Let's go Rams!
If they win tomorrow, I predict they'll play the Giants  (I think the Packers will lose tomorrow).

Oh gawd, I can say with 98% confidence the Giants have no chance. And for once, I'm glad. This season has sucked any and all joy out of it  I really just want it to end after tomorrow and they can start fixing some problems. EDIT: Oh! You mentioned the pro bowl Pat, man I don't even care a lick. Pointless game and even more pointless lists. Of course deserving players make it every year, but so many of these picks are just stupid and of course based on name/popularity. For example: O'Hara made the pro bowl this year. Damn good center, but he payed 6 games this year!! Just ridiculous. Also, maybe his age is finally showing, especially coming back from injury. God, we need some new O-linemen

Rams all the way.
At least all the way to a first round loss.

Hell yeah! Rams/Seahawks in primetime! This will be the highest rated game ever.
As a Rams fan I am bit excited....kinda lol Al least they can go 8-8. If Seattle wins they will make the playoffs 7-9!
I am happy to see some success with the Rams. Hope they keep it up and add more pieces next year. May be on their way to a good team. And I have to say, as much I wanted St Louis to take Suh...Bradford really has had one helluva rookie year. Though, Suh also had a beast of a year.

OK Giants. End the season on a good note. Last time they played the Skins they ran all over em. 100 yards on 8 carries for Jacobs.
Thus far they've been leveling the defense, I hope they keep it up and don't stop running. Just please, don't stop lol
Edit: God damn it. ANOTHER pass to the receivers hands that got tipped and picked. Poor decisions and throws aside, these 25 picks are not all Eli's I still maintain.

The Raiders just crushed the Chiefs today without their best player on offense and defense in Arrowhead with not much to play for. What does that say about the Chiefs? 
The Raider 8-8 break 7 years of losing seasons. Next year looks pretty bright.

Well, will be easy to make my first round playoff picks this year (unless the Packers lose). Going all wild-card teams in the first round. If the Giants make it I'll have to think harder.

Indeed, Raiders had a pretty decent year. If they can keep it up and fill some holes next season may be a good one! But the exact can be said of the chiefs.... Giants barely eeked out a win over the Redskins  although they have been playing surprisingly better as of late, at least. Thank god the season is over. Start working on next season now! Need some help at O-line, LB and punter. Also either a re-evaluation of their passing offense, or a TON of work to get Eli and the wideouts on track. I don't care, not all these pics can be put solely on Eli's shoulders and while something needs to be fixed....Eli had the best completion % and most TD's of his career, over 4,000 yards and with a higher yard per pass attempt then Peyton. This was all with a great run game for most of the year as well. I'll take it. I'm torn. Want the Rams to win, but the possibility of a 7-9 playoff team just fills me with joy (in a twisted way of course)

Oh, I hope I'm wrong. But I haven't exactly been bowled over with the Eagles play as of late.

Me either. Our pass defense and pass rush are worse when we first met them. Their passing attack is more in rhythm than when we first met them. Our offensive line hasn't played any better.
They just match up very well against us. It's scary.
That said my dad would beat me pretty good if he heard I picked against the Eagles. So go birds.

Hottest team in the NFL to end the season: Detroit Lions.  They ended the season 6 - 10, but were arguably 4 plays away from being 10 and 6, and possibly 6 plays away from being 12 and 4. They had a lot of 1 score losses this year, which could have been wins if only one play had gone differently; one tackle made; one catch called a catch; one tackle by the hair not called a horse collar tackle. Woulda coulda shoulda if if if, but for the first time in years there is actually a glimmer of hope for the Motor City Kitties.

I have a lot of faith in that team. I picked them to win about 10 of their games this year. They kept letting me down just barely. If Stafford can stay healthy and they can put together a good draft, they will be a team to be reckoned with next season. Kinda sucks about their division for them.

Here's one  for the Seahawks making the playoffs. I should give them another for being the worst team to ever get there (at least record-wise), but will restrain myself.
|
Can you tell me where we're headin'?
Lincoln County Road or Armageddon.
