NFL Week 17 Predictions

[Toro]

Okay, its the final weekend of the NFL, with playoff spots on the line.

What are your predictions for the games that matter? Mine are

New England over Buffalo
Minnesota over NY Giants
Carolina over New Orleans
Tampa over Oakland
Houston over Chicago
Baltimore over Jacksonville
NY Jets over Miami
Philadelphia over Dallas
San Diego over Denver

Thus, the seeds would like like this

NFC

1. NY Giants
2. Carolina
3. Minnesota
4. Arizona
5. Atlanta
6. Tampa Bay

AFC
1. Tennessee
2. Pittsburgh
3. New England
4. San Diego
5. Indianapolis
6. Baltimore

I still can't get over Atlanta and Arizona. I'll be a huge Arizona fan if the Eagles don't get in.

 

[JimH52]

I like Arizona also but I don't see them going far in the playoffs. Here are my predictions for week 17:

New England over Buffalo
Minnesota over NY Giants
Carolina over New Orleans
Tampa over Oakland
Chicago over Houston
Baltimore over Jacksonville
Miami over NY Jets
Philadelphia over Dallas
San Diego over Denver

A little different than yours. I see Miami and Baltimore making the playoffs. NE sits at home this year and the Cowboys continue their December funk. Bum's son gets fired.

Flyyyyyy Eagles Flyyyyyyy! On the road to victoryyyyyyyyy!

E A G L E S EAGLES!!!

 

[JimH52]

A little different than yours. I see Miami and Baltimore making the playoffs. NE sits at home this year and the Cowboys continue their December funk. Bum's son gets fired.

Congrats to the Eagles! The Cowboys CHOKED like big dogs! If Jones does not fire Phillips, it will be worse next year. Caretakers seldom win.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP)—Peyton Manning, Marvin Harrison and Dallas Clark wasted no time in hitting milestones Sunday against Tennessee.

Manning extended his own NFL record for 4,000-yard passing seasons to nine, while Harrison moved into second on the NFL’s career receptions list and Clark broke the franchise’s long-standing single-season record for yards receiving by a tight end.

And they needed only about 23 minutes to complete the trifecta.


Colts' Manning, Harrison, Clark all hit milestones - NFL - Yahoo! Sports

Yeah, way to go Eagles! I'm sure Paulie is soooooooooooo Happy!

Also, I think Miami's story is GREAT! From 1-15 to winning their division!



Who is watching Sunday Night Football tonight?

Whoever wins is who the Colts play next week, it should be a great game tonight!

 

[JimH52]

My week was made when the Patriots and the Cowboys sit at home and watch the playoffs. EXCELLENT!

Beware of the Ravens. They have a huge defense and a rookie QB, on the order of Big Ben, who is coming on. I am not a Ravens fan but it is a fact. My picks for the Super Bowl:

Giants and Colts

The brothers go head to head (incredible TV ratings) and Peyton comes out the winner.

Everything you said makes PERFECT SENSE JimH52~ rep is coming your way, along with a COLTS Super Bowl Victory!

 

[DavidS]

Brother vs. Brother. Super Bowl XLI champions vs. Super Bowl XLII champions.

It sounds like a great Super Bowl, except I don't think the Colts are going to make it. I think the Titans will.

Echo, are you sure you meant to Green rep me over this?

Yes dear..I have never neg repped anyone! My boooooooooooooo was for your comment tho, all in good fun. I'm having fun teasing the PATS fans here because THEY AREN'T EVEN IN THE PLAYOFFS!

Now THAT is something to tease the PATS fans over!!! They fuckin' deserve it after all of these years of domination in the playoffs, in the Superbowl... I *hate*, with a passion, any Boston team.

I've got no gripe against the Colts. I think Manning is awesome and I will always hold a special place in my heart for Tony Dungy, as he did wonderful things with the Bucs in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

I think it's time to get rid of Gruden. We got lucky one year and ever since then, the Bucs have been a near disaster. The question is: Who else is out there that could coach the Bucs?

 

[Toro]

The Broncos are just awful on defense.

Something is seriously wrong in Tampa.

I think the Chargers beat the Colts next weekend.

 

[Xenophon]

How bout them Cowboys?

 

[RetiredGySgt]

Giants lose last game of the Season. They are in trouble. Carolina all the way.
