2013 Championship Picks

Alright, here we are. Championship weekend, two weeks away from the Super Bowl. It's all on the line here, and I'm sure the NFL is excited about the two match ups. Plenty of drama.

First, we've got the ever present Brady vs. Manning.

(2) Patriots vs. (1) Broncos
Pick: Broncos

The Broncos simply cannot afford a collapse like last year and will be doing everything they can to prevent that. They should have beaten the Patriots in the regular season. Peyton Manning is getting old and he realizes he only has a few more shots at winning another one.

Then, to the grudge on the West Coast.

(5) 49ers vs. (1) Seahawks
Pick: Seahawks

The Seahawks play with a chip on their shoulder and they're playing at home. What more can you say? The 49ers have squeaked by in the playoffs and will be unable to keep up with Seattle.

The last time two number one seeds met in a Super Bowl was 2009, when the New Orleans Saints and the Indianapolis Colts played. And naturally who was the QB for the Colts? Peyton Manning of course.

2013 Divisional Weekend Picks

Here are my picks for this weekend. The Chargers are my one upset pick, only because they seem to have been Manning's Achilles' heel for many seasons. I'm not totally sold on it, but I think it could happen. I also wouldn't mind seeing the Colts and Saints win, but doubt both teams could pull it off.

(6) Saints (11-5) vs. (1) Seahawks (13-3)
Pick: Seahawks
(4) Colts (11-5) vs. (2) Patriots (12-4)
Pick: Patriots

(5) 49ers (12-4) vs. (2) Panthers (12-4)
Pick: Panthers
(6) Chargers (9-7) vs. (1) Broncos (13-3)
Pick: Chargers
