Playoff Predictions (1 Viewer)

Yes would love to see the Vikings win as well. Anything can happen in the NFL. Hoping that Seattle and NE get eliminated quickly. Thinking a KC vs. AZ would be a great SB

I'd prefer KC/Carolina, having lived in both states (Kansas, not Missouri) and friends are fans of both.

Now I'm thinking Arizona over KC.

KC > Hou

Cin > Pit

Was > GB

Sea > Min

KC > Den

NE > Cin

AZ > Was

Sea > Car

KC > NE

AZ > Sea

AZ > KC

Seems like least predictable season ever.

Some things I believe.

*The two best teams in the NFL right now will meet in round two of the playoffs, Seattle at Carolina.

*The three best teams in the NFL all play in the NFC

*I believe KC and Pittsburgh, right now, are the two best teams in the AFC. But not overly confident of either winning today and that's how I feel about the AFC in a nutshell.

*I might be blinded by my rooting interest.

Predictions:

KC over Houston

Pitt over Cincy

Seattle over Minny

Skins over Green Bay

KC over NE

Pitt over Denver

Carolina over Seattle

Arizona over Skins

Pitt over KC

Carolina over Arizona

Pittsburgh over Carolina

Since a number of people are taking the Steelers to at least get to the SB, I looked into how much I want to buy into that. (I have them losing to NE in the AFCCG).

This season with Ben at QB, in road games PIT went 3-3 with a scoring differential of +16 points. Last year, with a similar roster, they went 5-3 with a differential of +9 points. Combining last year and this year, with Ben at QB, PIT went 8-6 with a +25 point scoring differential. Compare that to them playing at home with Ben the past two seasons (11-4 with a +129 scoring differential).

The last time they beat three 10 win teams in a row on the road was 2005 (when they won the SB as a wildcard).

Agreed with your beliefs but add that Brady can put his team on his shoulders and beat any team. The pats scare me but I can't put them in to win the conference.

I think the Steelers either lose this week or play in the super bowl.

Last year, injuries didn't throw the league into haywire. Those stats from last season are useless.

 

[BigSteelThrill]

KC over CAR

hey now!

 

[Riversco]

Chiefs over Texans (duh)

Steelers over Bengals

Seahawks over Vikings

Packers over Redskins

Broncos over Steelers

Patriots over Chiefs

Panthers over Packers

Seahawks over Cardinals

Broncos over Patriots

Panthers over Seahawks

Panthers over Broncos

 

[Riversco]

The #1 seeds have met in the last two super bowls. I just picked it to happen again. Bad idea?

 

[Riversco]

Actually you know what? The Broncos QB situation is so screwed up, I can't pick them to beat the Patriots.

Panthers over Patriots in the super bowl.

Not at all. HFA gives those terrific defenses the added crowd noise bonus.

 

[fred_1_15301]

Chiefs over Texans (duh)

Steelers over Bengals

Seahawks over Vikings

Packers over Redskins

Broncos over Steelers

Patriots over Chiefs

Panthers over Packers

Seahawks over Cardinals

Broncos over Patriots

Panthers over Seahawks

Panthers over Broncos

It's funny how many people have no clue how the seeding works. Panthers/Seahawks NFC championship game is impossible.

 

[Johnnymac]

Ok now for this coming weekend:

Steelers over Broncos (only if Big Ben is ok)

Cardinals over my Packers (I want to pick my team and would not be shocked if we won, but have to be realistic)

Patriots over KC

Seahawks over Panthers

 

[The General]

This weekend:

KC

Cinn

Sea

GB

Round 2 going all home teams:

AZ

Denver

NE

Carolina

 

[devouredbychaos]

Patriots

Broncos

Seahawks

Green Bay

And the moans and groans are heard worldwide as these are the last 4 teams anyone wants to see advance, aside from their respective fan bases.

 

[ShamrockPride]

Who's Vegas have in the Hawks/Cats game?

Who's Vegas have in the Hawks/Cats game?

Carolina -3

 

[fred_1_15301]

Patriots

Broncos

Seahawks

Green Bay

I'm sure a lot of people would love to see the Broncos advance

 

[FUBAR]

Carolina vs Pittsburgh

If Ben or brown aren't healthy I'll need to change this as Pittsburgh will lose without those guys.

But if they are healthy

Carolina

Pittsburgh

KC

Arizona

Denver v Arizona

 

[Arodin]

Seems like this year I'm finding a lot more "pick 'em" type games deeper into my bracket than usual, so I'll probably embarrass myself with these predictions, but here goes:

KC over Hou

Pitt over Cin (heart pick)

Wash over GB

Sea over Min

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

Den over Pitt

NE over KC

Car over Sea

Ari over Wash

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

NE over Den

Car over Ari

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

NE over Car

I don't think you'll do well for the simple reason that you do nothing but pick favourites. Honestly, it just doesn't happen very often.

Betcha one of KC or PIT disappoints tomorrow, and I betcha for SURE one of those home teams loses in the divisional round. I don't see any way NE, DEN and CAR all win. They're all very suspect teams IMO despite records. Particularly Carolina against an experienced Seattle team, and Denver with OldManManning.

7 of 8 so far and I'm still fairly comfortable with my remaining selections.Looks like going chalk when the games look close to call was a viable plan this year after all.
