Wild-Card Round Predictions AFC

No. 5 Baltimore Ravens (12-4) at No.4 Kansas City Chiefs (10-6)

I think Matt Cassel will wish he was Tom Brady's back-up again once this is over. The Raiders gave a formula for beating the Chiefs this past weekend: Blitz Matt Cassel. Although Cassel has made great strides in his third season as a starting QB, the Raiders showed that Cassel can't throw with pressure as he completed only 11 out of 33 passes. With no passing attack, the Chiefs lost 31-10. I have a feeling the Ravens imposing defense will have no problem getting to Cassel.

RAVENS 34 CHIEFS 16

No. 6 New York Jets (11-5) at No. 3 Indianapolis Colts (10-6)

Rex Ryan likes seeing feet in action (See: Rex Ryan foot fetish), and he will see plenty of his kickers foot in action. The Jets will hit field goal after field goal, but Mark Sanchez will choke under the red zone pressure and the Jets will not score a touchdown. I heard Peyton Manning does a pretty good job of scoring touchdowns and the Jets defense has not lived up to its pre-season "Hard-Knocks" bill.

INDIANAPOLIS COLTS 24-12

Up Next: NFC
