There, I made my picks and I'll stick by them. Picking the Broncos might be crazy, but pride will play a part here. The Broncos remember what happened there last year and will be looking for payback. It all depends on the Broncos running game and how much pressure the defense can put on Manning.

Picking the Rams to beat the Eagles is a huge stretch, but I think Philly has lost their MVP and hasn't played a real football game in over a month. They will be ripe for an upset. If they get past their first round game, their chance of advancing to the Super Bowl increases, obviously, but I still think the Falcons will knock them off.

No matter what happens, I feel confident that Atlanta goes to the Super Bowl and that Pittsburgh and New England fight it out for the AFC Championship. If Pittsburgh is full strength and playing well, nobody will beat them this year.
