Yesterday we took a look at who will be making the playoffs in the AFC. And, as promised, today we are going to look at the NFC. NFC East - Philadelphia EaglesThe East has two teams that have a chance at making the playoffs this year. (Sorry Washington, its not you.) With the exception of the 49ers, the Cowboys have had a pretty easy…
Coming into the final third of the season, the end of the road if you will, I have the Lions sitting at 8-3. This might be optimistic but Im fine with that. Lets see where they get the last 4 wins to end the season 12-5 and in first place in the NFC North. Possibly with a wildcard week bye but probably not? Lions…
Cincinnati Bengals @ Buffalo Bills - Cincinnati BengalsIve been putting off writing this post for two reasons. I really dont know who wins this game. And I dont know what to say about it either. Hell, I dont even know what to use for the image! These are probably the two best teams in the AFC. Except maybe the Chiefs. This is going to…
Who the hell decided that there would be a game on Monday? Is this normal? (What is "Normal"?) I didnt sign up for a Monday night playoff game. Dallas Cowboy @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Tampa Bay BuccaneersThis game has me vexed. The Bucs are 8-9. Thats not a surprise, they really havent been good this season. Which begs the question, why are they…
It has been a rollercoaster ride of a season this year. With three weeks left there is a lot of playoff stuff already determined. But, the 4-9-1 Indianapolis Colts are technically not eliminated. In fact, only 5 teams have been eliminated so far. Lets take a look at some of my bolder predictions from earlier in the season and then take one last stab…
Yesterday we took a look at my AFC playoff picks. Lets see how the NFC is going to play out. NFC East: Dallas Cowboys Daves big upset pickThe demise of the Giants is moving along as predicted. The Commanders have won six of the last seven. The Cowboys only real blemishes this season are losses to the Bucs and Packers. They probably didnt get…
Last week I reviewed my Lions preseason picks. In my week 11 recap I said "Just for fun Ill stick with the Lions in what will be (bonus pick) the first Giants loss of an 8 game losing streak to end the 2022 season." This week I would like to elaborate on that. Just to be clear, the Giants are coming off of a…
Last week, rather than picking individual games, I picked who I thought was going to win each division at the end of the season. Time will be the ultimate judge but my predictions held up pretty well as Sundays games were played. Now back to picking a couple of individual games. Lions @ CowboysIn my preseason Lions predictions I had the Detroit coming out…
Lets just call last week "Bruno" because we are not going to talk about it. The Lions have week 6 off so they cant blow another one! Rather than picking individual games, shift gears. Now that the Power Rankings are starting to show some usable data lets talk about playoffs. Heres who I think the division winners will be. AFC East - Buffalo BillsThe…
We are on the eve of the 2022 NFL season. As with every season, I have not spent any time watching the preseason games. Traditionally I would pick division winners but I think this year Ill pick a few games, likely the ones I will be watching and then pick who I think will win. So, lets do some very uninformed picks. Bills @…
