After correctly picking 1 out of the 2 games yesterday, thanks New Orleans, I am going to nail both games today.
Texans @ Ravens
1:00 pm EST (CBS)
This should be a pretty good game. The key to this game is Ravens running back Ray Rice. If Rice and the Ravens can run the ball successfully today, they will win this game.
The Texans run defense will be tested today. If they can shut down Rice and force Flacco to beat them in the air, it bodes well for the Texans.
On the flip side, Texans running back Arian Foster will be key for the Texans offense. The less of the load that is placed on rookie quarterback TJ Yates, the better off the Texans are. If Foster can get going today, I look for the Texans to control the clock and wear down the Ravens defense.
Brockbusta's pick: Ravens 24 - Texans 14
Giants @ Packers
4:30 pm EST (FOX)
This is a playoff rematch from their 2007 NFC Championship. These two teams met in a classic earlier this season in New York.
After the Giants tied the game at 35 with a minute left, Aaron Rogers led the Packers down the field on like 3 plays and Mason Crosby kicked the game winning field goal.
Most people thought this would be the best game of the weekend, however, it will be tough to top the Saints/49ers game from yesterday.
The Giants defense can definitely stop the Packers, but the question is, will they?
Brockbusta's pick: Packers 35 - Giants 28
