Houston @ Baltimore- An interesting matchup with one of the best rushing teams in the NFL (Houston) versus one of the best teams against the rush (Baltimore). I think that the Texans season will come to an end. I think that the Ravens have a few more weapons at their disposal and are at home.
New York @ Green Bay- New York is playing great football and did almost beat Green Bay in December. For my sanity, I really, really, really hope that the Giants win. I don't normally wish goodwill on New York teams (but they play in Jersey anyways), but against the Packers I make a very large exception. The Giants have a stout rushing defense, but it's the pass you got to worry about with Green Bay. The Packer secondary isn't very good so Eli should have plenty of opportunities to keep this game close. My mind says Green Bay will win, but my heart is Blue all the way!
Denver @ New England- As much as Jesus loves Tim Tebow, God is a Tom Brady fan! All of you know my feelings towards Mr. Tebow so it's no surprise that I'm (gulp) cheering for New England. I might have to fast for days to cleanse myself of the sin of cheering for New England, but it is a necessary evil. New England's secondary unfortunately is theoretically worse than Pittsburgh who Tebow had a field day with. But, Tebow has to go to Foxborough and outduel a healthy Tom Brady.
New Orleans @ San Francisco- The game I have the least interest in. The 49ers are playing their first playoff home game in quite awhile. The Saints probably won't be able to pass all over the 49ers like they did the Lions. The 49ers have to use their ball control offense very wisely if they want a chance to win.
