Pigskin Pickem Thread, Wildcard Playoffs

Excuse me?

Pulled away in the 2nd half o the season?
Mup until they lost to the Packers they were constantly the second best team win wise in the NFC

Say what you will about their 11 one score wins, but they did not come on strong in the 2nd half of the Season

They lost 2 games in the first half and 2 games in the 2nd half

Here ya go....

Saturday, January 14

NFC: 4:30 p.m. (ET) (7) Seattle Seahawks at (2) San Francisco 49ers (FOX, FOX Deportes). The Niners have beaten the Seahawks twice already this season and there is no reason they won't do so again. The next step in the Niners journey to the Super Bowl.

AFC: 8:15 p.m. (ET) (5) Los Angeles Chargers at (4) Jacksonville Jaguars (NBC, Peacock, Universo). I really don't know what to make of this game. The Jags beat the Chargers handily back in Week 3; should have taken that as a sign that this was a new Jaguars team. And the Chargers seem to always find a way to disappoint, especially in the postseason(remember those Marty S and Norv Turner teams that laid eggs? Of course that's ancient history to most fans today...). But maybe it's a real coming out party for Trevor Lawrence? The Jaguars win!

Sunday, January 15

AFC: 1:00 p.m. (ET) (7) Miami Dolphins at (2) Buffalo Bills (CBS, Paramount+). The lock of the weekend! The Tua-less Phish won't have a chance against a fired-up emotional win-one-for-the-Gipper home team Bills. The Bills romp!

NFC: 4:30 p.m. (ET) (6) New York Giants at (3) Minnesota Vikings (FOX, FOX Deportes). All the pundits are down on the Vikings as the weakest 13-win team in history. Nevertheless they won those games and if this is close, as I think it will be, the Vikings have the experience in pulling out close ones. Vikings.

AFC: 8:15 p.m. (ET) (6) Baltimore Ravens at (3) Cincinnati Bengals (NBC, Peacock, Telemundo). I hope they Ravens start Anthony Brown again. He'll play better but he won't play better enough as Joe Burrow and Company beat Baltimore and advance. Bengals.

Monday, January 16

NFC: 8:15 p.m. (ET) (5) Dallas Cowboys at (4) Tampa Bay Buccaneers (ESPN/ABC, ESPN2-Manningcast, ESPN+, ESPN Deportes) Will the Cowboys overcome against a mediocre Bucs team? Will Tom Brady rise to the occasion as he has done so many times? Will Dak Prescott sink to the occasion as he has so many times? That's a lot of questions! The Answer: BUCS WIN!

Good luck everyone!

I am an under breast guy, and belly button girl has never been the same... I am picking all under dogs this time, starting with my ravens...

Hoping that it is not the size of the dog in the fight....
