Divisional Weekend Predictions

I went 3-1 last weekend - losing my sure thing bet in Seattle's big W. The Seahawks move on to Chicago while everything else I expected panned out. This weekend features compelling games with two young quarterbacks playing what could be the first of many career playoff games against each other in ATL v. GB, the AFC's two best rivalries and, uh, the Seahawks v. Bears. Picks below in train of thought form:

Baltimore Ravens at Pittsburgh Steelers
Physical matchup of ass kicker defenses. Pittsburgh fresh. Ravens Tired. Polamalu 2 sacks and a pick off of Joe Sacko. Pittsburgh 21, Baltimore 13

Green Bay Packers at Atlanta Falcons
Young guns at QB. Home sweet dome for the Falcons. Falcons more physical than you think. Brent Grimes makes a key defensive play. Atlanta 27, Green Bay 17

Seattle Seahawks at Chicago Bears
Seahawks confident after last week and earlier road win at Chi. Cutler likes to throw picks. Shitty field. Chicago has a good defense but I'm feeling the Pac. NW this weekend. Seattle 24, Chicago 14

New York Jets at New England Patriots
I didn't know these dudes were playing this weekend?? Nobody in the media wants to call a blowout but a cheap blogger like myself will. New England 38, New York 10
