So much for that Cardinals' Super Bowl 44 gear for the winner! With the Cardinals getting thumped by the Saints steadily and frequently (like most Cardinal-fan's heads the following morning) to end the Cardinals' playoff run so early, a journey to the Third World won't even turn up any Cardinals Super Bowl gear. Three "Negative Nancys" picked the Saints with SenSurround's 28-24 prediction being the closest. Most participants fared better with the Colts' victory with SenSurround and StuckinColorado each earning 40 Pick'em Points. Needless to say, no one was very close on the Cowboys/Vikings game due to the Cowboys' lack of scoring; StuckinColorado was once more the "closest" with his 24-13 prediction (30 Pick'em Points). Only two of us picked the Jets to stun the Chargers and set-up a rematch of Super Bowl III for the AFC Championship game, with JoeCB1991's 23-17 prediction being worth the most (41) Pick'em Points. With three more games to go, there are just 16 in the mix with DaCards leading the pack with 146 Pick'em Points. Anything is possible with a really close prediction vaulting anyone into the lead if the leaders choke. Make sure you have your picks in before the 3 PM ET kick-off of the Jets/Colts game.
