Enjoy It While It Lasts


Yes, that is in reference to the Seahawks.  But more meaningfully it is to football fans everywhere.  With the BCS National Championship last night (Congrats to the Auburn Tigers) sadly, the football season is coming to an end, but let’s enjoy what is left while we can.  And what is left is some NFL Playoffs!!
Baltimore at Pittsburgh
Both teams known for their defense, but the Steeler’s offense is running on all cylinders now, so look for Pittsburgh to come out on top.
Green Bay at Atlanta
Two teams with great QBs.  Matty Ice has gotten a lot of recent attention, and it has been well-deserved.  Aaron Rogers is still growing and both quarterbacks need to prove themselves.  Advantage goes to Atlanta because they have had nothing to cheer for until Matty Ice came along, and they are going to be hungry for the win.
Seattle at Chicago
While I joked about Seattle’s playoff run being short lived, Jay Cutler is so inconsistent that the Seahawks just might have a chance.  More than likely Cutler and the Bear’s run defense will stop the Seahawks.
NY Jets at New England
This is going to be a game! Shanchez and the Jets offense have been a bit shakey, barely pulling out the win last weekend.  New England has been on fire and has plenty of momentum carrying them into the playoffs.  Plus they had a bye-week last week.  Advantage goes to New England, look for them on Super Bowl Sunday too.
Based on how the regular season went, no team can be counted out.  As football season winds down and the Super Bowl approaches, we should be able to finish the season off with some great games.
