Donovan and Hayden have given serious consideration to the Wild Card Round of the NFL Playoffs. In the past several years, several Superbowl teams and Superbowl winners have played in the Wild Card Rounds (NYG 08, Pitt 09). Green Bay could be one of those teams this year.
This is probably the most difficult wild card round in recent years to make picks. Even the odds makers are struggling as each game is overly close in the spread. This weeks picks by Donovan and Hayden are as follows:
New England over Baltimore 30-17. Donovan and Hayden don't like this game either way. Brady is very hurt and Welker is out, yet New England, and particularly Tom Brady, find ways to win playoff games. Donovan thinks the Ravens, however, can really run the ball well and if they control the clock this could easily flip the other way, but Hayden thinks Joe Flacco is not playing well and is sticking with New England.
Cincinatti over J-E-T-S 20-13. Donovan thinks Cincinatti was in a funk the last two weeks following Chris Henry's death, and Donovan and Hayden call this an upset win against a Jets team that can run and has a great defense.
Philadelphia over Dallas 24-20 Because Donovan and Hayden hate the Dallas Cowboys. Take the over.
Green Bay over Arizona 31-23 Arizona has only put up more than 31 points once this season. Green Bay has done it five times and four of those in the last six weeks. Whatever the over/under is, take the over in this barn burner.

They win all their money on the over/under bets.
