravens QB Joe Flacco faces the best defensive in the NFL. The Ravens will not be able to run or pass the ball.

The Steelers dominate this game.

The drive for six rings begins today.
