Divisional Round

 

#1 Broncos over #6 Bengals (Broncos by more than a TD)

I hope you are right. Last year, I ended up in Vegas the day after the Superbowl and went ahead and put some money down on the Broncos to win the Superbowl at I believe 28-1 (have the ticket at home, will double check). This was before they had Manning, etc. so it was more a fan bet than a truly educated bet. Not a hugh bet, it was 20 or so dollars, but still, looking at a $500 payday if they do it.

 

Of course, I also bet on the Bears at that time and it didn't work out.

AFC

 

Wildcard Round

 

#6 Bengals over #3 Texans (Don't like how the Texans finished, calling the upset here)

 

Agreed. I wouldn't call it an upset. Texas has played poorly in recent weeks.

 

#4 Ravens over #5 Colts (This will be closer than the line.)

 

Agreed. Ray Ray goes out in style and punishes Luck. Indy has no answer for R.Rice.

 

Divisional Round

 

#1 Broncos over #6 Bengals (Broncos by more than a TD)

 

Agreed. It's gonna be more than a TD.

 

#2 Patriots over #4 Ravens (Patriots by 14+)

 

Agreed. Both TE's will be in this game. Sorry but Balt has no answer for both Gronk and Hernandez.

 

AFC Championship

 

#1 Broncos over #2 Patriots (In an epic battle, Peyton out-duels Brady in a close one)

 

Agreed. Don't think it will be a shootout though, Denver's young LB core will be all over Brady and the TE's. It's gonna be ugly.

 

 

NFC

 

Wildcard Round

 

#3 Packers over #6 Vikings (Not real close, Packers by 10+)

 

Agreed. Better play AP now in your playoff FF games.

 

#5 Seahawks over #4 Redskins (Best game of the week, down to the wire)

 

Agreed kinda sorta. I love the Seahawks and the D. I'm starting to warm up to the Skins in this one. I still pick the Hawks but this one will be very close.

 

Divisional Round

 

#5 Seahawks over #1 Falcons (Falcons playoff woes continue, Hawks stay hot)

 

Agreed if this is the game. Don't think it will be as I think about it. RGIII would destroy the Atlanta D. If this is the game, Seahawks. If its the Skins, Skins. Putting it simply, Atlanta does not advance no matter who the opponent is.

 

#2 Niners over #3 Packers (Niners win a close/great battle here)

 

Disagree. Sorry....Packers are gonna enjoy a healthy offensive lineup for the first time since week 1. Not even close. Niners get destroyed.

 

NFC Championship

 

#5 Seahawks over #2 Niners (Seahawks become the newest wildcard team to get to SB)

 

Packers vs. Seahawks (Skins) ..... Packers advance.

 

 

Super Bowl

 

Broncos over Seahawks (Peyton Manning proves that he is the best QB ever)

 

 

 

Broncos over the Pack. Erasing all doubt the P.Manning is the best QB in the history of the NFL.

#5 Colts over #4 Ravens

#5 Seahawks over #4 Redskins

#3 Packers over #6 Vikings

 

#5 Colts over #1 Broncos

#2 Patriots over #3 Texans

 

#2 Patriots over #5 Colts

 

** I beleive in this Colt team and I am not a homer. There is something about this team that makes me think there is some magic left. I think they run past an aging Ravens team and I think they get ahead of Peyton early and do just enough to pull out the win. It all ends in NE though. I am a BIG fan of Luck. I think he will be one of the best in the next couple of years.

 

#5 Seahawks over #4 Redskins

#3 Packers over #6 Vikings

 

#5 Seahawks over #1 Falcons

#3 Packers over #2 49ers

 

#5 Seahawks over #3 Packers

 

** I am ALL IN on Seattle. I know they are not a road dominant team, but I think their defense and special teams - which travel well - will be the difference. I predict they will roll over Washington, Russell will lead them in a higher scoring game in Atlanta to a win and that they will handle Rodgers and GB - who have no runing game - and pull out an OT win.

 

#5 Seahawks over #2 Patrots

 

Well, in for a penny in for a pound. It will be an epic Super Bowl but Russell Wilson will proved to be the difference as he leads Seattle to the Super Bowl. Mind you, I hate Pete Carroll so this pains me, but I think they are the best team in the playoffs and will win it all.

 

This will then lead to a Matt Flynn trade to Cleveland - most likely involving Cleveland's #1 pick - in order to avoid any QB controversy in 2013-2014.

:huh:

 

Sorry..no way in hell is Matt Flynn worth the #6 overall pick in the draft. MAYBE a 3rd rounder...and do you really think Matt Flynn can run Chip Kelly's offense? I don't.

I'm actually a bit surprised to see such support for the Broncos. Denver offers the best home field advantage in the league, in my opinion. Mile High isnt the loudest stadium any longer but gets plenty loud; Peyton runs the no-huddle like no other and when paired with a quiet venue it is even more effective. The altitude is underestimated on many accounts...people whom are simply visiting suffer from altitude sickness, when amplified by activity like playing a football game, it is exhausting.

 

New England always scares me but I think history dictates that they dont play well at Mile High, so:

 

AFC

Week1

Bengals over Texans

Colts Over Ravens

 

Week2

Broncos over Bengals

Patriots over Colts

 

Week3

Broncos over Patriots

 

NFC

Week1

Vikings over Packers

Seahwaks over Redskins

 

Week2

Vikings over Falcons

Seahawks over 49ers

 

Week3

Seahawks over Vikings

 

Therefore:

 

Seahawks v Broncos in the SB

 

Broncos win 27 - 14

I never thought Kelly was going to Cleveland so it would not matter. And now that he is not, add in the fact Weeded is not the answer, then yes, I believe Flyyn is on the move to Cleveland. I thought they had a later 1st round pick but no, I agree not for the #6. But for a #2. Flynn - To me - is better than any QB coming out for the draft.
