That's right folks - it's here.
Post your picks!
---------------------------------------------------------------------
NFC Wildcard Game 1 - January 7th
Washington (10-6) at Tampa Bay (11-5)
Tone's pick: Bucs 28-20. Not a fan of either, don't really care who wins this game, but I think Tampa has been playing well lately, plus they're at home.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
AFC Wildcard Game 1 - January 7th
Jacksonville (12-4) at New England (10-6)
Tone's pick: Pats 30-13. Tom Brady is undefeated in the playoffs, and will stay that way until they travel to Indy. The Jags record is deceiving, they have had one of the easiest schedules in the NFL.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
NFC Wildcard Game 2 - January 8th
Carolina (11-5) at New York (11-5)
Tone's pick: Panthers 27-23. This game could go either way, I think. Carolina, when they play well, are very very hard to beat - but they're main problem this season has been staying consistant. Same with the Giants... I think this will be a close game, could go either way, but I like the Panthers to win this one.

AFC Wildcard Game 2 - January 8th
Pittsburgh (11-5) at Cincinnati (11-5)
Tone's pick: Steelers 34-27. Lloyd's Steelers sure have been playing well lately, the Bengals have not. Cinci is too weak on defense, and I think they will have a lot of redzone mistakes leading to no points or field goals instead of touchdowns. I'll be rootin for Cinci (sorry Lloyd!!) but I think Pittsburgh is just too strong.

I'm going to pick Carolina and Indianapolis in the Super Bowl, with Indy winning.
Will update after this weekend's playoff action, with Divisional picks.
