Saturday Games

Cardinals at Panthers (-6.5): You have to give Arizona all the credit in the world getting to this point, but navigating the playoff waters with a quarterback that probably won’t even reach Trent Dilfer-like levels is probably something you don’t want to do. Panthers.

Ravens at Steelers (-3): With Le’Veon Bell out for the game, Ravens have a chance, but backing into the playoffs, looking the way they did probably means a loss to a surprisingly good Steelers team. While the game should be close, it’ll all come down to how elite Joe Flacco is. Steelers.

 

Sunday Games

Bengals at Colts (-3): I was invited to give my two cents over at FantasyPros:

“This is a shaky pick to say the least (and that’s even before you realize that ginger is best only as a garnish). With Marvin Lewis 0-5 in the postseason (with the previously mentioned Andy Dalton at 0-3), even I’m chortling at the proposition of a Bengals upset victory. But let’s not forget that the Colts running game this season has looked a lot like me translating Sanskrit, and while Andrew Luck has put in a career year, the Bengals have shown an ability to contain the pass with strong front-7 play. At least one road dog always moves on from Wild Card weekend, and believe it or not, based on the other match-ups, I’m betting this is the game where it happens.” Bengals.

Lions at Cowboys (-6.5): While this probably is the marquee matchup of the weekend (despite the intra-division hoo-ha that the AFC North is throwing), I don’t see how the Lions win this game. True, they have a fierce defense (especially if you need to be stepped on!), but the running game is just too inconsistent and Matthew Stafford isn’t really all that good at his job. Cowboys.
