Weird the Vikes get the Early Sunday game

of course with San Diego playing Sunday it was inevitable for the Vikes to have the early game
 
Classy move by a Philadelphia Eagles employee:

my picks this weekend are dallas,patriots,packers,bengals.
i'm not so sure about the bengals pick but i'm going for it anyway :p
 
My Wild Card predictions:

Bengals over Jets- The game's in Cincy, Benson will be back, and Sanchez has had some disastrous games on the road this season (at New England, at New Orleans).

Cowboys over Eagles- Dallas is playing well down the stretch, the Eagles' have an iffy running game, the Cowboys run the ball better. For all I hear about the pressure on Romo and Wade Phillips, the Eagles also have something to prove. They are arguably the NFC team of the decade, yet have only 1 Super Bowl appearance and 0 titles. If they lose, they'll go down as the biggest underachieving team this decade.

Patriots over Ravens- Never understimate the power of home-field advantage in the playoffs.

Cardinals over Packers- Aaron Rodgers has no postseason experience; remember what happened last year with Matt Ryan?
 
My picks... and appropriate hedging statements

Jets - It's theirs to lose, if they have to rely on Sanchez, they likely wont. If they go down early will be tough for them to come back
Packers - Cardinals are so banged up, hard to pick them
Cowboys - Will have to find a new and creative way to lose this one with the way the team is playing
Patriots - Ravens (specifically Ray Rice with the entire team on his back) have been pretty good, but Patriots are so tough at home
 
The Bengals are playing better than last week, but barely.
