Championship Weekend Predictions

SmootSmack · 01-16-2009, 11:40 AM

AFC:

Steelers 20
Ravens 15

Defensive battle for much of the game but I think it will come down to Roethlisberger connecting on a couple of big passes deep late in the game that will lead the Steelers to a come from behind victory. Do the Steelers need to win the Super Bowl, or at least make it, to be considered the greatest franchise in modern NFL History (past 40 years) or are they already there?

NFC:

Cardinals 41
Eagles 17

Predicting another blowout for the Cardinals. I think they're on fire, and I hate the Eagles. Plus how can you not root for the Cardinals with two Gibbs' proteges running the show?

I like the Steelers this weekend and to win the whole thing regardless of who wins the NFC title game.

Steelers 15
Ravens 9

Eagles 31
Cardinals 28

I know it's typical Dallas hatred speaking, But I really want Pitt to win it all, just cuz Dallas fans will cry

Eagles 28 (SuperBowl Champs 2009)

Again look for Samuels and Dawkins to light it up back there!

Ravens 20
Steel. 17
I'm a Ravens believer

Cardinals and Pittsburgh -- no scores. I think both will be convincing wins.

SFREDSKIN · 01-16-2009, 12:01 PM

Ravens and Cardinals.

MdBluefinCrab · 01-16-2009, 12:05 PM

Pgh wins another close game because they are the fresher team and have already beaten Balt twice.
Pgh 24
Balt 14

With Westbrook not 100% Philly doesnt have much else on O. Amazingly, AZ has found a rushing attack and their D has really stepped up. In the end, Philly just wont be able to keep up with AZ.
AZ 27
Philly 13

I think these games will suck to watch this week. I'm only saying this because I might miss the tail end of the late game.

Baltimore 13
Pittsburgh 27

Philadelphia 0
Arizona 22

Supposed to snow in Pitt, may make it fun to watch!

gtripp, is this what you believe, or what you hope happens?

RobH4413 · 01-16-2009, 01:19 PM

Ravens 10
Steelers 23

Eagles 13
Arizona 24

Really want a Ravens - Cardinals superbowl, but I think that it wont happen.

SirClintonPortis · 01-16-2009, 01:34 PM

Pitt and Zona. Both win by 10 point margins.

I don't ever post something that's so totally ridiculous that I don't believe it could happen, but I think predicting scores is kinda silly so I'll usually pick something way out there.

I think Arizona and Pittsburgh both will win by more than a touchdown. I think there's a decent chance the Eagles get shut out.

Steelers Cardinals I think would be more interesting. The two guys who were supposed to be the leading choices to succeed Cowher in Pittsburgh facing the Steelers in the Super Bowl.
