Soooo, Bleeding Sports dropped the ball and failed to post the Sunday picks in our Playoff Pick'em competition. My apologies to the PickMeister who had his picks in on time. In the spirit of keeping the competition alive... here are the picks, which were indeed made before the outcomes of the Sunday games.
The PickMeister - J.Daniels
INDIANAPOLIS (-9) over San Diego
Nine points is a big spread considering the Chargers beat the Colts in their previous meeting. This time, however, there’s no Antonio Gates and don’t expect Peyton to throw another 6 interceptions. Sorry Cromartie. With Rivers being unreliable, the Chargers game plan looks to be simply pounding the ball with Tomlinson and 6 linemen. Indy’s much improved defense will surely be to ready for this strategy. With Harrison back in the lineup the Colts high-octane offense will roll past the Bolts with no problem. Take Indianapolis to cover the 9 point spread.
New York (+7.5) over DALLAS
With the exception of the first quarter, the G-Men looked great last week. Eli, for the second straight week, played very well controlling the Giants offense. In fact, of the 8 QBs that played last weekend Eli was the only one who didn’t turn the ball over. Go figure. And while Eli is shaking off the rust and getting focused, Romo is doing the opposite acting like it’s the offseason and relaxing in Mexico with Jessica Simpson. As far as T.O. goes, he’s not playing, he might be playing, and now he is playing. Either way, he won’t be 100%. And with Terry Glenn not having played a game in over a year, that only leaves Witten to catch Mr. Simpson’s balls. Too many distractions for the Cowboys. Take New York with the points.
