Baltimore Ravens (+3) vs. Pittsburgh Steelers – The Ravens won in Pittsburgh on a last second play when they were without Ben Roethlisberger, and Pittsburgh returned the favor after a game changing sack and forced fumble by S Troy Polamalu in Baltimore. Here comes Round 3.

The Ravens 12-4 record was deceptive because they struggled offensively throughout, but they appear to have put things together after their 30-7 shellacking of the Chiefs last week. Look for another close, hard fought game, as they always are, but one which Baltimore pulls out at the end.

This is a good money line bet at +150.

Green Bay Packers (+2.5) vs. Atlanta Falcons – The good news for the Falcons is they earned the top seed in the NFC. The bad news is they get the Packers, who now field the most complete team left in the NFC Playoffs. The addition of RB James Starks has helped make Green Bay’s offense balanced, and ultra dangerous.

Homefield advantage aside, the Packers D is peaking, and matchup well with Atlanta’s offense. And offensively, expect Aaron Rodgers and Co. to have great success against the Falcons  secondary.

When the clock hits triple zeros, we expect Green Bay to pull out a minimum three-point victory on Sunday.

They’re at +120, which is also attractive on the money line.
