Two awesome looking matchups and two matchups that read like a who's who of Hot vs. Not.
Bengals over the Texans, as the entire Texans organization seems to be wilting under the lights. I think that continues and the Bengals take another win to make it 4 in a row.
Vikings @ Green Bay is a tough one to call. I agree with the sentiment that it all hinges on Ponder. He has to play well to keep the game competitive. As much as I want to see the Vikings win, I think Ponder falls apart.
Colts over the Ravens, in another matchup of teams going in opposite directions. Unless the Ravens wake up and feed Rice, it's another loss and a curious offseason w/Flacco hitting FA. (I do see an opportunity for the Ravens to win big in this one, though. Homefield advantage at its finest.)
Seattle over Washington in a rout. RGIII is banged up and the Seahawks D is a far different animal than the Cowboys lousy D. Beastmode and a nasty 'Hawks D combine for a very boring finish to wildcard weekend.

I think Peterson puts up another huge game and the Vikings win. Green Bay seems extremely vulnerable to the run game as of late, and there is none better in the league than Minnesota's.
Seattle historically has a horrible record when the travel east of the Mississippi. They also came back down to Earth yesterday and were almost knocked off at home by the Rams. Sam Bradford had a lot of time to throw at times, but didn't have the receiver that could get open. Seattle does have a well balanced team and can burn you in a lot of ways, so they may win the game, but by no means do I see it becoming a blowout.
I agree with your other 2 picks.

Texans, GB, Ravens, Skins. Seahawks have a more complete team but they don't travel well and the Skins are playing at a high level.

The Washington/Seattle game is going to be interesting. The Seahawks have won their last two away games and are on a 5 game win streak in which they've been pretty awesome. The Redskins have won their last 7 and have a run game that might actually be able to be successful on the Seahawks defense.
Both teams are extremely hot atm, I wouldn't be surprised if the team that won this went far in the playoffs.
I'd probably go with the Seahawks jut cause I have more faith in Russell Wilson scoring on the Redskins defense than RG3 scoring on the Seahawks defense. Definitely going to be a good game, though.

So much smack talk from the Seahawks. I didn't know they rolled that way in Seattle.

Maybe you can tackle AD since no one on the Packers seems to be able to.

I like how the url says "one thousand reasons to hate the redskins."
And anyone who didn't know Richard Sherman is a trash (or truth) talker, isn't paying attention.

Simple 2 word phrase for this "man up!"
Plus where else can you get 70000-80000 drunk fans screaming? Seeing how it starts at 7 got tons of time to get lubed up. They stop serving at start of 3rd Q because things got to out of hand last game... total ******** gonna have to stock up before then.

We can tackle him, it's just every time we do he doesn't give a **** and then runs for 20 more yards. :(

Ponder is dealing with elbow bursitis and hasn't taken first team reps all week. If Webb starts at least we'll get to watch a different kind of suck.

Honestly, I'd rather face Ponder(especially if he's less than 100%). Webb can make plays with his feet moreso than Ponder

This. Just cause he can run doesn't mean he's good.
