Maybe I shouldn't pick this week - I seem to be a jinx!  Anyway, I'm going to say:

Going with the stats and conventional wisdom haven't gotten me anywhere, so I'll go with who I want to win :)

Eagles

Steelers

I would say Cards and Steelers. I know I am too late to count for the Cards, forgot to put it in writing before the game started. Oh, well, back to the game.

Considering there were only 2 games - it's my best week of picks ever. lol.  And now the sad part - no football for a few weeks and then there is only one more.  Then the dreary winter REALLY begins.

Amen BettyJean. I almost literally have withdrawal symptoms for the first 2-3 weeks after the Super Bowl until I finally accept that there is no more football... until the massive coverage of the scouting combine on NFL network begins!! Woot!!
