Takes me level with TTNY with three correct predictions. I'm claiming the moral win on points difference. :mrgreen:
Or we could of course continue it next week...

Keep to this thread for ease I think. Only four of us apart from the odd confused interloper.

Ok I'll put mine in early...as I'm not changing brackets:

Denver to destroy Steelers...it won't be close with Ben injured - the scoreline will be uglier than my mother-in-law
New England - Going with the spoilt brat of a QB and a Patricheats win (experience will out in the end) though a Kansas would be the laugh factor

Arizona will dismantle Green Bay - Washington made Green Bay's offensive line look better than they are
Seattle to edge Carolina - Yeah yeah, falling for the local flavor...but this will come down to QB mentality. Carolina carry a heavy burden and Cam Newton hasn't had his nerves tested to this level. Seattle have gained strength in defense since the panthers won (or Seattle threw away) earlier in the season.

Denver...General Manning is back for his last huzzah
Kansas...The Patricheats have a lot of injuries...bye week not always good....Kansas the hottest team in the NFL...remember they started the season 1-5...won every game since
Seattle.....been there done that....the Panthers haven't
Green Bay....the pack lost here in AZ 2 weeks back...ok...not lost...they were crushed and QB Rodgers got sacked 8 times....good teams adjust...it is not going to happen again.

Denver - Whether the Broncos go with Peyton or Brock, they'll have too much at home against a battered Pittsburgh.

Kansas - If there's one thing I've learnt watching the NFL, it's never pick against New England when they're playing at home. However, I've also learnt not to pick against the wife either, so will be going for her in form 'Chiefies' to sneak past the slowly crumbling pats.

Arizona - Hate to put the kiss of death on my own team, but I will back my Cards to power past Packers at home. Week 17 was an end of season blip and the Packers will put up a better fight than they did in week 16, but still won't be enough to compete with the depth of weapons the Cardinals possess.

Seattle - Panthers have grabbed all the headlines this season, and you gotta love the way Cam plays. I'll be rooting for Carolina all the way in this game but despite their record, the panthers have done their best to lose a lot of games this season, and then getting away with a last minute win. The Seahawks are looking scary at the moment (with or without Lynch) and won't let them get away with it in this one.

Our breakfast area in the hotel has just been given permission to go blue / green on Sunday. Seahawk attire, blue/green skittles and M&Ms for the waffles and oatmeal and we just ordered the Seahawk do-nuts. New names for breakfast items are in the mix....... oh what we do to keep employees (and guests) happy.

Wonder what the group of 7 rooms from N Carolina will think

Broncos
Patriots
Cardinals
Panthers

Still feel on the fence about a couple of these games but just have gut feelings about the Pats sneaking another play-off win by whatever means (you know it...) and that Cam Newton will be the difference maker. Can't see the Steelers and Packers making it through another round. The Bengals threw their game away but left the Steelers battered and the Redskins had cheap heat from their end to the season.
