To help the Bruno Boys Nation win FREE PRIZES, we bring to you the AFC/NFC Championship Round Kicker Rankings.

--------------------

1. David Akers (Philadelphia Eagles) @ Arizona

David Akers had his share of struggles during the regular season, but he came into his own and kicked very well down the stretch for the Eagles. He has been the best kicker in these playoffs hitting all seven field goal attempts to go with four extra points. Akers’ 25 points leads all kickers in the playoffs, and he should be considered a must start option this week in what should be a high-scoring game in the dessert.

Point Projection: 10 points

--------------------

2. Neil Rackers (Arizona Cardinals) vs. Philadelphia

Neil Rackers hit four of five field goal attempts during the divisional round, with his only miss coming from 53 yards. He has added seven extra points in two games and has totaled 19 points thus far in the playoffs. Rackers should get plenty of kicking attempts as the offensive driven Cardinals try to earn their first trip to the Super Bowl.

Point Projection: nine points

--------------------

3. Matt Stover (Baltimore Ravens) @ Pittsburgh

Matt Stover has not missed a kick in these playoffs, but he does not get the attempts that some of the other kicking options get. He has still managed four field goals and 16 total points in two games. Stover is still a solid kicking option that is available at a lower price. This game will likely be a defensive struggle that could come down to a battle of field goals.

Point Projection: eight points

--------------------

4. Jeff Reed (Pittsburgh Steelers) vs. Baltimore

Jeff Reed did not attempt a field goal in the Steelers victory over the San Diego Chargers last week, but he did hit all five extra point attempts. Pittsburgh was able to score touchdowns on five possessions in the divisional round, but that will likely change this week against the Ravens.

Reed has proven to be good under pressure this season and when these two teams meet it's usually a close game that often comes down to the final possession.

Point Projection: eight points
