NFC/AFC Championship Predictions
Posted by Vegas Martin in NFL Picks on January 18th, 2009 | 1 CommentIt’s better late than never.
PHILADELPHIA EAGLES -3.5 @ ARIZONA CARDINALS
I’m an Eagles fan, so yes, I’m 100% confident that my team will beat the Cardinals and move on to the Super Bowl. McNabb is playing at the highest level he has played in years. Their defense is absolutely ridiculous. We will just have to double team Larry Fitzgerald all game. Don’t count on the Cardinals running game having any success against the tough Eagles run D. Eagles win, 27-20.
BALTIMORE RAVENS @ PITTSBURGH STEELERS-6
The #1 defense vs. the #2 defense. Expect this one to be a tight defensive battle like the Ravens/Titans game. I said before the playoffs that I think the Ravens will be the team to go onto the Super Bowl. Their defense is better than Pittsburghs by a hair. I like the prospect of Flacco going deep to Mark Clayton at some point in this game. I also like the under 34. This shouldn’t go over a 20-14 game. Pittsburgh may move the ball well, but I see them often having to settle for field goals. If the Steelers do win this game, it should be by 3-6 points. I like the Ravens +6 and think they will win outright. Ravens win, 13-9.

And I told you I was an Eagles fan, I’m obviously going to pick them. Also keep in mind the Ravens were in the money trailing 16-14, but a pick 6 got the Steelers to cover.
