Now is the time for this two big football stars to debut at the Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte. Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Carolina Panthers will battle for sole possession of first place in the NFC South
Both of the teams have shown really good performances during this season, but, in term of deciding who to choose to win the game becomes difficult. In one side we have experience while in the other we have power and speed. Sometimes is better to choose the older candidate. Tampa then is the option…
The Panthers show that they can beat almost any team during the whole game, but now, is the time for the coach to show up and ensure their spot for net year season. Read the rest of this entry »

Everyone knows what assuming does, and it’s no exception here. For most of the season I felt it was going to be the Dallas Cowboys vs. the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl. I at least know I’m half wrong now, thanks to the Giants marching into Texas Stadium and defeating the Cowboys on their home turf. The Giants Michael Strahan said before the game about hoping the third time is a charm. One final charm would be for the Giants to some how go into historic Lambeau field and get one more road win and earn their bid to the Super Bowl. After all, they have now won every game they’ve played on the road this year, except their first away game against Dallas. It’s safe to say that they’ve more then made up for that now. More importantly Eli Manning is beginning to look like a high quality playoff quarterback. Manning’s quarterback rating in the two playoff games has been 117.1 against Tampa Bay, and 132.4 against the Cowboys. Besides the final game of the year, against the New England Patriots, where he boasted a 118.6 rating, those two ratings are his best of the year. He has certainly saved his best for last, with his dream date being a rematch of the spectacular 38-35 loss to the Patriots in that final game of the year. First things first, and that is the Patriots have to beat the Chargers and the Giants have to find a way to beat the red hot Packers who suddenly look like a team of destiny.
When Ryan Grant fumbled the ball twice in the opening minutes of the first quarter against the Seahawks he had a choice to make. He could clam up and shy away from the ball the rest of the game, or he could come alive like he did the final half of the season where he ran for the second most yards from week eight on. He chose the latter. He ran the ball 27 times for 201 yards, while scoring three times. He also averaged 7.4 yards a carry. The snow may have been a factor, but to see Grant bounce back in such a matter after staring at adversity in the biggest game of his life is certainly a welcome sign. Also, with a leader like Brett Favre settling the youngster down, you’re bound to get a good reaction. Despite the near blinding snow the majority of the game Favre still completed 18 of 23 passes for three touchdowns and 173 yards. In the past Favre has been known to press when he has fallen behind, but he seemed to play this game the same throughout, eventually downing the Seahawks 42 to 20. Favre finished the day throwing snowballs at his teammates. He hopes that he gets to end the season at home throwing touchdowns against the Giants.
The Giants have found a way to neutralize key players lately as their defense has steadily improved throughout the entire season. I don’t think it’s a shock when I favor the Packers, especially since they will be playing in front of their home crowd, but I just have a feeling the Giants will hang close. This game will be a huge pressure spot for Manning, and I feel many, including myself, are excited to see how he handles the pressure. I predicted that the Cowboys game would rely on the play of Romo, and despite Romo having a decent game, it did comedown to a Romo interception on the end. I feel Manning could be in a similar situation with time expiring and his team down by a few points.

