NFL Divisional Playoff Picks

Patriots 31, Chiefs 20- With Edelman back, I don't see the Pats getting held to under 30
Cardinals 34, Packers 21- I feel stronger about this outcome than any of the four
Seahawks 19, Panthers 14- this is gonna be an old fashioned slugfest
Steelers 28, Broncos 20- I don't think Roethlisberger will be 100%, but neither will Manning, and I frankly trust Big Ben more in a big game (history backs that up)
 
I'm going with all four home teams, the teams that had the bye. Although it would not surprise me to see the Chiefs beats the Patriots, but I'm going to go against the hot hand, and pick New England.

Chiefs at Patriots
Seahawks at Panthers
Packers at Cardinals
Steelers at Broncos
 
Sadly the Steelers will never have a chance this weekend ...
Bronco's get the bye.
Steelers playing without thier #1 WR Antonio Brown, after the Bengals incident.
Also playing without thier # 1 and #2 Running Backs.
Also with Big Ben being injured in the Bengals game as well, he'll be out there at about 70%.

This will be ugly.

I can see why you might say that, but the Steelers strength on defense is stopping the run. That means Manning is probably gonna have to beat you. Divisional Weekend has historically been a house of horrors for him.

IF, the Steelers D clamp down on them like they did in the 2nd half of thier previous game ... then well see ... that said, the Steelers D hasn't had that "Complete" game yet.

A thing to look for is to see if Ben can throw it more than 10-15 yards down field ... if he can, theres a chance, if not, the Bronco's secondary will sit on the short routes and it will be a long day.
