Alright - so far my record is a stellar 7-1, 8-1 if you include the BCS Championship. That could all change this weekend.
Let’s start with the darling NFC game.

You’ve got Soldier Field, special teams, and defense for the Bears.
You’ve got MOJO, Reggie Bush/Deuce McAlister, Drew Brees, Rex Grossman, and Sean Payton for the Saints.
Who Dat!!! New Orleans wins this game. Just listen to everyone pick the Bears, pick the weather, praise their defense then watch the game. The Saints have moved the ball and scored on everyone this year…except Carolina. Which is bizarre when you stop and think about it.
The AFC Championship:

Now that Charger-Gate is over, let’s talk football. Patriots bring their swagger and Tom Brady into the RCA Dome. But the truth of the matter is that their two playoff opponents didn’t exactly show up to play. The J E T S Jets, Jets, Jets are a great team to root for but they were severely outgunned and outmanned for that matchup. The Chargers Schottenheimered.
The Colts won ugly against Kansas City and then won ugly against Baltimore. Won ugly - that’s key because the Colts have never had to win ugly. It’s usually a blowout - going one way or the other. You could say “Hey, the Patriots have won ugly!” and I’d just say - they always win ugly. I don’t understand how that team continues to win.
But…I’m taking the Colts. Why? It’s on the TURF, outside of the elements, the Patriots have to travel AGAIN, Dungy has placed his foot up the proverbial rear-end of the defense and they are showing up.
Which means my Super Bowl would have the Saints and the Colts. Not exactly made for TV but this isn’t the NBA where the playoffs are rigged.
Now watch me go 0-2 this week.

I’m with you on the Colts. But for the same reason you picked them, I’m going with “da Bears”. That team has found a way to overcome Grossman. I’d rather see the Saints win, but I gotta pick Chi-town.

“Now watch me go 0-2 this week.”
Let’s hope not.
“Not exactly made for TV”
If Peyton is in it, its made for TV.
“Won ugly - that’s key because the Colts have never had to win ugly.”
That’s true for the playoffs but they have won several ugly games in the regular season this year and last.
