NFL Playoffs (Conference Championship)

New Orleans Saints vs. Chicago Bears

Both teams will look to get the ground game running. The big battle could be quarterback Drew Brees against the opportunistic Bears passing defense. In the end I don't think the Bears offense will be able to keep up with the Saints offense. I'll take the Saints.

New England Patriots vs. Indianapolis Colts

Something in the back of my mind is telling me to pick the Colts, that this will be their year. But, I'm an illogical man, (and you can't ever bet against Brady in the playoffs) so I'll take the Patriots. Tom Brady is 10-0 in domes (stadiums), and Peyton Manning has never beaten the Patriots in the playoffs.

Term, you bet against the Colts last week and they won. Wanna reconsider? :D

I know, I know...the only game in the playoffs I've yet to predict correctly. The damn Colts. I'm keeping my pick, though I am guessing I might regret it, much like last week.

If the Colts win, their's no way I can NOT pick them to win it all.

Saints and Colts (responded to last week's thread to get my predictions in before gametime) - though it's looking like I should have gone Bears :doh:

I HATE THE PATS.
I REFUSE TO PICK THEM...AND I HOPE THEY GET THEIR BUTTS KICKED!

JUST IN CASE YOU AREN'T SURE....I HATE THE PATS.

I want the Saints to win, but I'm going with the Bears on this game.
And, because I HATE THE PATS....I'm picking the Colts.

:D

At the half, it's Bears 16, Saints 7.

Yep. Speaking of, the Saints just scored on an 88 yard touchdown pass to Reggie Bush. 16-14 bears, in the 3rd quarter. This is getting good.

Nice catch, cut and TD from Reggie Bush. Could have done without the showboating. Now if the Saints can play some run D...

Congrats :) on the BEARS' win today!!!!!!!!!!

The Saints brought a well needed ray of sunshine and diversion to those in the city trying to rebuild and still dealing with post K issues.....

I am still proud of our SAINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !

BLESS YOU BOYS!!!!!! :kiss:

Just wait til next season;)

Wow, the Saints completed a MAJOR 2nd half choke job!

Looks like the Colts are choking too.

Altho I may be wrong. Its actually turning into a game here in the 2nd half.

Agreed.

Since my Eagles couldn't get 'er done this year (AGAIN), I'm happy with the two teams going in. I just didn't want to see the damn Patriots win it...haha

I was 14 years old the last time Da Bears won the super bowl. Holy crap im getting old. This was a great game Rex played with no turnovers ( thank the Lord!! ) the defense finally showed up to play kickass football. On to Miami BABY! in the meantime Im blowing the dust off from my Bears Superbowl Shuffle tape GO BEARS!!!!!!!!!! ---->http://www.smithappens.com/video_superbowlshuffle.php
