Your NFC picks are exactly the same as mine.

As for the AFC, I have no idea who wins that as I could see the Pats losing the first round or getting to the AFC Championship. I think the Bills are the only ones who could beat the Chiefs so something has to give. I think I'll go Bengals, Pats, Chiefs in round one. Pats over Titans and Chiefs over Pats.

This year is wide open.

Chiefs over Steelers
Bills over Patriots
Bengals over Raiders

Titans over Bengals
Chiefs over Bills

Chiefs over Titans (One team as a Titans fan I just feel like we won't beat for sure, not sure why...as we beat them 27-3 earlier in the season)

Bucs over Eagles
49ers over Cowgirls
Rams over Cardinals

Packers over 49ers
Rams over Bucs

Packers over Rams

Packers over Chiefs in a close one and the woke world commits massive hari kari as Rodgers wins Super Bowl MVP.

Give me the home team in every first round matchup. I will reassess after that round but my early prediction is...

Chiefs 31
Packers 28

If the Chiefs do not win again this year is there ever a team picked to do so well in a 4 year stretch with just 1 championship to show for it? They have won 8 of 9 coming into the playoffs so they are hot.

Hearing that the Bills/Pats game might have some crazy snow coming.. and if that's the case, it's anyone's game.

Hate that the Bills have the Pats again, I'd have rather they faced almost any other team. But when you play the same team 3 times in a year, that 3rd game can be very much "evened" out.

Speaking of Patriots, I saw another Belichick assistant turned head coach in Brian Flores got canned from Miami. Keep offering those head coaching jobs to Bill's assistants, NFL GMs. I'm sure one might end up worth a crap.

LineSki, yeah, I think the Bills are capable of winning the AFC. I'd feel comfortable in predicting that if they didn't face the Pats again. But I wouldn't be against seeing the Bills face the Cowboys again in a Super Bowl where they bring back Leon Lett and Don Beebe for the coin toss. 😂

Kind of odd that all of us are down on the Bucs given Brady. They get back Fournette, Shaq Barrett and JPP for the Eagles game.

Not having the Bengals v Patriots in the wild card round was the only silver lining about the Steelers making it in.

Everyone is blasting Miami for firing him. Gonna be a big mistake. Great NFL coaches don't come around often and Flores was pretty solid.

I'm a closet Bills fans so I've watched them quite a bit, probably even more than the Jets. They are a fast defense but not a powerful defense, and that shows in their Run D (see: first Pats game). And as much as I love to watch Allen, he still plays too much hero ball. Needs to throw the ball away more and not give his body up on the so many runs.

And for whatever reason, Buffalo has played like absolute **** in the snow and cold. They're so hard to trust.

I think the Pats made a living beating up on **** teams this year, making themselves look better then they are. They also had some timely matchups. And Mac Jones has sort of come back down to earth.. but Bill B is still the GOAT and the Bills are shaky right now. I'm not confident at all.

It’s tempting, but at some point he’s gonna falter.
You’d think it would have happened by now considering how bad Favre and Manning fell off in the end.
Manning is one year older than Brady yet retired six years ago. Favre retired at 41.

Brady is going to win the MVP and he’s going to be 45 this year.

I wouldnt count on Brady falling off a cliff in the next few weeks. But I do question if this Bucs team around him is still top in the league (considering injuries). The Bucs rolled into the playoffs last year pretty much healthy, while other teams weren't. And now it's almost reversed. They haven't impressed much over the last few weeks, so I wonder how "hot" they are coming into playoffs.

Patriots won the first game due to fluke weather. I dont think they are on chiefs, bills or even a healthy don't turn it over a ton titans teams.

Agreed. But Bills have also been sloppy lately. And it seems the weather might be a repeat of game 1.. which really favors New England.

Then again, I dont forsee the Bills being caught with their pants down like last time. That was embarrassing.

Speaking of weather up this way.. its going to be -20 with windchill in some areas tonight. Only a high of 7 tomorrow.

