Last Week: (3-1)
23 wins, 23 loses, and 2 pushes heading into Wildcard Weekend...Once in the playoffs anything can happen...Four games this weekend, and a pick from each game...Happy playoffs...Brief reflection on last week before Topher City Gopher Money Makers Wildcard weekend picks are revealed...
1.) Vikings made a fool of TCGMM all season...
2.) If the Eagles can remember the formula they used at the end of the 2011 season and apply it to the 2012 season the "Dream Team" might be a reality...
3.) Late points allowed for the Jets to lose but cover the spread...And then blame Santonio Holmes for everything that has ever gone wrong in New York...
4.) Chiefs and Broncos was one of the ugliest games in memory...And then the Broncos backed into the playoffs and a home game...Wow
Picks...
1.) Saints (-11) vs. Lions... Lions get their first taste of the playoffs in over a decade... Stafford to Megatron will keep it close, for about a half...Saints roll...
2.) Bengals (+3) @ Texans...Texans have edge on the ground and at home but with uncertainty in the passing game the Bengals keep it close...
3.) Falcons (+3) @ Giants...The Giants are a very hot team right now...Eli is playing like a guy with something to prove and the defensive front is peaking...but unless they get to Matt Ryan on every play who is going to stop Roddy, Julio, and Gonzalez? Falcons moving on...
4.) Steelers (-9) @ Broncos...Hampered by injury Big Ben finds a way...Ryan Clark's absence turns into a non-factor because Tebow cannot throw it deep enough for a safety to make a play, especially with pressure in his face all day...Oh yeah the Steelers have that guy Polamalu as well...
