Still Underdogs

Falcons are soft IMO. Giants should handle them, although Giants are a hard team to figure at times as well.

That is why they are 40-1, but they are talented and could get hot...just last year they had GB down 14-0 in a blink. That game could have gotten ugly the other way real fast, but alas, GB went on a tear and ATL didn't know what hit them. I don't think they are close to the best team, but they have playmakers and if i'm trying to hit a big one, I'll put my $100 on them.

The Saints receiving corps drop percentage (4.3%) is better than ours (8.9%) their defense gets better pass rush and their offensive line protects better. They could beat us no problem. The question is the weather. They don't play that well outside the dome (relatively, mind you).

I think the Lions are a better value than the Falcons given those odds.

Packers are favored to win the Super Bowl.

Green Bay Packers 1.95 to 1
New England Patriots 3.50 to 1
New Orleans Saints 4.75 to 1
Baltimore Ravens 8.50 to 1
San Francisco 49ers 11.50 to 1
Pittsburgh Steelers 12 to 1
New York Giants 18 to 1
Atlanta Falcons 40 to 1
Houston Texans 45 to 1
Detroit Lions 50 to 1
Cincinnati Bengals 80 to 1
Denver Broncos 80 to 1

Atlanta can muster enough to defeat the 49ers. It doesn"t matter OUR 'O' is too much for both to handle in the NFC Final.

How do we get to that final?

Detroits exploits Vs our force weakened 'D' doesn't play out in NO. We get NO on Jan. 15. We win the turnover battle with a solid effort from our secondary, and an improvement in our pass rush distracts Drew Brees.

The teams with the two worst 'D's advance to the Super Bowl
to confound all the 'talking heads'. It's all the talk. Tom Brady Vs Aaron Rodgers and a certain shootout battle for the Championship.

Of course, the Packers win.

GO PACK GO !

You have your brackets fucked up. If NO wins, they play at SF and we get the winner of NY/Atl. If Detroit wins, we get them.

High. Flacco and the Ravens haven't been good in the playoffs lately or away from home this year.
