NFL Conference Championship Picks

Time for the weekly coin flip....er.....picks!


Chicago (-2) over New Orleans: Can the miracle season for the Saints stay alive? It will be tough because they have to travel to take on the mighty Bears. Rex Grossman did well in his last game. How will he respond against the Saints? I'd love to pick the Saints in this game because I'm pulling for them this postseason. But the home-field advantage added with the Bears' ferocious defense plus the fact that the Bears are only favored by 2 makes me have to go with Chi-Town.

New England (+3) over Indianapolis: Indy has never beaten the Tom Brady/Bill Belichick led Patriots in the playoffs. It won't happen this year either. The Colts' defense has looked strong so far. It will break this game. Even though this is Indy's home field I think this is an easy pick for the Patriots.
