I don't feel this NFL year is a good one at all and the winner of this would probably benefit from not facing an opposing crowd. After what we just saw this weekend, I would say that is the case.
NFC
Rams@Packers
GB should be grateful to not have to play a more imposing team until NFCCG. With that said, the Rams can get after the QB. The loss of Bakteri (sorry don't know how it's spelled) could be a problem for the Packers going up against Donald if he plays. If the Rams do slow down Rodgers, this could very well be an upset. But LAR has no chance against TB in a rematch or NO.
Winner: Packers....why win for nothing? Pack should pull it out.
Bucs@Saints
Well, well, well, the matchup I dreaded happening is going to happen. I am not mentally prepared for this game. The Saints looked a bit sluggish against the Bears until their defense was worn down and I really need to see Brees actually go off, because against that Bucs team he's going to need to. I feel this game is going to expose the health direction of the QBs going forward. Brees' moral compass has not allowed him to associate with the evil likes of Guererro and that may be why Brady is winning against father time more. When these teams played week 9, AB was not in a rhythm. He is now, and the Bucs have a monster attack that could overwhelm the Saints this time around. If Brees cannot keep up, this game could be lost after the third quarter.
Winner: Bucs....unfortunately, I cannot see the Saints winning despite being a better defense because of the rematch and health of Brees.
AFC
Browns@Chiefs
Boy did KC get lucky here. Cleveland came this far but this is where the lights go out. While it is not impossible for Mayfield to outplay Mahomes, Cleveland is not stopping KC's offense.
Winner: Chiefs....the easiest pick of them all.
Ravens@Bills
Last year, I envisioned a scenario where the Bills could have been the Titans last year had they gotten by Houston and Tennessee did not upset NE. Something told me the Bills could have made a run because I thought they could beat Houston and Baltimore last year, but this year that's what people expect. But Baltimore is wired differently this time. Jackson has that monkey off his back and Baltimore is just a more talented team. Buffalo's defense and Josh Allen is the big question here. How does Allen play against Baltimore's defense? How does LJ maneuver around the Bill's defense.
Winner: Ravens.....they are still my hot pick and they're just more experienced and better coached than the Bills.
Title Games
NFC
Bucs@Packers
The difference here is that TB faces GB after having to go to NO, but there is no serious HFA here. The weather is the only thing to me that slows TB down. But it's a matter of trusting Rodgers because of his motivation against a talented, loaded offense. Bucs have a bad defense but Rodgers really did not have many weapons to start and how he plays without his LT is questionable. If this is a shootout, TB is the better offense here. Packers would be wise to get after Brady early and often.
Winner: Bucs...I'm staying with the upset and benefit of no opposing crowd.
