Wilcard Weekend

DMW

Any thoughts?

I didn't get to see all the games, but from what I did see...

Carolina looked awesome. Probably the best team in the NFC when they're playing like they're capable of.

Washington looked horrible. Look for them to get spanked next week up in Seattle.

I didn't see either of the AFC games, but the Pats appeared to put together a solid victory. Then again, the Jags have never been that good, but rather have just benefited from a really soft schedule.

I'm sorry to see the Bengals make an early exit. I think they're one of the more entertaining teams to watch, though not with John Kitna at the helm. None of it means much as neither team stands much of a chance against Indy.

Here's my take...

- Patriots looked good. No surprise there. They are getting healthier. I'm just not sure how much of it was them or how much of it was the Jags being the sorriest team in the playoffs. I don't trust Denver at all though, so I'm taking the Pats to go to the AFC Championship game.

- Bengals would have won with Palmer. It's easy to use that excuse but what the hell.. There was no way the Steelers were going to slow down that passing attack. Unless the Steelers really get lucky and Manning gets hurt, look for the Colts to lay a big spanking on them. I'm talking at least 38 points scored.

- Washington was awful, but can I trust the Seahawks? No, I really can't.. but they should at least win one game.

- Lastly, the Panthers. They looked very good on defense and pretty decent on the O as well. Ginats couldn't stop the run and Eli sucked. Watch out for Steve smith next week, Panthers could be getting ready to make a run.
