anyone disagree?...
I disagree, as well... you gotta have some upsets for a list to be credible.
Cowboys, Colts, and Packers are all susceptible to going down.
Historically, teams with great defenses and great running do well in the play-offs... that's like the rule... Romo is unproven in the playoffs and he's interception-prone... P. Manning, other than last year, historically does bad in the playoffs because he can't handle pressure... Favre is solid, but also prone to force throws into double or triple coverage.
Those teams will not really rely on running, so teams will focus most of their defensive schemes on blitzing and pressuring the QBs into making bad plays.
People forget... the playoffs is a whole 'nother season... different animal altogether... you gotta throw out your old playbook and step it up a few levels to win.

if favre play smart football and let our WR's to get the YAC yards, let grant do what he's been doing, dont put the D in short field situations, and go down field when the situation it presents itself, then i have no doubt we will win..
but if favre gets into 05'/06' season mode, feeling that he needs to do everything.. then i think we might dig a whole to deep for ourselves and wont be able to comeback..
yeah honestly, im gonna have to change my mind and say im liking the giants in the cowboys game, giants play like shit in the playoffs lately, but cowboys almost got embarassed by the lions and lost another time or two shortly after, they havent been playing outstanding.
I don't know why but I never have faith in Green Bay. Something about them makes me think that they can be beat by any team. I pick Seattle over them. I hope I'm wrong though, I like Favre.
