Tennessee - I think the Titans defence should be able to force some Baltimore turnovers. Also the way the Steelers played Baltimore last week the Ravens could be a little flat. So the Titans on this one.

Carolina - Carolina should prove to strong for Dallas but with Pacells coaching anything is possible.

Green Bay - I think this will be a close game with Holmgren knowing Brett Favre so well but the Packers have lost just once at home in the Playoffs and I think they will start a new winning streak. Seahawks probably just happy to have made the playoffs as well.

Indianapolis - Peyton Manning is too good a player to continue his losing streak in the playoffs and Dungy too good a defensive coach to allow the Broncos to run over the top of the colts again

Tennessee if McNair is fit, Baltimore if he isnt - that simple.


Carolina, but it will be close. Dallas are one of those teams who can just somehow keep getting points, and if Carolina continue their trend of not scoring in the red zone it could be very interesting - but Carolina should be good enough

Seattle, I just have a feeling about this game. Something tells me either Koren Robinson or Bobby Engram is going to have a massive day.

Indy, as ive said before, if Indy can get their defence in line they could go all the way, and as ive also said before - i dont think much of Denver apart from Clinton Portis

Paullyboy, mate, what more do you need? Plummer went into Indy and had a blinder apart from his first pass. He threw a beautiful ball to Lelie for a long gain and apart from Portis, we have a host of attacking weapons.

I find it hard to believe the Colts can turn around their defensive woes in the space of a week. Dungy knows Shanahan will pund the ball all day and it's a dare to see if Dungy can stop him. Personally, I don't think they can. I think the Patriots are the only defence that can stop Denver. If Denver controls possession and the clock, they will win and win well.
