i don't know borg i kinda like Pit over Ten and TB over SF if that happens it'll be a real close one. The other two games sound about right. For the SuperBowl i bet it will be NYJ vs. TB. TB shocks Phi in NFC Champ. Game.

Cyris: I agree it'll be the Jets and Bucs in the Super Bowl.

I think the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will play either the Oakland Raiders or Tennessee Titans In The Superbowl.
Either 1 Of Those Games Would Be A Good 1, But The Buccaneers Would Win It Of Course No Matter Who They Play...

San Francisco didn't win the playoff game 16, 13... They won the first game of the regular seaon by that score. San Francisco won the Wild Card Playoff game 39-38 Over The New York Giants.
Now NFL Officials are saying they made a mistake. They didn't call a pass interference on San Francisco which could've given the Giants new life on the field goal to win the game. Also they said you couldn't spike that.

Superbowl
Tampa and New York is not even going to be a great game. I mean don't get mean wrong Tampa is a solid team but they don't have to explosion that New York has. I think Tampa will score but it will still be a blowout for the New York Jets.

Read my post again.
First, I never said it would be a GREAT game. I said it would be a GOOD game.
Second, I never specifically said any team I just said No matter who they play it would be a good game.
Try reading more closely next time.
Ok... I agree that Tampa's offense isn't as explosive as the Jets, but the Buccaneers have the NFL's best defense and that would keep the game close. Also, right now we don't even know if either of these teams will go to the Superbowl yet, it's a little early for that (I mean we have a few weeks). These are just guesses.
I don't even think the Jets will get to the Superbowl.

You're right we're a couple of weeks away from the superbowl but i GURANTEE that the Jets will make it to the superbowl and whoever the play well ecxept for the Eagles it will be a blowout.

Well it's sunday and the jets as i type are playing the raiders. The titans got lucks and the steelers should have won so i was wrong on one but the ohter two games the bucs and the eagles both won like i predicted and my next prediction is that the bucs will win the game go to the super bowl and the jets will be waiting for them.

Well... Looks Like The Jets Lost...Ha...
I was 3-1. I said Atlanta would beat Philadelphia. My next prediction is Tampa Bay beating Philadelphia on the NFC side. I don't have a prediction on the AFC side since it's going to be really close.

Indeed.
FYI:
@TB 31, SF 6
@Oak 30, NYJ 10
@Ten 34, Pit 31
@Phi 20, Atl 6
Which gives me a 3-1 record for the divisionals.
Next week (Championship Round):
TB @ Phi
Ten @ Oak
I pick: (3-1 last week, 7-1 (87.5%) overall)
TB over Phi (Big upset by the Bucs!)
Oak over Ten (McNair is good, but not as good as Gannon)

Yeah New York lost. They suck. So now i have to go with tampa and oakland in the super bowl. That would mean the best offense will be going against the best defense and if you haven't hear the motto yet "Defense win championships" so i'm going with Tampa for our Super Bowl Champions.
I'm 5 for 3 right now (Wildcard and Divisional Playoff together)
AFC Championship
Oakland vs. Tenn.
Winner
Oakland
28-17
NFC Championship
Phi. vs. Tampa
Winner Tampa
24-21 Even though Tampa has the best defense. You know McNabb will put points up on the board.

Super Bowl, baby! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
*clears throat* Okay, I'm calm now.
That means that it's Bucs vs. Oak/Ten in the Super Bowl. We'll see which it is. Official roundup coming after the Oak/Ten game.

OH YEAH, THE BUCS ARE GOING TO THE SUPERBOWL!!!!!!!!!! They'll Beat Oakland. They should nickname this Superbowl the "Battle Of The Pirates", Baby. Hey, If Tampa Bay can beat Philadelphia then they can beat anyone! Especially with their defense! Did you see that 92-yard interception return for a TD to seal the game by Ronde Barber? The Bucs broke A LOT of records that game (Can't win road playoff game, 0 offensive TDs in Philadelphia last few trips, etc...) and they even spoiled the last game @ the Vet! If they can set records, they're going to continue to set records and win the Superbowl XXXVII Championship since as Cyris pointed out, DEFENSE wins championships!
P.S. It should be a good matchup #1 Offense vs. #1 DEFENSE, Gruden vs. His Former Team

TB 27, @Phi 10
@Oak 41, Ten 24
Oak vs. TB, Super Bowl XXXVII, San Diego
My Pick (9-1, 90% overall, 2-0 last week [I need a job as an NFL statistician!])
TB over Oak in low-scoring close game. (17-14?) Similar to 1999 NFC Championship game (StL 11, TB 6) but with a little more scoring.

I like it the "Battle of the Pirates." The Bucs and the Raiders in the Superbowl. Well i was wrong with the Jets but my Bucs came through like i said and are GOING TO THE SUPERBOWL. WOOOO.
It should be a good game best defense vs. best offense. But like i said defense wins championships so the bucs will win in a close game i might add.
The prediction
Bucs over Raiders.
17-14 with a field goal that wins the game for the bucs.
SUPER BOWL TIME
ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL?
