Ok pretty simple, which matchup do you want to see most and why?
I am favoring Philadelphia vs. Pittsburgh. I think that would be a great game. The Eagles won their meeting earlier this season, but that means nothing.
The rest:
Philly vs. Baltimore could be really good. Baltimore beat Philly earlier this year, in the game that McNabb was benched. Resulted in a nice run for Philly. Defense vs. Defense, Baltimore has the better D, but Philly has the better offense, this would be a good game too.
Arizona vs. Pittsburgh and Arizona vs. Baltimore - I don't think either of these would be as good. Seems like Arizona is playing with borrowed time. Their D has stepped up, and they have some of the best receivers in football (if Boldin can go). I think Arizona could beat Baltimore, but I don't think they could beat Pittsburgh.
The Phillies are everything I hoped the Mets would be - a team that plays their fucking asses off for all 27 outs. They're never out of a game. Solly 10/20/09
I'd probably want to see Philly/Baltimore the most. Ed Reed has been on fire lately, and being a Cowboys fan, I'd love to see Reed pick off McNabb a few times.

I'm going ARZ/BAL. I hate three of the four teams involved, so I'm actually pulling for the Cards to win it all. And as much as I dislike Lewis and Reed, they're both amazing, and they deserve a shot at another Super Bowl. Also, it'd be cool to see a rookie QB with a chance to win one, and we'd be in for two weeks of talk about what Warner was doing the year Flacco was born (likely to be on the list: considering retirement).

Seconded.
Plus I have this silly bet I make before pre-season every year for the last 6 years. I bet that the previous year's Super Bowl Champs go all the way, the Chargers go all the way, and the Cardinals go all the way. Why the Cards? Because their odds of winning the SB are always so very low. They're kind of like the Clippers of the NFL to me, which is oddly endearing.

Ed Reed is the god damn truth. I'm picking Philly/Balt as well. The Steelers are the best all around team. The best defense, and the most polished offense of the 4 team, but I wouldn't bet/wanna play against the Raven's Defense right now. They are putting that hot sauce on people.
But then again, this is coming from a guy who's favorite team growing up was the Lions. After Barry left, I was a man without a country.

GO CARDINALS!
After a moment I realized these were 3 separate bets, not a deranged trifecta.
Then again, a 3-way dance football game could be kind of fun.
Yeah, I know this place pretty good. I went to law school here.[My5:]

Pittsburgh & Arizona because I hate Philadelphia & Baltimore.
Honestly though when the Giants, Colts, Dolphins lost I really have no teams left I like at all. Pitt & Arizona is what I'm rooting for and also what I'm prediciting. I predicted last week that the Giants would blow it against the Eagles and then the Eagles will be hyped up as the favorites only to lose in the NFC Championship. Half is right already. We'll see about the other half.
