Steelers, and Patriots are the top 2 seeds in the AFC
Eagles, and Vikings are the 2 top seeds in the NFC
Saints host the Panthers
Rams host Falcons
Jags host Bills
Chiefs host Titans
First time this century that the Bills have made the playoffs. Ravens choked away their playoffs.
Now who do I feel wins next week?
I'll say Rams beat Falcons in a close game
Panthers upset the Saints. My upset game
Chiefs sqweek out a win vs the Titans,
Jags beat the Bills due to the game being played in Florida.
I freely expect to be wrong in either AFC Wild Card game
I had a bad week. I freely admit that I ain't watched the NFL all season. Due to them protesting the National Anthem. But, supposedly it ain't about patriotism.

Jags vs. Bills...you know, like everyone predicted

that game set NFL quarterbacking back 80 years. Not even 250 yards passing combined between 3 quarterbacks.
But, I did predict that Jacksonville would win. Hell I almost called it a tie. I expected it to be this bad.
Rams vs Falcons. I was not sold on Rams. Wade Phillips showed that Playoffs and him mean it's time for Wade to fail. Music City Miracle anyone? LOL
AFC Divisional round
Patriots hosting Titans
Steelers hosting Jags
Eagles hosting Falcons
Vikings hosting Saints
I wonder if the Gloryholers will play next weekend. Oh wait. They were Eliminated by the Philadelphia Football Eagles.

As I do every year since our squad doesn't make it that far, I'm rooting for the AFC. No other NFC team can represent for me.

I know it's going to take probably jesus, thor, santa, hulk and a bunch of others to take down the big dogs like Pats and Steelers but I'm rooting for the Jags to go all the way.

Jags beat the Steelers earlier in the year but that wasn't playoff steelers, I'm sure the Jags won't have a chance.

Jags might, but their problem is Bortles is not really a good quarterback.

Titans vs Patriots. Well we know the Patriots are not above bribing refs, and other croocked stuff. But, they are playing the Titans who I hate almost as much as the gloryholers. So, I'll pick the Patriots. Patriots not just winning, but dominating the Titans. 35-7
Jags vs Steelers. Now if the Jags has a lagit NFL quarterback I would pick them. But, last week Bortles put quarterbacking back almost 50 years by that lack of quality. Steelers I'm picking.
I was wrong about this game. Jags won.
Falcons vs Eagles. Eagles Defense should cover the Foles problem.
Well I was right about this one. Eagles 15. Falcons 10.
Saints vs Vikings. Potentially best game of the week. Can Keenam keep his "story book" season going? I'm picking the Vikings in a shoot out. Vikes won. I had trouble all week trying to pick this game. Had it been a regular season game. I would have said too close to call. Vikes won on a game ending TD pass that was completed with no time left on the clock.

all things considered, you go with the better QB but a week off and a really good D need to be factored in as well

Drew Brees could end up with another Super bowl

Not really disagreeing but what is your rationale for the Eags? Their D has looked much worse after losing Wentz and ATL's is pretty good - and they easily have the better QB.

I totally agree about Ryan vs Foles - HOWEVER - Ryan has not been as good as last season + I expect Foles & the Eagles D to play well enough

be great if the Falcons could put the Eagles away

That would be a great game if the Saints played the Patriots. In fact it potentially could be one of the best ever.

AFC Championship game Patriots hosting Jags
NFC Championship game Eagles hosting Vikings
We know how the Patriots roll. Expect some crocked things to happen. Patriots win.
Eagles vs Vikings. If the weather is a factor, and I expect it to be. Vikings play in a dome stadium. Eagles should win.

What a horrible day to be a fan of the New Orleans Saints.

1 bad play should not define a season. The Saints had a great season. And, at half time were trailing by 17-0. Brees didn't fumble that 1 time. Saints win. Shame that the game ended on a missed tackle thou.
