NFL Divisional Playoffs 

On to the second round of the NFL Playoffs.

The Clarion believes this evening in New England, there could be a instant where popular upset pick Jacksonville feels like they have the momentum. There could be a moment where they have a seven, or even a ten point lead, and the commentators are waxing on about Jacksonville's running game, and New England's rust after a week off. Right about then, is when MVP Tom Brady will starting ripping through them like a chainsaw through butter. Dinking and dunking to Wes Welker and Kevin Faulk, bombing to Randy Moss and generally blowing the Jags doors off. Don't believe the Jaguars upset hype! The Clarion likes Jacksonville quarterback, David Garrard. He did make the play of game last week on the road in Pittsburgh. But, don't forget he threw a total of nine complete passes. Are you taking the guys who threw nine complete passes last week or Tom Brady and the Patriots? Seems pretty obvious from here. The Clarion says the Patriots win and cover going away.

In today's earlier game, the Clarion is less certain of our prediction. Despite trashing Matt Hasselback and the Seahawks just last week, we are leaning their direction. A mere seven days ago, we were reminding the world about Matt Hasselback's worst career playoff performances, including the playoff OT pick six game loser Hasselback authored against the Packers. However, our gut instinct says Brett Favre is who is going to make the critical mistakes this week. Everyone has been falling for Packers running back, Ryan Grant. Can he really do it under the bright lights in the playoffs? We doubt it. The Seahwaks linebackers are lightning quick. When the Pack becomes one dimensional, Favre is at his worst. On the other side of the ball, the Clarion is convinced the Packers corners are overrated. Al Harris may have great hair, but he is not a great cover corner. He gambles often enough that he could usurp the old Elvis Patterson nickname, "Toast." And the other corner, much hyped, Heisman trophy winner, Charles Woodson has never played to the potential he showed as undergrad at Michigan. Says here the Seahwaks will score 28+ points in taking out the Pack at Lambeau today.

Tomorrow we like the Colts to crush the Chargers (by 20+.) Just cannot get a feel for Dallas vs. the NY Giants, we have been down on the Giants all year, but the Cowboys appear vulnerable.
