Arizona Cardinals vs. New Orleans Saints Live Streaming Online

nflAfter an incredible offensive display last week against the Green Bay Packers, Arizona now gets a chance to take its show on the road when its faces the New Orleans Saints on Saturday, January 16, 2010 in the divisional round of the NFL playoffs. The game is slated to kick off at 4:30 P.M.

Against Green Bay, Kurt Warner played one of his best, if not the best game of his professional career. His numbers speak for themselves, as he completed 29 of 33 attempts for 379 yards and five TDs. His passer rating was an unheard of 154.1, and his 88 percent pass completion is one of the highest ever in postseason play.

The supporting cast of receivers was equally impressive, as they pulled down one circus catch after another. WR Steve Breaston stepped in for the injured Anquan Boldin and caught seven balls for 125 yards and one TD. (more…)

Baltimore Ravens Vs. Pittsburgh Steelers NFL Week16 Predictions

nflNFL Week16 Picks

The Steelers needed all 503 of quarterback Ben Roethlisbergers’ passing yards, as well as all 60 minutes of alotted time, to win against the Green Bay Packers last Sunday. Roethlisberger fired a 19-yard touchdown pass to the extreme front corner of the end zone to WR Mike Wallace as time expired to defeat Green Bay 37-36, abruptly ending the Steelers’ five game losing streak.

Pittsburgh comes into the next game against Baltimore with a feeling that has been absent since Mid-November, due to the fact that they have won a game.

Baltimore thoroughly dominated the Chicago Bears this past week, winning 31-7. In that outing, quarterback Joe Flacco was spectacular, completing 21 of 29 passes for 234 yards and a career high four touchdowns. The Ravens have made a hard push for the playoffs as winner of three of their last four games. Currently Baltimore is slated in the final wild-card spot in the AFC playoffs. (more…)

Seattle Seahawks Vs. Green Bay Packers NFL Week16 Predictions

nflNFL Week 16 Picks

Essentially, the Green Bay Packers could guarantee themselves a spot in the playoffs for the first time in the post-Brett Favre era Sunday. Needing just one win in either of the final two weeks of the year, they get their best shot this week when they host the Seattle Seahawks.

Seattle, losers in four of their last six, are on the heels of probably it’s worst loss of the year, falling to 24-7 to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last week. Matt Hasselbeck was picked off four times by the league’s ninth-rated pass defense, and his offense was 0-for-2 in the red zone.

For those reasons alone, the Seahawks would be a logical double-digit underdog, for those of you who do any NFL Betting, but pair it with what’s on the line for Green Bay and it’s the third-biggest spread of the week. Just a point off New Orleans’ 14 1/2-point spread against Tampa Bay, the Packers are 13 1/2-point favorites, against Seattle in the 2009 NFL Week 16 Betting Odds, with an over/under of 41. (more…)

Packers improve playoff prospects behind Rodgers’ three touchdowns

nflThe Detroit Lions used to take a lot of pride in playing on Thanksgiving.

Lately, the Lions have been getting embarrassed when the nation tunes in to watch them.

Aaron Rodgers matched a career high with three touchdown passes and Charles Woodson grabbed two of his team’s four interceptions, giving the Green Bay Packers a 34-12 win over Detroit.

The Lions have lost six straight games on the holiday, setting a franchise record, by an average of 23.2 points and eight of nine in the showcase game. The latest loss was an emotional setback for Detroit (2-9) four days after Matthew Stafford’s gutsy play capped its biggest comeback win since 1957. (more…)

Green Bay Packers Vs. Detroit Lion Week12 NFL Match Preview

nflIn the thick of the NFC playoff race, the Green Bay Packers are preparing to play the rest of the season without two stalwarts on their formidable defense.

While the Detroit Lions don’t have the same postseason aspirations, they might have to play this Thanksgiving Day game without the reigning NFC player of the week.

The banged-up Packers will rely on a makeshift defense Thursday when they try to continue their dominance over a Lions team that will likely be without Matthew Stafford, who was injured while leading his team to exciting comeback win last week.

Green Bay (6-4) ranks first in the NFL in total defense, allowing an average of 295.8 yards, but that unit took two major hits when cornerback Al Harris and linebacker Aaron Kampman were hurt on separate plays in the second half of Sunday’s 30-24 win over San Francisco.

Without those two veterans in the lineup, the Packers struggled to shut down the 49ers, allowing 21 second-half points. (more…)
