I like your reasoning behind your picks. However, I'm going with Atlanta for some F'ed up reason. How's that for gambling? I will also take Den and give the points, Min to cover and Jax to cover in an Under game. I think the weather will force them to run, which keeps the clock moving, and lowers the total score.
As for Ov/Un in INTs, man...You gotta be a real junkie to go there.

Out!

Zona +15.5 to cover Vikings......Vikings stumble out of the blocks
Jets -7.5 over Jaguars....Jags need more than Fred Taylor
Atlanta -3.5 over 49ers....49ers ease up and lose
Broncos -13.5 over Dolphins....Fish in deep freeze

Bubba's picks:

Atl-SF: Total Passes Completed UNDER 42.5 (Both teams want to run the ball and control the clock)

Denver-Miami: Miami +13.5 (Just too many pts. for this Bronconian offense)

Jets-Jags: Total Pts OVER 44.5 (Looks low for a Vinny-Brunell matchup. Too many potential fire power to be low scoring. Special teams will likely score 14 pts)

Minn-Az: Total Field Goals OVER 3.5 (That's all AZ's scoring - fg's)

Cheers for 4 for 4 this week...

Atl -3.5 (SF Def will lose the game)
Den/Mia >3.5 sacks (the veteran qb's just don't run like they used to)
Jac +7.5 (Jets may win, but not more than 7)
Min/Az over 52.5 (AZ can't run the ball...thus they will, pass to keep up with Min...high scoring)

Best of Luck,

Where'd He Go?

Round 2:

SF + 3.5 (Chandler goes down; 49ers win outright)
Denver -13 1/2 (I wonder if Shannon would lay the points)
Jets -7 1/2 (If Brunell was healthy; I'd feel different)
Minny -15 1/2 (Cardinals need to get to Randall early)

I like all the favorites. Might get bit by the +15.5 Cards, but I still think the Vikes Defense will be amplified by their crazed fans screaming the in the dome.

The picks:
Atlanta -3.5 (hoping Reeves isnt a distraction)
Denver -13.5 (looking for Shanahans team to rebound from couple weeks ago)
New York -7.5 (the Jags offense looks pathetic with Brunell hurt)
Minnesota -15.5 (thats alot of points for a playoff game!)

My picks are: Atlanta (+12.5) & Denver (-10.5)

In the Minnesota/Atlanta game, I also like the OVER for rushing yards and the UNDER for points total.
