Quick Picks

I'm 5-3 this postseason and owe being over .500 to the Giants coming through for me in Green Bay last week. That said, I'm going to take the 49ers over the Giants today and get off of that train. The Giants' running game has struggled at times this year and they're now faced with one of the top running defenses in the league. Unless the Giants just crush Alex Smith, I don't see them stopping the 49ers through the air and I see Vernon Davis causing matchup problems over the middle.
49ers 27 - Giants 23

As for the "Teams Ryan Hates Bowl," I'm going to take the Patriots over the Ravens. I know that my high school could score on the Patriots through the air, but I still have zero faith in Joe Flacco. As much as I hate Tom Brady because he dynasty started with a bad non-fumble call hurting the Raiders followed by cheating, I still think he's a good quarterback. The Ravens only hope is to stop the running game, but that's where the Pats' defense is at least halfway competent.
Patriots 28 - Ravens 22
