Yes, the NFL Playoffs are here. As many do, I often think of Jim Mora’s infamous interview when he was coach of the Colts back in 2001:

As I write this, Denver shocked Pittsburgh in OT, 29-23… and now gets the prvilege of facing Brady and the Patriots in New England next week.
Here are my predictions for next week:
Baltimore 24 Houston 13… Ravens are too tough at home and the Texans will feel the impact of having an inexperienced QB.
Green Bay 35 New York 17… the Giants are riding high, but the Packers are loaded on offense and their defense will receive a huge boost playing in front of the home crowd at Lambeau.
New England 42 Denver 6… Tebow and the Broncos had a nice season, but it ends here… the Pats are loaded on offense and will score at will at home in this one.
New Orleans 27 San Francisco 23… I’m waffling on this one… can see it go either way, but I think Brees will find a way to take advantage of the weak link in the 49ers defense, their secondary.
