Divisional weekend picks

Rams over Packers (if Donald is playing)
Ravens over Bills- I don't think the Bills can stop the run which will be the death of them
Chiefs over Browns
Saints over Bucs

You think the Rams are beating the Packers in Lambaeu?

Bold.

That defense is legit. Ramsey can slow down Adams and I think the front 7 can limit Jones as well. If the Rams can get to 20-24 points then I love their chances

Interesting.

I just don’t trust their offense at all. They look terrible sometimes.

As well as they played defensively on Sunday, Seattle also shots themselves in the foot over and over again. Don’t see Green Bay doing that.

its just crazy in the playoffs. The Rams defense is great thats for sure--- but they made a great QB like Wilson look bad. I think the Packers will win because I think Rodgers and his receivers have great chemistry and should put up some points- but playoffs are just crazy.

Its just a different animal. Its why I give Baker so much credit - to go into Pittsburgh- a place where the Browns lost 17 times in a row-- and play like he did- and then see a perennial MVP candidate like Wilson play like shit--- ya just never know how its going to come out.

Nah, Jared Goof ain't all that. Packers are gonna take that one...

Bills will win because of their defense...

The other 2 I agree with...

Tennis perhaps? They can have a 60 person tournament you can pretty much bank on the same ones making it to the semis and finals every time.

Ehh the finals maybe but usually there is a shocker or in the semis since Andy Murray fell off

This is why I don't gamble. lol

The Chiefs haven't beaten anyone by more than 1 score since the Jets in week 8.

If, as some of the "experts" have suggested, it's because they were coasting and they are able to "flip the switch" now that it's the playoffs. I could see the Chiefs winning handily.

On the other hand, if it's because the league has started to figure them out a bit...then I could see a real close game.

Some of it's on the Browns too. They can't get happy with themselves just because they beat the Steelers.
Knowing Baker’s mentality and what he said after rhe game as the leader of the team...they have more work to do. That is the least of my worries. Mine is getting lit up. The Browns secondary is bad and Kelce might get 200 yards lol...the Browns cannot have key guys out and win this game but they should be back so that is good

Keeping mine the same from what I had from the start:

Packers vs Saints
Bills vs Chiefs

It just isn't fun.


this definitely wasnt a great Ohio State team- but it was pretty good- it was missing a few high impact guys from COVID etc. but whatever

still- Alabama ahd at least 8 of the 10 best players on the field last night- esp. after Sermon got hurt. They are at a different level right now.

if Conklin can get healthy, and we have Bitonio and Ward back we have a shot. Not a whole lot of a shot- but a shot.

the biggest thing will be the d-line will have to get mega pressure using only 4 pass rushers. Garrett- and the rest will have to be on Mahomes the whole time without getting blitzing help.

If they can do that- they have a shot.

the 4 QB's left in the AFC playoffs are all 25 years old or younger.

Allen
Jackson
Mahomes
Baker

those 4 are going to go at it the next few years.
damn, i agree with WiggityWack on Something...

Joe Burrough will be in that group if the Bungles manage to put a team around him...

Herbert's close as well...

They listed the Alabama players who were expected to be 1st round draft picks...if memory serves, there were 8 or 9.

Not NFL draft picks...lol...first rounders.

That's ridiculous.

As opposed to the NFC where 3 of the remaining 4 are 37 and up.

Kyrie sitting out yet again for so called personal reasons. This is a perfect example of why he'll never be a leader on the court. The Nets are already missing KD. This was his opportunity to step up and put the team on his shoulders while the # 1 option can't play. Instead by sitting out he's showing it's still all about him and not about the team.
And remember, KD decided to leave Steph, Klay and Draymond so he could play with Irving.
