It appears that the home teams are all expected to win this weekend. Not a surprise. But I expect at least one upset. Now who could that be?
So we have The Titans at KC....sure KC should be favoured. But KC better look more like the good team vs the one that struggled near the end of the season. My take is this, if KC does not get a reasonable lead, this one will become a toss up.
Atlanta at LA (Rams) should be fun! I expect LA to be alive and kicking hard. Atlanta can look back and consider how they got in with a key win, and the fact they "should" have won last year's trophy. But they re still not the O team of last year, and LA has so much youth, energy and talent. If Atlanta has a slow start, this one could actually get lopsided.
Buffalo at Jacksonville would be interesting.....if McCoy is healthy. The Jax need to prove to us all that they are legit, and that might be proven with an easy win. At least Buffalo has to be motivated by even making the playoffs. But they need McCoy, and more.
Then the big one....Carolina at New Orleans. I think this one could be close. Carolina has a lot of talent and experience. But I suspect Brees and company will make some noise on Sunday, and showcase a team that finally has more than an O to guide its course. I'm taking NO....but again, this one could be close if Newton has a better day, and The Panthers' D cause some TOs.
~~~~~~~~
In the bigger picture.....again I plead, someone has to knock off The Pats, and soon!! If I was a betting person, I'd lay down some cash on this team (like 'em or not). I just don't trust The Steelers on the road, and I am not sure anyone else has enough to compete in Foxborough.
No, hate to say it, but my only "logical" hope is that they get beaten in The SB.....which is the more likely of all scenarios, given the talent in The NFC. But hey, The Pats would be favoured no matter who ends up representing that conference. But yes, teams like LA, Minnesota, New Orleans and maybe Philly (who are not nearly as good minus Wentz), have a shot at the crown.
Again, I sure hope The Pats get knocked off sooner than later, because they will be a load if they get on a playoff roll. OK....a new Year's wish.....
Anyone but The Pats in The SB will make the season much better for me.....:thumb:
