I was only 2 out of 2 last week. I still don't know what the safety for Denver was thinking letting Jacoby Jones get behind him for Baltimore's game tying touchdown but that's history and for today's games I see two games that will clearly show who the best teams in their respective conferences are.
49ers 28 Falcons 14 (2). The score could be worse. San Francisco is too strong and both the offensive and defensive line and have played a much stronger schedule than Atlanta.
Patriots 27 Ravens 20 (1). I wouldn't be surprised if New England doesn't win by two touchdowns. Even though Brady has struggled against Baltimore in the past the Raven defense is wearing down fast and the Patriots hurry up offense will be too much for them to handle.

playoffs continue
This week has two very easy picks and two difficult ones as the playoffs continue. I was 4 for 4 last week so here we go.
Patriots 28 Texans 14 (4). Houston's defense will play better than they did the last time they played the Patriots but Matt Schaub has been regressing for the last 5 weeks now. I did pick Houston to go the the superbowl before the season started so either way I can't lose on this one.
Broncos 24 Ravens 10 (3). Peyton Manning leading Denver's offense with the help of the mile high altitude will take all the energy out of the Ravens.
Packers 21 49ers 20 (2). Tough one but even though Aaron Rodgers has been sacked almost more than any other quarterback he should have just enough time to make the big plays since Justin Smith is playing with a torn tricep. If Smith were healthy I would pick San Francisco
Falcons 24 Seattle 20 (1). The toughest game to pick. Everyone knows about Atlanta's failure to win in the playoffs in recent years but Seattle lost their best pass rusher Chris Clemmons last week and this is the deciding factor. Matt Ryan will have time with multiple offensive weapons to win another game close at home like they did for most of the regular season

playofff
week 1 of the playoffs have the toughest games to pick. I almost wish the Cowboys would have beaten the redskins because they would have been destroyed by Seattle. All these games will be close and below are my picks
Houston 20 Bengals 17 (1). Houston is fading but the Bengals aren't quite experienced enough to win this game.
Packers 24 Vikings 21 (2). Adrian Peterson will get 35 carries for 210 yards but I'm counting on Christian Ponder to turn it over the few times he is asked to throw the ball.
Seattle 24 Redskins 27 (4). With RG3 not at 100% the Redskins will struggle against the Seahawks who have the best secondary in the NFL.
Ravens 24 Colts 21 (3). Andrew Luck has been great but on the road in Baltimore will be a little too much for him to handle on his own. Ray Rice should have a big day running the ball
