NFL Divisional Round Predictions

What are your predictions for this weekend's NFL divisional round playoff games? 

I am taking Packers, Bills, Chiefs, Bucs

 

Agree on all four. Packers and Bills are as big of a lock as you can get coming off the bye. Bills/Ravens is a toss up, but the Bills can play three safties which has given Lamar problems in the past. Bucs/Saints is also a toss up. If there were fans in the Superdome, I'd lean more to the Saints. I think it's more be hoping the Bucs win at this point.

Packers - Conceited Snobbish Rodgers! Why does everything seem to fall the Packer Way? :eyeroll:
Love to see Rams pull the upset.

Ravens - Jackson is on fire! I smell a burning upset over a surprisingly good Bills team.

Chiefs - Mahomes ain’t letting this one slip away! Even if their defense struggles and gives up a ton of points, he will find a way in the end to win.

Saints - This years team seems to be better than the others they’ve rolled out during there four year divisional run. Doubt they can win in Lambeau but should take care of business at home vs Bucs this Sunday. May come down to coaching and I’d say Sean Payton has the edge over Bruce Arians.

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
