Poll: Who will win the non-Patriot games next week?

[neuronet]

What three teams will win the other games next week? I'm thinking all the teams that got a bye are going to the championship games, though my opinion might change depending on Steelers injuries, if they aren't too bad.

Thought it would be fun to do a poll with all eight possible combinations.

 

[long distance]

the only non-favourite HF team next week are the 15-1 Panthers

Wait really?

You must be British.

I guess if the q was who do u WANT to win I'd say squeelers, panthers, packers...

 

[MainePatsFan26]

I have a sneaking suspicion that with all the road teams winning this weekend, the universe with correct itself by having all the home teams win this next weekend.

 

[thecore762]

I rather see the packers or cardinals in the SB vs us..

but all away reams were favored

 

[sb1]

Home teams win this weekend and then road teams the weekend after that.

One day in, 38 votes, here are the votes for each team so far:

Steelers: 12 votes to win
Broncos:26 votes

Panthers: 21 votes
Seahawks: 17 votes

Packers: 3 votes
Cards: 35 votes

The Cardinals are the most heavily favored here, followed by the Broncos, then the Panthers, who are pretty even with the Seahags in the votes...

I went steelers hawks AZ. Could see Carolina winning as well. Hawks panthers is a toss up to me. Two defense 1st teams with meh offense.

Steelers 26 (10 points off turnovers)
Denver 17

Why - Ben is not as hurt as is being lead on about and Brown though he got concussed will play. The fact is though this steelers D is not good Manning is not going to play well. He is gonna have some turnovers and over the course of 60 minutes will be exposed vs a competent team.

Seahawks 23
Carolina 20

The Seahawks played about their worst game on offense and still won. Their D is on point and is going to have a good day vs Carolina. On offense they have the kind of O that while not prolific does well against the ball hawking Panthers. They will not let that D beat them by being forced into mistakes.


Cardinals 30
Packers 20

Cardinals are just better than the Packers. Even their best player (Rodgers) is not the advantage they wished it was. Palmer is solid at least and Cardinals next 52 >> Packers.

I went Broncos/Panthers/Cardinals and would be glad to be wrong (except Cardinals...be nice to see a new face for the next round).

I am a tepid Packers fan (when it doesn't affect the Pats), and would love to see the Packers beat the Seahags in the NFCC game this year.

That said, I picked the same as you.

 

[Kontradiction]

Donks, Panthers, Cards. Steelers are too beat up right now. Now, if I can get full clarification that Brown will be good to go, that may change my mind. But, as of right now, it's all a bit muddy in that regard.

 

[RobertWeathers]

I'm sticking with my tried n true method of picking games in the playoffs. Better QB+ Better Defense will win.

AZ over GB (Palmer has had a better year than AR)
SEA over CAR (Wilson is a better QB than Cam. SEA D is better than CAR)
Pitt over DEN ( I think Roeth is fine and I think DENs D is overrated)

 

[50-yard-line]

I think Carolina beats Seattle. Carolina is very good. They can manufacture points and they're at home for a 1:00 game (which is 10am for the Hawks.

Seattle used up its horseshoe quota this year. I'll take Carolina.

Green Bay upsets Arizona...this is my out-on-a-limb pick. The offense found a little spark there and will carry over until groggy Arizona (witness week 17) wakes up...and then it will be too late.

Pittsburgh beats Denver. Pitts D is underrated and violent. Manny Sanders is going to get eaten and pooped bac onto the field. Manning isn't that good and Pittsburgh will put up points.

 

[jah]

Picked Broncos/Seahawks/Packers but I'm not at all confident about the Seahawks or Packers winning.

 

[sevengables_2207]

I picked all the home teams, as this is the week where home-field advantage really comes into prominence a majority of the time.

However, I was tempted to pick Seattle, but I feel that the Panthers have the personnel on defense to handle Wilson and the 'Hawks O.
