Another year, another set of playoff games. In some ways it's amazing that we got here, bloodied but unbowed. I hope the covid is not a factor in the playoffs, but it may well be. Yes, I am disappointed that The Broncos have not made the playoffs since our SB win, but life goes on.
With just one "bye" in each conference, KC and The Pack have a real edge. Then again, home field is not as big a factor as in past. At one point this season, I can't remember how many weeks in, but the visiting teams actually had a better record than the home teams. The fans are missed!!
Saturday
Indy @ Buffalo - I believe Buffalo is on as good a run as anyone, and I do not rule out the chances of them making it to The SB
LARams @ Seattle - I am not overly keen on either team at this point, but someone's gotta win, and if Goff is unhealthy, Seattle is the pick. But I will say that Wilson's play has dropped off since earlier in the season. But winning games late is still one of his strengths.
Tampa @ Washington - I like Washington's D in this one, but Smith has to be more effective. If he can amass some pass game, and Gibson has another good game, we might see an upset. But right now it's Tampa. Tom and his receivers are tuning up for the playoffs.
Sunday
Baltimore @ Tennessee - I am really looking forward to this game. A rematch of sorts, but this time The Titans should be favoured. If Henry can't be slowed down, The Ravens are in some trouble. But I also like the way Tannehill can step it up, and include some pretty good receivers. All in all, this might be a last team scores wins game.
Chicago @ New Orleans - The Bears are not bad, but as long as Brees gets some RB help, I expect them to win by 10 or more points.
Cleveland @ Pittsburgh - Back to back games, but different rosters. I do not like the way The Steelers played in the latter part of the year, but I expect Roethlisberger and Watt to be the difference. Cleveland can change the outcome by forcing Ben into another sub par game, as we witnessed down the stretch re: his performances. He has to have a run game, because throwing 50 or more passes is not the Steelers' way.
The End Game
I see KC and Buffalo in a fight to the AFC finish. I would not be shocked if Allen and company beat them. Then again, Mahomes seems to have another gear.
I like The Pack in The NFC, but I sure wish they had Bahktiari. They won yesterday, and looked good, but I saw more pressure from Rodgers' left side than all year. I think The Saints could still get to The Dance. After that it will be on the shoulders of some QBs - Wilson and Brady. They will have to be at their best.
