DIVISIONAL ROUND

Sorry for the radio silence. Holiday travel, etc has kept me away from the action. But I've finally made my divisional round picks...

Cardinals +4 Panthers (H) / O/U @54.5

DeVoodoo's pick: Panthers -4 & UNDER
Windy, cold conditions (plus WR Anquan Boldin's bad hammy) should keep the Cardinals' offense in check. Playing at home, with confidence, and considering how terrible the Cardinals have been all year on the road, I thought the safest play was to tease the Panthers down line from -10 and further pad the O/U.

Eagles +4 Giants (H)

DeVoodoo's pick: Eagles
Call it nothing more than a gut feeling, but I don't expect the Giants to repeat as champs, so why not pick the Eagles as the ones to beat them? Besides, they're division rivals, so playing the Giants at the Meadowlands is a familiar assignment for the Philly crew.

Chargers E Steelers (H) / O/U @ 44

DeVoodoo's pick: Steelers & UNDER
Taking this tease was essentially a means to tease the Steelers down to even. The O/U has me slightly concerned, but a bet worth playing, I think.

Prop bet
LeRon McCalin O/U rushing yardage for the game @ 72.5

DeVoodoo's pick: UNDER
Sorry I couldn't go a more traditional route here, but this game has me stupified. I honestly have no idea who will win this contest, though I'm leanign toward the Titans. But, man, how can you bet against that Ravens D? So I decided to bet against LaRon McClain, as much as I admire his skills. I think the Titans will do everything in their power to make Flacco beat them; head coach Jeff Fisher won't allow his squad to die a slow death via Ravens' runnings backs.
