How about this one for predictions and talk outside of the Pack:

I'll take

Pack over Cards
Boys over Eagles

Saints over Pack
Boys over Queens

Saints over Boys

Gals over Jets
Ravens over Pats

Bolts over Gals
Colts over Ravens

Bolts over Colts

Bolts over Saints


I just made those picks on the spot and no real analysis. The crazy thing is, I could see EVERY SINGLE game I just picked going the opposite way, that is how much parity there is this year. And as much as I think the Jets didn't deserve a playoff spot and thought they were overrated, they looked like a poor man's Ravens from last year last night and I think they could make a bit of noise.

But wow, the parity is great. This could be an epic playoff.

The QBs in this playoff are amazing as well. Other than Sanchez and to an extent, Flacco (both of whom may enter the upper echelon some day), this is one hell of a crop of QBs...all of whom I believe have a pro bowl appearance.

EDIT: Fixed my Ravens/Bengals 2nd round opponents

Saints over Pack
Eagles over Queens


In that scenario, the Eagles would play the Saints and Pack would play the Vikings.

Well then the Eagles beat the Saints, Queens beat the Pack and the Eagles still go to the Superbowl and lose. :D

Also, if the Packers do not win I hope that the Jets beat the Vikings in the Super Bowl... Sanchez with a game winning drive after Favre throws a pick. :D

I'd probably be OK with that, especially if the Vikings went through the Pack to get there.

My bold prediction for the Packers is if they can get past the Saints (which I don't think they will) they will win the Super Bowl.

If the Packers are on their game the Saints are the only team in the NFC that can still beat them,in my opinion.I also think we are a tough match up for the Colts and would beat them.

If we play the Cowboys or Vikings I'd be super confident we'd win,I just don't see us getting past the saints.
