Oh god it's here

Three of the 4 playoff games this weekend are rematches of last week's games, the setting changing for only one of these games. Stupid? Probably, but who can blame a team for benching players or generally not giving a shit at the end of a long (perhaps too long...) season.

I think all 3 outcomes will change. It seems that the Bengals generally follow a win at home/lose on the road mantra, and thus will defeat the vastly overrated Jets.

Philly is going to score 40. Dallas will not win a playoff game for the 14th or something straight season, but will still command more media attention than any other team this offseason.

The flip I feel least confident in is Arizona turning things around at home, but they are certainly a big game team. In my mind it comes down to the Packers defense, and also if Arizona can commit fewer than 6 turnovers. Domoonique Rodgers Cromartie (tried to spell it without looking it up!) gets a lot of attention, and the Packers passing game is the heart of their team.

Also Ravens beat Patriots.
