I saw an e-mail tonight from a guy named Geoff Decker of whereIstand.com (via ESPN.com's Mike Sando) who has tracked the playoff predictions of 34 national analysts and writers.
Only four of them -- Newsday's Neal Best, cbssportsline.com's Pete Prisco and Clark Judge, and ESPN's Keyshawn Johnson picked the Cards to beat Carolina.
It was a little better in the Wild Card round, when 11 of 34 picked the Cards to beat the Falcons.
