Yesterday, we posted our Free AFC Championship Picks. Today, we're handing out our Free NFC Championship Picks between the 49ers and Giants.
49ers -2 1/2 over the Giants
Over 42
The 49ers impressive season, anchored by Justin Smith and the defense, will continue on to Super Bowl XLVI (46), where they'll face the New England Patriots for the right to hoist the Lombardi Trophy.
Why, you ask?
Both teams are coming off emotional victories last week, and you're always wise to ride the hot hand at this point in the playoffs. In this case, it's hard to determine just who that is. It's clear which team is better, though. The Giants have been clicking on all cylinders and are playing with confidence, but the 49ers defense is one of the best in NFL history, and we've seen that Alex Smith stay out of the way just enough to let the D put the team in positions to win games.
Can the Giants pull off another road upset on the way to the Super Bowl? What do you think, Mike Singletary?
Can our Free NFL Picks rebound from a dismal playoff stretch thus far? Cue Mike Singletary.
