NFL Playoffs Headlines and Predictions

Alright, i am going to try and predict the headlines in the papers tomorrow and also offer a prediction for the game in this quick post (starting to get back into the links again):

NYG vs DAL: Pregame Catfight Between Jessica Simpson and Eli Manning Forces Giants to use Backup QB. Prediction: NYG 87 - Dallas 3, as Romo loses focus worrying about Jessica being arrested for kicking the crap out of Eli and the Giants offense is unstoppable when you actually throw an NFL QB into the mix.

SEA vs GB: The Question Remains, Will Matt Hasselback Retire or Not? Prediction: GB 28 - Seattle 26 OT, as Hasselback wins the toss in overtime and says "We want the ball and i am going to get sacked for a safety", a much safer option than his last OT prediction as on the first snap he runs backwards out of the end zone.

NE vs JACK: A Bored Bill Belicheck Only Suits Up 8 Players. Prediction: Jacksonville 33 - NE 32, as Maurice Jones-Drew and Fred Taylor combine for 678 yards rushing against an 8 man front, of course two of those were Tom Brady and Randy Moss, who combined for 4 TD's and 4 2-pt conversions as they were the only offensive players suited up. At the post game news conference Bill Belicheck brings a handgun, sets it on the table and says "Any Questions?" resulting in 4 deaths of young sport writers who didn't know any better.


SD vs IND: Philip Rivers Doesn't Read Playbook, Thought he was Facing Eli Manning. Prediction: Indy 49 - SD 27, as Rivers tries to top his hero Peyton from their regular season match-up and throws 7 interceptions and says after the game "I was just trying to channel my inner Ryan Leaf"
