Well theee out of four is not bad for my picks.


The AFC wildcard teams were all just terrible to behold. Buffalo had no buisnsss being in the playoffs. Jacksonville if they go down by 10 the game looks over.
Bortles being called a game manager is giving him too much credit.
KC is well...KC and Tennessee has a good run game but New England will put 8 men in the box and force fhem to pass which it looks like they cannot.

I could see Jacksonville with a chance if they get a super defensive effort. But I see nothing stopping New England unless their offensive line falls apart like it did in Denver two years ago.

As for the NFC. Who the hell knows. Nick Foles is awful. The Falcons are a bi polar team.

Minnesota looks like perhaps the best team left but Case Keenum?
Why not

I am not counting out New Orleans though. This run game and screen passing game has extended Brees career and they look good on offense.

I will think about my picks a bit more but my early prediction is New England vs Minnesota SB.

If Brady can be protected and not pressured I see him getting his sixth ring.