Seattle ended the Washington Redskins remarkable run to the playoffs with a 35-14 victory last Saturday while the Green Bay Packers rested at home awaiting the winner. Despite the lopsided score, the Redskins had a 14-13 lead with just over 11 minutes remaining in the game, so the Seahawks got nothing in the way of a rest in that game. Now they travel to Green Bay where but the cold weather and the great fans make the Packers the favorite to mean on to the NFC conference championships. However, experience, and their own amount of fair talent, may just be enough for Seattle to be the ones to advance.
Seattle brings Matt Hasselbeck and Shawn Alexander back for another run, the same players that helped bring the Seahawks to the Super Bowl in 2005. Hasselbeck overcame some mistakes in the Redskins game to finish the contest with 229 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions. While Alexander can still be a factor, there may be a changing of the guard in Seattle, with Maurice Morris set to take over. During the regular season Morris saw about 1/3rd less the carries as Alexander but he finished with the same amount of touchdowns (4) and 4.5 yards per carry, one full yard more then Alexander. In the first round of the playoffs the Seattle run game was nearly obsolete. Morris ran for 13 yards and Alexander had 46. The Green Bay Packers can relate, as they’ve ran up a 13-3 regular season record, mostly without a featured back.
When you think of the Packers the first thing you think of is cheese heads. After that you think of 18 year pro Brett Favre. After a couple of years as taking barbs as being “washed up,” “spent,” and “past his prime,” the ageless one has his team as one of the favorites to make it to the Super Bowl. Favre had his best year and many seasons, compiling over 4100 yards passing. As mentioned, the Packers didn’t have running success the majority of the season, but then along came Ryan Grant. Grant introduced himself to the rest of the league during a week eight victory over the Broncos and 104 rushing yards. After playing very sparingly nearly the first half of the year Grant finished the year with almost 1000 yards rushing, and an attempt per carry of over five.
It’s really hard to go against Favre in Green Bay, and I won’t be doing it here. I feel that Seattle is beatable, especially at Lambeau field. The Packers defense is also among the tops in the league, and while no running game may get you a win against Washington, I don’t think they will be able to find the same success against the Packers. I fancy the Packers in this one by a score of 31-20.

The Colorado area is enjoying one its biggest sports victories since the days of John Elway. The Rockies are in the World Series, and the Broncos just beat the Pittsburgh Steelers with a Jason Elam field goal as time expired. That was a victory most NFL pundits didn’t expect the Broncos could get, much like the task the Rockies find themselves in against the Boston Red Sox.
Leading the Broncos in a fairly productive manner is quarterback Jay Cutler. Cutler has been often been predicted as one of the next great quarterbacks, yet as of right now he is playing a fairly safe role as he still gets acclimated to the NFL.
This season he has thrown for seven touchdowns and eight interceptions. Despite having more interceptions then touchdowns he has a very accurate arm, completing 66.3 percent of his passes. Most of the time Cutler has been handing the ball off to Travis Henry. Henry has only scored one touchdown, but he is averaging 4.6 yards per carry, among the best in the league.
The Green Bay Packers will be coming off a bye week. They are led by the all-time touchdown, and interception leader, Brett Favre. Both of those records are expected, as his fearless attitude has allowed him to make plays hardly anyone else could, but at the same time sometimes make some bonehead decisions that have caused turnovers. Still, there is nobody else the Packers would rather have a quarterback leading this young squad into a promise land they have never seen before. Among those youngsters is running back DeShawn Wynn. After having a running back by committee approach early in the year, it appears Wynn has the position locked down, after averaging 4.1 yards per carry and scoring four touchdowns in the first six games of the season. One of Favre’s veterans is receiver Donald Driver, who is enjoying a very productive year that puts him at 36 catches, 11.4 yards per catch, and two touchdowns. Green Bay has been in a bunch of close games, but if they hadn’t given up a lead to the Bears two weeks ago they could possibly be undefeated. The defense is playing better then expected, and is riding on the wings of A.J. Hawk. Hawk is a playmaker that is always close to the ball.
The Broncos are always a tough game, despite being only 3 and 3 this season. Their coaching staff always seems to make necessary adjustments as the game goes on to keep it close. Many believe that the Packers are the beneficiaries of an easy schedule up until this point, and that is the reason for the good record. The Schedule will get tougher for the Packers from here on out, starting with the Broncos. The Broncos are generally a pretty tough team to play at home, and are playing well as the victory at Pittsburgh, in Pittsburgh, would tell us. With that, I think the Packers have just the right combination of offensive firepower and defense to slow down Denver in this one. I can’t imagine this one being anything like a close game, something the Packers are used to. In a fairly low scoring affair, I take the Packers 17-14.
