Playoff record: 4-4 (Home team in caps)

1. San Diego (+14) over NEW ENGLAND - Perhaps the Chargers could make this interesting for a half. In the end, Tom Brady and Bill Belichick are headed to another Super Bowl. PICK: NEW ENGLAND, 30-17

2. NY Giants (+7 1/2) over GREEN BAY - In what likely will go down as one of the coldest games in NFL history, the Giants will keep it close until the final gun. In the end, Brett Favre will be dancing around Lambeau Field as the Packers book their trip to sunny Arizona. PICK: GREEN BAY, 20-17
