While the playoffs have thus far been short on drama, the Super Bowl should at least be entertaining.
Two of the league’s top QBs and high firing offenses will meet in Houston this weekend to determine the landing place for the 2016-17 Lombardi Trophy.
So, who’s going to win? We’ll get there in a moment. First, we need to update the standings – Andy was the only one to miss a game in championship weekend. It was his first miss of the postseason.

Will the game live up to the hype? Here’s what our crew of writers thinks: (more…)
Some people say this has been a disappointing post-season so far. And maybe they are right – most of the games to this point have been blowouts. The Green Bay/Dallas game saved divisional weekend. And the Chiefs/Steelers game at least had some drama.
But if it’s been disappointing so far, we should at least be set up for two great games this weekend. Should be plenty of scoring and plenty of excitement.
First, a recap of last week. Andy was brutal during the regular season, but he’s on fire right now. Can’t miss. Tony’s close behind. Here are the standings:

And here are picks for championship weekend. Enjoy folks: (more…)
It’s divisional weekend, the greatest weekend of the NFL football season.
The pretenders, well, most of them anyway, are out. The serious contenders meet up this weekend. It’s usually four of the better games you’ll have the opportunity to watch.
And, for once, Andy has the lead. Terrible at picking games all season, he nailed all four on Wild Card weekend. Will he keep it up? Probably not. So he might as well enjoy the bragging rights while he can.
Here are the standings:
Wild Card week
Andy
4-0
Vomhof
3-1
Tony
3-1
Maggio
2-2
And here are our picks for the Best Week of the Season: (more…)
Hmm. That went fast. Four months and change after the regular season kicked off, here we are facing Wild Card weekend in the NFL. There are a few new faces in the postseason crowd this year. But if you believe our contributors, most of them will be eliminated by the playoff regulars by the end of the weekend.
Yes on offense I agree that controlling the ball via rushing attack is needed but like the Lions found out…
Paul: easier said than done. Daniels is not your typical rookie qb. He already has more no punt/no turnover games…
Key will be for Eagles defense to press Daniels (as rookie QB) into mistakes and perhaps INT-take advantage of his…
Brian Wolf: I love your optimism, but I’m not so sure. Philly is a deeply flawed team, but I’m not…
Good playoff games this weekend, with the Bills getting another chance to beat the Chiefs in postseason. I predict they…
