Here we are almost at the finish line. 
"Poor Bills, wide right AGAIN? For real?"
Indeed. Joing us now is a coach who knows thing or 2 about going to the Super Bowl, the dark lord himself, Mr. Bill Belichick, how ya doing coach?
"Sports Illustrated speculates that I'm pissed off that Arthur Blank doesn't know the power of the dark side. I couldn't possibly comment on trivalities like human emotions."
Right. So coach, word is you Altlanta didn't hire you and you are likely sitting out this season because no team wants to give you total control due to your recent poor track record in the NFL draft.
"The dark side is a pathway to many talents some find to be unnatural, making good draft choices is not of them appeartly. I really thought Tyquan Thornton was the ticket. And trading up in the 4th round to take a KICKER seemed like a no-brainer."
"Wow a kicker, is his foot made of gold?"
"Shut up! I had a few drinks, so many people gave me cases of champagne every time I won a SUPER BOWL, I gotta drink the stuff.
Careful, they sent too many cigars to Grant and that's how he died.
"I'm glad my Chargers gave total power to Jim Harbaugh instead."
"The idjit that's still supports Crapkernik? Good luck, tootz."
"Oh no, you mentioned his name, he's gonna show up now."
Don't worry, I told him we moved to Gaza.
Let me know if you want on/off the list
Players get your picks in!
Holding my nose, Baltimore
San Fran
Brock Purdy (aka ‘Mr. Irrelevant’) would be a great story...
...but the comeback of Jared Goff would be even more rewarding.
I would be good with either. I have great admiration for Christian McCaffery from his Panther days. Would like to see him play for a ring.
Holding my breath for KC Detroit
I’ll go with Baltimore and Detroit for the road upset.
Gotta stick with the one what brung me
Detroit
Baltimore in the other.
Chiefs (please please please) and undecided.
I grew up near the great metropolis of NYC and could only get the few offered TV games. Waited for Howard Cosell on MNF to see the rest and that didn’t include everything. Relied on box scores in the local paper for football and baseball. The TV has now been turned off and only box scores remain.
Detroit and KC. I like upsets.
Impy - thanks for giving some-type of meaning to this NFL season. Good luck today.
Conference Champions:
Chiefs
Lions
Let’s Go!!
Lions
Chiefs
Kansas City
Detroit
49rs
Chiefs
You’re doing Danny proud with that one. ♥️
Lions over 49er’s.
Ravens over Chiefs.
Lions, Ravens.
Chiefs for the win!
Versus the 49ers.
RAVENS over CHIEFS. Ravens have too much on offense and defense for Mahomes and Kelce (and Taylor!) to overcome.
Second game I'm more on the fence.... But in the upset.... LIONS over the NINERS. Sentimental pick yeah but we'll see.
