The New England Patriots will destroy the Denver Broncos . The Baltimore Ravens will prevail over the Houston Texans . Now, let’s finish off the quartet by forecasting the Green Bay Packers vs. the New York Giants… POINTS SCORED IN FIRST MEETING THIS YEAR : Packers: 38 Giants: 35 Edge: Packers NOTABLE AREA FOOD EXPORTS : Packers: Cheddar, sausages Giants: Bagels, Manhattan clam chowder Edge: Packers EMBARRASSING ACTION BY EX-STAR : Packers: Brett Favre texted photos of his penis to an employee Giants: Plaxico Burress shot himself in the thigh Edge: Even OWNED BY : Packers: City of Green Bay Giants: Rooney Mara’s family Edge: Packers CELEBRITY FANS : Packers: Denis Leary, Erin Andrews, David Ortiz (wife is from Wisconsin), Lil Wayne, Jessica Szohr Giants: Jon Bon Jovi, Adam Sandler, Angie Harmon, Busta Rhymes, Mara sisters Edge: Even THE VERDICT : Sorry, Giants fans.

The Packers take this one, 3-0-2. WHO DO YOU THINK WILL WIN?
