Two games today, two tomorrow.  Rematch weekend.

Jets @ Bengals-  Jets seem to be the team du jour right now despite winning their last two games with teams who had packed it in.  Bengals first playoff game since the Palmer injury game against the Steelers.

Eagles @ Cowboys- Heated division rivalry in the playoffs.  Will Romo and the 'Boys fold again or is this year different?

Ravens @ Patriots-  The one many of us will be watching tomorrow.  See Bahku's game thread.

Packers @ Cardinals-  Cardinals look flat and limping into the playoffs.  Of course, the same could've been said last year and they made it to the Super Bowl.  I don't see a repeat this time and like the Packers chances. 

Thoughts?  Predictions?  Analysis?

I really think the Cowboys will choke again ... it's what Romo does best, and Philly is too unpredictable for them, I feel ... too "scrambly". Gotta go with Jets, Eagles, Pats, and Packers, (the Patriots pick is a wishful one, obviously, not necessarily what I'd put a lot of money on) ... I think the closest will be Packers/Cardinals, and I wouldn't be surprised if it went the other way.

Didn't really expect to see Charles Barkley on the Football in America pre-game show.

Pretty funny conversation with Dungy and Harrison debating football players versus basketball players.

Bengals starting with great field position.

Saw a game at Paul Brown Stadium a few years back.  Great stadium to catch a football game.

Yeah looking really good for the bengals, the running game of the Jets has been absolutly shut down so far.

Great choich by the Bengals staff to rest key defensive players, seems to be paying off.

Yeah, it definitely seems to be paying off. 

Edwards let a sure TD go through his hands.  Typical Braylon Edwards for you.

Palmer looks a little shaky out there with his throws but the Bengals is able to move the ball on this tough Jets D.

And, of course, I jinx it and the Bengals D gives up a long TD run.  :P

Great game so far, Jets offensive and defensive line are just winning most of the battles right now. Benson is having to fight and evade just to get any yards at all.

Yeah, the Jets definitely appear to be the more physical squad so far.

Have to wonder if its same old Bungles right now?  Gotta feel for those fans.

The Bengals need to get something going on this drive.

Injuries really have sapped the strength of the Bengals overall. I'd have liked to see this squad healthy late, oh well life in the NFL.
