Ravens @ Broncos

Joe Flacco and the Ravens ended the Colts season on a 24-9 points win in Ray Lewis' last game in M&T Bank Stadium. Now, the Ravens travel to face the rested #1 seed Denver Broncos. Peyton Manning is probably the best regular season QB in NFL history, but hasn't done as well in the post season. I think this year, he will change that perception. This will be Ray Lewis' last game if the Ravens lose. I think this one could turn into somewhat of a rout by the end of it.

Winner: Broncos

Texans @ Patriots

Coming off of a first round bye, the Patriots are more than ready for their game against Houston. The Texans won an ugly game last week against he Bengals and with a win, could make their first conference championship game in franchise history. The problem is, Brady is getting tired of going far and missing the ultimate goal for so many years and it has been years since his last Super Bowl victory. Also, I think that both Matt Schaub and Andre Johnson are both overrated. We saw what the Patriots could do to Houston in their 42-14 win in Week 14 on Monday Night Football.

Winner: Patriots
