It's all aboutthe HEART

[baby johnson]

This time of year, the NFL playoffs tend to be a very difficult handicapping endeavor.
it's not generally the most taleneted team which advances but more often the team which plays with more heart!

This past weekend prooved this as Minny beat New Orleans and Tennesse taking care of New England. One could even see the heart displayed by Seattle beating a beat up Philly team and Houston showing heart and grit vs a more talented Buffalo team (IMHO)

The upcoming weekend has me leaning toward: Seattle +3.5 and ML vs Green Bay due to Wilson and coach Carrol having the upper hand vs Rogers and rookie coach LaFluer

Other matchups are more intruiging and more complicated, but Tennesse looks tempting with their defense, QB, running game and coaching pedigree combined with the added 7+points vs an unprooven QB...but more research is needed here

Other tilts include: Houston vs KC and Minny vs SF (leaning toward Minny), but can dogs continue to cover all year long?

Opinions welcome

I agree.......I was talking to my friend today and I said.......just pick the team who seems more physical and can get the 2 or 3 yards when needed. i think the Houston game was kind of flukey but Seattle, Minnesota and Tennesee seemed like the more physical teams when watching the games.
