I only had one prediction - that the NFC East would advance. I’ve won a prediction.


Can Patrick Mahomes win on one leg twice in a row?

[Admin Dirk]

He's won an AFC Championship on a bum leg before. Or bum toe. Didn't fare as well in the Superbowl with it, though.


Also, half of the NFC East didn't advance this weekend.

Let's see how Dallas fares against SF. I'm looking forward to this game. Buffalo did not show up to play tonight, and there was a lot less zaniness than I was hoping for from a snow game. CIN KC should be an exciting game. I'm not sure who I want the eagles to play next round. If we get the cowboys that played the bucs than I don't see a positive outcome. We'd need 3 int Dak to show up.

Ah, little brother... 75% of the nfc east didn't advance at all. But you got 25% right.

That was a good football game. I'm excited for the conference round. I think Philly can beat SF. Should be a tough game.

I wasn't sure before this weekend (see my notes from picks), but the niner's looked beatable yesterday, for the first time in ages. I think you may well be right, and I am going to lose my prediction.
I had a 4-0 weekend at this level, so I am 8-2 going into conference championships... but it's getting tighter and tougher. I have less confidence in each pick now.

So, purely because of timing and which broadcasts I've had access to, I've watched both Bengals games. I kind of hate Joe Burrow, but they sure can win a football game!

It's weird because in both games the Bengals didn't look great, they just made the other team look terrible.

Mahomes vs Burrows: Battle of the Baby Faces!

75% of every division didn’t advance. You still aren’t making your point.

[Admin Dirk]

I'm not the one that said the NFC East would advance, when 3/4 of them retreated.


I'll go out on a limb this week, and predict the AFC AND NFC team will advance to the Superbowl.

[Raylorne]

Got some butterflies in my stomach watching the pregame show.

Fly Eagles Fly!

Good luck to KC today as well. I’d like to be wrong on my superbowl winner pick.

[Raylorne]

This has been some game so far.

[Admin Dirk]

yeah, I don't see me winning my side of the bracket on this game...

I don't think the ghost of Joe Montana, Steve Young and Jerry Rice can come back and make a difference anymore.

[Raylorne]

I told my son "There’s a orange team and a red team. Who are we cheering for?"

His reply. "The red team."
