Super Bowl XLVI: New York vs New England Picks, Predictions & Odds
Super Bowl XLVI features a rematch from Super XLII, in case you somehow haven’t heard. For the second time in five seasons, the NFL season will wrap up with a match-up headlined by Tom Brady and the New England Patriots against Eli Manning and the New York Giants. Last time, the Giants won out and stopped the Patriots from an undefeated, perfect season. So who has the edge in the rematch, and which team will add another trophy to the mantle? The game might be headlined by Tom Brady vs. Eli Manning, but of course, these two players don’t do anything against one another in the game. The quarterback that plays better, and leads his team better, will likely get a Super Bowl ring. But it’s not really Brady vs. Manning, even though that’s...

The offense certainly didn’t look spectacular, and that has generated a great deal of talk from media members as well as from Ravens players. Quarterback Joe Flacco was criticized by safety Ed Reed, despite...

NFL Playoffs: New York vs Green Bay Predictions, Picks & Odds
The New York Giants head to Green Bay to play the Packers this weekend, and the game has been generating plenty of buzz and hype. That’s as much because of what these teams are capable of this year, as what has happened in the past between these two teams as well. So, do the Giants have another surprising run to the Super Bowl in them, or are the Packers simply too good to overcome? The Giants looked great last weekend, dispatching of the Atlanta Falcons at home by a final score of 24-2. That means the defense put on a shutout, as the only points came via a safety. Atlanta looked overmatched, and the Giants pass rush was exceptional, as was their running game. The performance immediately called to mind the Super Bowl champions from a few seasons...

NFL Divisional Playoffs: Houston vs Baltimore Picks, Predictions & Odds
The NFL divisional playoff game garnering the least attention this year is between the Houston Texans and the Baltimore Ravens. The Texans will be visiting the Ravens in Baltimore, and they’ll be the underdogs to try to emerge with a victory. For Baltimore, it’s their first shot in a very long time to have a playoff game at home, so they’ll be cherishing that opportunity and looking to capitalize on their home field advantage. The Ravens are used to being the road warriors in the postseason. Joe Flacco and coach John Harbaugh have not gotten to play at home in the playoffs yet, ever, before this game. They’ve had good success on the road too in past playoff appearances, but it’s simply much harder to get the job done. But...

New Orleans vs San Francisco Predictions, Picks & Odds
The New Orleans Saints will head on the road to face the San Francisco 49ers in an NFC divisional round match-up Saturday afternoon. This game is a classic struggle between an offensive juggernaut and a stout defensive squad. It’s said that defense wins championships, but will the 49ers be able to shut down the Saints and continue advancing? Or will the Saints continue looking like they’ll be Super for the second time in three seasons? Drew Brees and the Saints have had a fantastic season. Brees put up otherworldly numbers, broke Dan Marino’s long standing record for yards in a season – and crushed it, taking it out by about 400 yards. He’s amazingly accurate, and he has a huge collection of targets to work with, from tight...

The game with the widest point spread this weekend might be the one that garners the most attention.

Nobody can get enough of Tebow and the Broncos and their whole magical run this season, and that’s true now more than ever thanks to last week’s win. The Pittsburgh Steelers were heavy road favorites to take care of business against Denver. Nobody really gave the Broncos a chance. However, they controlled the game and had a huge lead, although they allowed the Steelers to come back and tie it up, forcing overtime. In the overtime session, we all know what happened by now. Tebow threw a perfect...
