I just looked at the last 6 weeks and the Falcons have a good chance to win on the road.   Here’s why:

1. The Cardinals are playing some bad football.  Out of the last 6 games, they only beat the Rams and the Seahawks.  Both teams are terrible.
2. Out of the other real competitions, the Cardinals got spanked by the Patriots, Vikings, Eagles, and the Giants.  All playoff teams, well, except for the Patriots but they should’ve been in the playoffs.
3. On the other hand, the Falcons beat the Vikings, Bucs, Chargers, and even the Panthers in the last 6 games!
4. Anquan Boldin is questionable, but most likely will play.  How effective is he going to be though?  That’s the question…

Should be close though.  I am hoping for some mad offense and turn this game into a shoot out.

Wow!  I just checked the lines for the NFL games for this weekend, and ALL the home teams are home underdogs.  Amazing.  But then on second look, none of the home teams look that good.  Cardinals?  Dolphins?  Chargers? Vikings?  Not sold on any of them.

• I really don’t think the Cardinals would even make it out of the NFC West had Mike Singletary been the 49ers head coach all season.  Plus, they haven’t been playing very well.

• The Dolphins can’t stand up to the mighty Ravens defense.  The TWICE comeback player of the year, Chad Pennington, can only go so far.  Seriously, how does someone win comeback player of the year twice?  You come back once, leave, and come back again?

• The Chargers offense is good, but Indy is experienced and ex-Superbowl Champs. This year’s LT is not the same LT.  I should know… he was on my fantasy team!

• The Eagles are red hot.  The Vikings are not.  And Pat Williams has a broken bone in his right shoulder.  And the Vikings can’t even sell out their first home playoff game in the last 8 years.  And the Vikings haven’t even been to the playoffs since 2004.

Hmm… betting on 4 road teams might be kind of crazy though.  I gotta be missing something here.

Wow, this is like worse than the Raiders.  Being from the Bay Area, I am used to seeing Radiers games blacked out all the time, but even they sell out for the playoffs!  Supposedly, there are still 8000 seats left for the Minnesota Vikings’ game tomorrow.  No love for Adrian Peterson!

If I have to lay down some chips, I’d bet on the Eagles anyway.
