    My responses are 1/2 times on the same page as yours, it does NOT mean they have anything to do with you.
    Your delusions of grandeur are annoying. Read closely:

    My hope: Baltimore, Green Bay, Seahawks, Denver

    Reality (most likely): New England, Dallas (Flynn will somehow be in game), Seahawks, Denver

    Carolina on the road this season outside the division:


    lost 38-10 @BAL
    tied Cincinnati because of Nugent
    lost 38-17 @GB
    lost 45-21 @PHI
    lost 31-13 @MIN

    I think Seattle wins.

    In the other three, the home team is more likely to win, but I don't trust any of them. Rodgers is clearly not 100% and his mobility will be limited, Denver has not been good in their last four or five games (and Manning's playoff history is not good), and New England has a habit of choking/playing poorly in the playoffs, especially against the Ravens.

    The vegas line for the Balt v. NE game is an interesting one. Something like -7 NE. Seems a little high. I bet baltimore will at least cover that

    Carolina has not played anything like the team in those games recently.
    They had a young Oline to start the season, had to deal with the Greg Hardy siutation which was a fiasco - and figure out to play without him.
    They have gelled and are not the same team from those games. They went through a stretch where they were 1-8-1.
    Especially in the playoffs, what you did in October means shit, it is how you are playing now.

    For comparison, the Jets in 2009 went through a mid season stretch where they went 1-6 giving up over 24 or more points in 5 of the losses. And we all know what happened.

    As I stated in the original post in this thread -- without Lotulelei they will end up wearing down, but it still may be closer than people think and I would not be shocked if they won,

    Cowboys and Broncos win easily.
    Ravens win a close one.

    Pats over Ravens 31-13, Pats are that much better than the Ravens
    Seahawks over Panthers 20-13, This one won't seem as close as the final score
    Cowboys over Packers 34-31, Rogers isn't right and Packers D is not great
    Colts over Broncos 35-31, Just a feeling. I feel the least confident about this one.

    I also have that vibe. There have been a few playoff games in Rodgers era where the Packers really had the better team, but just weren't on the roll the other team was, and they ended up losing. Yes, I'm mainly talking about the Giants. I still think GB will win, but I'm not Soxxx level confident about it. Rodgers finished the game 2 weeks ago after getting re-injured during the game. So 2 weeks later, I can't see why he wouldn't be able to finish it. IMO this is being made way too big of a deal. He doesn't really run anymore, and the protection has been good enough where he doesn't have to scramble around all that much. Plus the Dallas defense won't get that much pressure.

    Anyway picks..

    Ravens 27 Patriots 24
    Panthers 13 Seahawks 27
    Cowboys 31 Packers 37
    Colts 41 Broncos 31

    I'm not going to watch a video titled "Bench Aaron Rodgers"
    :D Wow.
    Also Soxxx, do you honestly believe the Cowboys are going to win by 2 touchdowns? Seriously? I mean I can see a prediction where they squeak out a win, but come on.

    Wait don't you live in Texas? That would explain it I guess.

    What explains it is being somebody who says they aren't supporting the nfl anymore, and then talking about it more than anybody. Or saying John Wall is the best player in the NBA. Or picking Philly to win the SB with Sanchez and then claiming he was joking. Or claiming Rodgers would be exposed by the Pats, and then hiding when it didn't happen. Or claiming Rodgers would lose to Detroit the 2nd game, and then hiding when it didn't happen.

    I could go on but it is useless. Apparently you all are going to continue to let him troll you

    Good point there. I just can't wait to see what he says if the Packers win. I'm sure the excuses will be plenty.

    So you post the 8 times I was wrong, and don't post the 100s, if not 1000s times ive been right.

    Im still batting over .900 when it comes to predictions, and thats not my opinion.

    Come on son. October? Now that's just pure trolling, and you know it. There is zero chance that they lose their next 5 games in a row. I guess I'll sig you up though for Sunday. ;)

    Carolina played a weak schedule and did not impress. They could've very well lost to Arizona, had the Cardinals had Stanton or Palmer.

    They played better in December but their lack of good wins and lack of non-divisional road wins is telling.

    4-0 in December. 3 NFC South games and the hapless Browns.

    Being wrong or right is no big deal. Lying about it is lame
