Four teams left, what are your predictions and scores?

[Jmax]

O.K. I did not do so well on the last one. Out of the four winners I only got one right. The good thing about this one is my chances are better with only having to pick two winners. emoLaugh

*Philadelphia Eagles vrs. Arizona Cardinals
-I do not think that McNabb will let this one slip through his hands this time. They have been here before and came up short. They have something to prove to themselves and their fans. They are healthy and ready for this game.
-Warner is a veterian of the game. The Cards have not won a title since 1947. They are more beat up then the Eagles and I think will make a heck of an effort.Their biggest chance is the arm of Warner and their many weapons in the receiving ranks. They may pull it out in the air.

I believe the Eagles will come out on top. Eagles 31- Cards 21.

*Pittsburgh Steelers vrs Baltimore Ravens
-The Steelers have the edge on this one I think. Their offense is at it's peak and their defense is very strong and healthy. I think they will wear the Ravens out.
-In contrast to this the Ravens are worn out. Their Rookie quarterback Flacco is going to have a hard time getting the ball out of his hands without a sack or two as well as throwing interceptions against the Steelers secondary. The Ravens are going to have a hard time not turning the ball over.

I think the Steelers will win this one, Steelers 28- Ravens 17.

I know I am not the only football junkie on here what do you guys think? emoScratch

Well to be short and sweet, I like Philly and Baltimore. Arizona is banged up and have played over their heads all year. The win vs Carolina last week was impressive, but I just dont see them getting past Philly. They are on a roll right now, and McNabb is no stranger to big games. I say Philly 31 - Arizona 17

As for Baltimore and Pitt, I really believe that Pitt is the better team in this matchup, but the Ravens have quietly put together a heck of a year. Flacco has flown under the radar as a rookie and has played some great ball. I think the Ravens will upset Pitt for 1 reason. Pitt has beat Baltimore twice this year already. It's tough enough to beat a good team twice in one year, but 3 times? That will just be tough. Playing in the same division means that these two teams know each others game. If Flacco can keep from making serious rookie mistakes, I think the Baltimore defense wins this game. BAL 13 - PIT 7

Jim, with your recent tract record, I think I'll go the other way. emoLaugh

If the game was in Philly, I would go with the Eagles, but Warner throws for 400 yards and the Cards win by 10.
Cardinals fly higher than the Eagles...34-24

The Ravens defense is too much for the Steelers. Look for Big Ben to have a long and painful night.
Ravens advance...13-6

We all know that Branden, come on now....what is your scores? Don't pull a Fat Albert and tell us the score after the game is half over or over. Jmax

Eagles 38, Cardinals 17
Steelers 27, Ravens 6

On the Eagles/Cards game. Both teams are hot right now, but Philly has the better defense and I will go with the defense in this game. Only way that the Cards win is if McNabb has 3 or 4 turnovers and the Cards have none.

Steelers/Ravens game. Steelers best team of the 4 that are still standing. Pittsburg will play conservative early, but the Ravens will finally self-destruct as 18 straight weeks of football gets to them.

On a side note. Every team that I have wanted to win during these playoffs have lost except the Cardinals last game. I didn't necessarily think that the teams that I wanted to win would win, but I was hopeful. A Manning/Manning matchup in the Superbowl would have been nice.

Lots of the announcers thinking the Steelers are going to win this one and the whole Super Bowl. I may have guess on the low side of them beating the Ravens. emoScratch Jmax
