That's right Jim...sweetactionpicks.com is back for the Playoffs to deliver the gambling advice that you crave with the same passion that Burkhardt craves a deep dicking! We are going to share the winning picks as well as the over/under for every game this playoffs.
WILD CARD WEEKEND
Saturday, 4:30pm game
NEW ORLEANS (-10.5) @ SEATTLE; over 45.5
I feel a little silly even calling this one a playoff game. The Seahawks are the most pathetic playoff team in the history of the NFL. They had only one win against a team with a winning record and all 9 of their loses were by FIFTEEN OR MORE points. They just took it like your mom at a donkey show. The defending champs should be licking their chops at the good fortune of opening up on the road against these chumps. With the season ending injuries to RBs Ivory and Thomas I don't see the Saints making a deep run but beating the lowly Seahawks in a blowout should be no problem.
Prediction: SAINTS 41; SEAHAWKS 20
Saturday, 8pm gam
INDIANAPOLIS (-3.5) vs. NEW YORK; under 44.5
The key matchup to focus on in this game is Peyton Manning against Rex Ryan. When it comes to head to head battles, Ryan can't even sniff Peyton's results no matter how nice he smiles and asks, "can I smell them?". Manning's record is 5-1, with the only loss coming in week 16 last year when Manning left the game in the second half with a lead only to have his backup blow it. The only chance that the Jets would have is to run the ball and exploit the vulnerable Colts D by going for the home run play deep to Edwards or Holmes. They need to control the time of possession to keep the ball out of Manning's hands and this will help bleed the clock and supports the under. From a defensive standpoint, Indy will stack the box to stuff a Jets rushing attack that faded down the stretch. The Jets' best chance of scoring will be to work the pass but Sanchez doesn't have the talent to get the ball to his playmakers down the field.
Prediction: COLTS 27; JETS 16
Sunday, 1pm game
BALTIMORE (-2.5) @ KANSAS CITY; under 41.5
While exceeding expectations all season, the Chiefs success has been little more than a smoke and mirrors show. Taking advantage of a weak schedule all season long, the Chiefs only faced 2 games against eventual playoff teams. In these two games they lost by double digits to the Colts and beat up the 7-9 Seahawks. That win is as impressive as Ted's job history. The Ravens, on the other hand, have faced a much tougher schedule and still came out with an impressive 12-4 record. Three of their four loses have come against the top 3 teams in the NFL, proving that they know how to take care of business. They have balance on offense with Rice and a talented trio of veteran receivers.
The Ravens defensive strengths match up very well with the Chiefs offensive strengths. They penetrate into the backfield well with Haloti Ngata living in the backfield which will disrupt the Chiefs normally potent running game. From a passing standpoint the Ravens live by throwing deep to Bowe. Expect a disguised double coverage over the top from Ed Reed who will try to bait Cassel into making bad decisions.
Prediction: RAVENS 24; CHIEFS 10
Sunday, 4:30pm game
PHILADELPHIA (-2.5) vs. GREEN BAY; over 45.5
This game is going to be a dogfight! Two explosive offenses that have the ability to put up huge numbers with quick strike attacks. I really think that this game is a coin flip because of the QB play, but that's why I'm taking the home team giving less than a field goal in a shootout that won't quite reach the Cardinals playoff game from a year ago, but won't be far behind.
Prediction: EAGLES 34; PACKERS 31
Sorry to fans of all the teams that didn't make the playoffs! The Giants choked away the season late, the Chargers couldn't get it going until it was too late, the Cowboys never even got started. And while the Dolphins may have rolled over and given up the season...at least the mascot found found a way to stay busy in his free time!
