NFL DIVISIONAL ROUND PREDICTIONS

Wild Card Record: 1-3 (.250)

1. New Orleans Saints at Seattle Seahawks

Thoughts: It's certainly commendable that the Saints were able to pull off a road win in the playoffs. However, the Eagles' home-field advantage isn't like the Seahawks'. Frankly, I'd be very surprised if the Saints pulled the upset. But then again, I've already been surprised by the Saints once these playoffs.

Pick: Seahawks

2. Indianapolis Colts at New England Patriots

Thoughts: Andrew Luck is already one of the premiere quarterbacks in the NFL at the ripe old age of 24. Unfortunately for him, Bill Belichick bathes in goat's blood. Even though the better part of their team is held together with chewing gum and tape, the Patriots still know how to perform a little playoff magic.

Pick: Patriots

3. San Francisco 49ers at Carolina Panthers

Thoughts: Even though the Panthers already beat the 49ers (in Candlestick Park no less), I can't imagine the 49ers are going to be beaten twice by a talented, though inferior team.

Pick: 49ers

4. San Diego Chargers at Denver Broncos

Thoughts: Fun fact- the Chargers are the only team this year to hold the Broncos under 400 yards of total offense. In fact, they did it twice. I expect this is going to be a hard fought game, but I think the Broncos will just edge their division rivals out. Look for this game to be the best of the weekend.

Pick: Broncos
