How do you guys see this years playoffs playing out? I called 10/11 games correctly last year, but I think this year will be far more unpredictble. Here is what I’ve got so far…
NFC
Round 1
Packers over Vikings
Seahawks over Skins
Round 2
Seahawks over Falcons
Packers over Niners
NFC Championship
Seahawks over Packers
AFC
Round 1
Texans over Bengals
Ravens over Colts
Round 2
Ravens over Broncos
Pats over Texans
NFC Championship
Ravens over Pats
Super Bowl
Ravens over Seahawks
I picked Ravens pre-season to win the super bowl so I guess I have to stick with them, but I actually think the Patriots have the best chance to win it all this year.
^ In your scenario, if the Bengals win their wildcard game, they would play the Broncos, not NE.
NFC
– Wildcard
GB > MIN
SEA > WAS
– Division
SEA > ATL
SF > GB
– Championship
SEA > SF
AFC
– Wildcard
HOU > CIN
IND > BAL
– Division
NE > HOU
DEN > IND
– Championship
NE > DEN
– Super Bowl
NE > SEA. (provided Gronk is healthy)
^ Good catch, I was flip-flopping on that Texans/Bengals game… guess I’ll go with the Texans to make it easier.
Yeah, I think Packers/Seahawks in the NFC, and Broncos/Pats in the AFC.
Ultimately, the Broncos beat the Seahawks in the Super Bowl.
Seahawks are overrated due to their home field advantage granted by geography and time difference.
The Seahawks have the best 12th man in the league. My team used to until we began to suck every year.
I’m rooting for my boy Tony G and the Falcons, though I think the Niners will end up representing the NFC. In the AFC I’d love to see Denver v Pats in the AFC Championship. As much as I hate Denver, Peyton needs another Super Bowl win. Eli having more is unjust.
Still, I’ll go Niners over Donkeys.
Niners can’t play defense without Justin Smith. Seahawks are clearly a better home team than a road team, but have done well on the road recently and are scorching hot (put up 58, 50 and 41 points the last three games that meant anything to them). Ask the Giants how important it is to have positive momentum heading into the playoffs…
I predict one round at a time:
Ravens
Texans
Packers
Skins
Im with ft here, one round at a time:
Bengals
Colts
Skins
Packers
Im lovin the rookies, no homo. Houston is playing like shit, Seattle is overrated, and Rodgers will out-perform Peterson
You must love America’s team! Cowboys fans unite!!!
I want to see the Packers avenge the “Fail Mary” loss in the NFC Championship Game vs. the Seahawks at Lambeau Field. Failing that, some good commercials on February 3rd.
Same, but Seahawks over Skins
Washington over Seattle - RG3 is good, Seattle was 3-5 on the road
Indy over Baltimore - Flacco is not up to the challenge, Indy coach comeback momentum
Green Bay over Minnesota - GB talent too much for Minnesota to overcome
Houston over Cinci - Surely Houston is good enough to win this game (maybe?)
1st Round: Texans, Ravens, Vikings, and Redskins.
I’d be surprised if the Packers end up deep in the playoffs, their D is pretty bad. As usual, I’d think the Patriots should do well.
I’d like to see Niners vs. Broncos with Peyton winning.
I just hope to see Brady vs Manning…for maybe the last time ever. They can only face off in the AFC title game.
Agreed, Pats Broncos is the super bowl for me.
