The defense is not really Jim Johnson-quality. But Vick is a unique talent, not only as a running QB but he also throws very very few INTs. The team is averaging .5 INTs per game.

Is Cam Newton really the sure thing he's advertised as? (I haven't seen him play.)

watch the bcs championship and see fot youself.
The answer is YES!
More than you think.
A lot of people would tell you that Vick is the absolute best rushing quarterbacks of all time.
Newton puts Vick to shame.
There is no doubt whatsoever, that Cam Newton, is by far, the best rushing QB of all time....and he hasn't even gotten started yet.
Believe

Vick is going to be key in what happens in this game.
The Giants pass rushers are gonna go after him like there's no tomorrow.
If they get to him early, he's gonna be forced to throw under pressure which will certainly result in a pick or two.
If Vick eludes the pass rush, he'll be looking at a career game in rushing yards.
The Giants are gonna score, so its just a matter of whether or not it'll be a blow out, or a close game.

In the Jaguars - Colts game, I project 120-170 net yards for Maurice Jones drew, which should eat up about a full quarter of the game.
In games where the Jaguars faced an under par run defense, Garrard has had a very very high passer rating, as the defense is almost always with 8 men in the box.
Peyton should do well in this game, which should make it interesting.
If half the red zone visits end in field goals, we'll be looking at an easy Jaguars win, otherwise, it'll be a thriller.

Wow who would of thought that Maurice Jones Drew would only end up with "46" rushing yards total? Jeeze.

2 games left and if the Patriots win one out of 2 games they will wrap up home field advantage throughout the AFC playoffs.

I'm sure they will win 1 out of 2 games but I'm not sold on them automatically winning both playoff games,but it sure will be tough to beat the Patriots at New England this January.

Man I'd go as far as saying now that if there are NO INJURIES the New England Patriots WILL represent the AFC in the Super Bowl,I don't think they will lose the divisonal or the AFC Championship game both played in New England.

Tom Brady will be the 2nd QB to play in 5 Super Bowls,John Elway being the other. Them winning the Super Bowl is a whole different story but I'm saying they will be there no question.

I can see NE sustaining some injuries if they meet the Ravens followed by the Steelers despite the special enforcement of rules. Right now as a football fan (and a Steelers fan), I'd like to see a Green Bay/Pittsburgh SB.

Considering the utter failure on the part of the Chiefs yesterday, I don't think they're going to be so much as a speed bump to the Ravens on their way to a possible Pats matchup.

Yeah the Chiefs kinda blew it,even though it was a meaningless game they still didn't want a beating from the Raiders. Earlier in the season I didn't think the Patriots were as strong as they are right now,as I said if there are absolutely no injuries whatsoever during the playoffs I can't see the Ravens or the Steelers beating them in New England,but stranger things have happened thats for sure.

How about the Seattle Seahawks 7-9 winning the weak NFC west division? HA! They really should change the playoff format,I think the Bucs and Giants deserve a playoff spot at 10-6 rather than a 7-9 team winning a division but thats the rules and the Hawks are hosting the defending Super bowl Champion Saints and are going to get thier feathers ruffled! HA!
