Interesting that Frank Caliendo only had one game to predict (he went with Cardinals) and they gave him less than a minute to do it. And he completly snockered the Fox NFL Sunday panel (who ALL picked the Packers).

As Nelson Muntz would put it: "HAH HAH!"

(And now he gets to predict both games on both days - since Fox has the early game both days)

We get an exciting shootout for the first game of the weekend, followed by 3 blowouts.

The Ravens won't blow the Colts out. They will beat them though.

Trust me, there will be no blowouts this weekend, and possibly a few surprises. Remember, this is my opinion, and I have the right to change it in order to make myself look good.

Ehhh, I gotta go with the Cowboys.

Cowboys are gonna get a rude awakening when they have to play a decent team outside the NFC East.

Well, they were the first team to beat the Saints this year.

I can't see them losing to the Vikings. And Favre has never played well against them.

Saints started coasting at Week 13.

Outside of that Saints game, the NFC East has only won 3 games against a team with a winning record out of their division. All 3 of those games were against the 9-7 Falcons.

Silly question, but are any of the games in danger of being blacked out in the home team's market? (Yeah, we still have to deal with that)

I read a newspaper article here that the Jets/Chargers game (the last of the four) is already sold out. Earliest sell out of the season (I think).

Here are the possible permutations for the Conference championships:

NFC (teams: Cardinals, Cowboys, Saints, Vikings)
Cardinals @ Vikings
Cardinals @ Cowboys
Cowboys @ Saints
Vikings @ Saints
(Cardinals, as lowest seed, cannot host NFC championship)

AFC (teams: Chargers, Colts, Jets, Ravens)
Chargers @ Colts
Jets @ Colts
Ravens @ Chargers
Ravens @ Jets
(Ravens, as lowest seed, cannot host AFC championship)

So, which ones are gonna happen?

All year? I've been busting on the Cowboys for 44 years.

Of course few people notice most years since the bandwagon only fills up if they make the playoffs.

Well I used to rag on the Raiders much more often, but that's just not fun any longer. Mainly because, unlike the Cowboys, their fans stopped claiming supremacy once they became totally inept and their owner turned their franchise into a joke.

LOL! People see what they want to see behind those rusty steel curtains. Compare the number of total wins of the NFC East against any other division (for the past, say, oh, I dunno...44 years? ) and they absolutely obliterate the totals of all others. If it weren't for 80% of their losses coming against each other and within the division, they'd easily put at least 3-4 teams in the playoffs every single year. Unlike other divisions, the East doesn't serve up cupcakes to its leaders each and every week.

I was only talking about this year.

I thought that was pretty clear, unless you really think it's possible that the entire NFC East has only beat two teams with a winning record over the past 44 seasons.