I'm not going to enough trouble to verify my seedings are correct but here is the gist:

Chiefs over Steelers
Bills over Pats
Bengals over Raiders

Bengals over Titans (homer)
Chiefs over Pats

Chiefs over Bengals

Bucs over Eagles
49ers over Cowboys (lock)
Cardinals over Rams

Packers over 49ers
Bucs over Cardinals

Packers over Bucs

Packers over Chiefs 38-24

Bengals over everyone with ease, the rest of the games simply don’t matter…

In reality I don’t have the slightest clue who comes out of the AFC, it does feel like it could be anyone. NFC will be Packers or Bucs.

Brady has lost three Super Bowls.
And he's been to 10 of them and won 7. TEN!

Super Bowl appearances by the other greats

Elway 5 (2-3)
Montana 4-0
Manning 2-2
Favre 1-1
Marino 0-1
Brees 1-0
Rodgers 1-0

In the three SBs Brady lost, here were his stats

SB52 Vs PhIlly- 503 yards, 3 TDs, O INTs
SB46 Vs NYG-276 yards, 2 TDs, 1 INT
SB42- Vs NYG- 266 yards, 1 TD, 0 INT

They certainly didn't lose these games cause of him as he left the field late in the fourth quarter with the lead only to watch them lose it.

Someone said Brady is the GOAT. That is 100% true. Someone else said that Brady will win the MVP. That’s murky. Brady very well might win the MVP but it will only be because of the spineless a-hole journalists that don’t vote for Rodgers simply because he is an “ant-vaxer”.

Rodgers or Kupp should win MVP this season and Brady isn’t really that close...or shouldn’t be.

Rodgers already has the MVP locked up and it isn't close no matter what a disgruntled Chicago hack says.

The offense didn't do enough against the Giants either time to win the game IMO. 14 points and 16 (I think) are not very impressive. He is the leader of the offense so that is on him, but hell, we are splitting hairs. The guy is the GOAT and has been for a while...7 Super Bowls is insane. Hell, when he got up to 5 it was insane.

Definitely underperformed in 2007 for sure considering that team was lighting up the scoreboard. Giants just had a good defense and brought it when it counted. The Philly loss though, there's nothing more that guy could've been expected to do as their defense was AWFUL. I mean, awful. But then one year later, the defense is what won the Super Bowl against the Rams so it balances out.

The GOAT debate was settled after the Falcons comeback Super Bowl win. That guy has won two more titles since then. Just crazy. I know no one debates it anymore but when you see how spaced out his Super Bowl victories have been compared to the other greats who won them all in the same space (4 or 5 years, Montana winning 4 in 7 seasons) and then you see Brady, it goes like this 01, 03, 04...then a decade later, 14, 16, 18, 20. That's something you don't see in sports very often and never in football.

How is it anyone but Tom Brady? He threw for 1,200 more yards, 6 more TDs, same record as AR, near same QB rating. Brady is 44 years old. That's the MVP to me.

How is it anyone but Tom Brady?
Rodgers has compiled the best record in football. Once again finished another season with one of the best td to interception ratios in history. Did so while missing 4 olinemen starters(only starter playing is a rookie) top slot receiver, tight end who led the NFL in tds among tight ends last yr, a defense missing its 2 best players all the while playing with a broken toe.

Had a prime time performance beating at the time a team who had the best record at their place while missing 11 starters(including his whole starting receiving core) in front of a national audience.

No knock on Brady. He's in the top 3.

Rodgers kinda earned it this yr.

Doubling down on telling the media to eff off is just a plus.

The MVP is Cooper Kupp. He has had the greatest season for a WR in NFL history. He leads the league in Catches, Yards and TDs. I don't even know how it is a conversation. There is nothing special about the years that Rodgers or Brady are having. It probably isn't even in their own personal top 5 seasons for either of them. If anyone was going to challenge Kupp it would be TJ Watt who just tied the NFL sack record and has had one of the best defensive seasons on record.

I don't know why they insist on giving the MVP to a QB every season. They should just make it the best QB award and move on.

I agree there should be different or new award system. With today's rules qbs are always going to put up record numbers. Wide receivers will too

That's what the Heisman is. Every now and then a RB creeps in. Then an anomaly like a wide out last year winning it.
