Rex Ryan would have you believe his Jets should be favorites to go all the way, but I wouldn't be surprised to see the Bengals do what they can to force the Sanchise to struggle in his playoff debut. The Bengals are currently 3 point favorites and I think they'll be able to cover that. They were laying down last week in a meaningless game for them, and I don't see that happening this week. The Jets could certainly spring the upset, but I just don't see that happening. There's also the fact that I just don't like anything about the Jets.
Philadelphia Eagles (11-5) at Dallas Cowboys (11-5)

A week ago the Cowboys dismantled the Eagles, and will be looking for a repeat performance. The Eagles were already in the playoffs before last week, but a win would have given them the division and a first round bye, so clearly they had something to play for. Instead, they laid themselves a big fat egg. The Cowboys sit as a 4 point favorite, so clearly the bookies don't have a clear idea of what to expect. The Eagles have been a very up and down team, while the Cowboys have to be hoping Tony Romo can figure out how to find some success in the postseason.
