Yes the season
is over and some of my picks were good like the Vikes,
Titans,
and the Raiders.
Hey 3 out of 4 is not bad. So we have the contenders for the big game
on the 28th.
In the NFC
as I see it the Vikes
vs. the Gints
is a gimme. Look at the offense shame on the giants for even showing
up. Their offense is the old 3 yards and a cloud of dust. That don't
cut it in today's game. The past Super
Bowl winners are high scoring teams. Yes defense is important
and can win you a game or two, but against this offense the Giants
will look like midgets. Even if the weather is bad at Giants
Stadium I can't see this one (even with an average Vikings defense)
getting close take the Vikes minus 3. A stone cold lock.
As far as the
AFC
goes, don't count the Raiders
out of it. This one could go down to the end on a late field goal.
Yes the Ravens
have the best defense in the history of the storied NFL but the Raiders
are home and scrappy. They will fight tooth and nail with them. However,
in the end I see Baltimore winning by 5 in a low scoring game. Remember
the Ravens only have Trent
Dilfer and a shaky passing attack and the Raiders have some good
weapons in ex-Notre
Damer Tim
Brown and trash talker Andre
Rison. Remember those names Sunday watching the game. Well, for
the Super Bowl I'm going with
the Ravens in a big win over the Vikes. Ravens' defense and a feisty
special teams play should carry them high into the Tampa
sun. Final score Ravens 24 Vikes 14. Watch the games with a friend
and don't drink and drive.
