I'd rather have Baltimore & Saints.

I like the Bills upsetting the Texans, Deshaun Watson has been shit the last month of the season.
I know the Titans is a popular upset pick, but I don't see it, Patriots win big.
Saints destroy the Vikings.
Another upset, I like Philly over Seattle. Seattle has been limping along of late. I don't like the way they are playing. They can't tackle. Eagles are battle-tested.

That Buffalo defense has been stout.
Pats will win, but it will be close
Saints murder Vikings
Seattle over Philly

_________________

Titans @ Pats - Pats should win. They will find a way to shut down D. Henry. Spread is low and they will cover too.

Seattle @ Philly - Tough call. Seattle had tough close call at another NFC East foe last year. I say they redeem themselves this time. I like both teams. Would like to see Philly win, because when they are good, they are tough to beat. Seattle has been an overachieving team this year.

Buffalo @ Houston - Houston always seems to host a playoff game, and usually lose. I say this time they win. Buffalo doesn't have the offense to win on the road. Houston is inconsistent but they have weapons and I think Watson finally gets it done here.

Vikings @ Saints - Vikings are a real good team. Even Cousins has improved this year to a legit solid QB. But after 2 straight years of heartbreaking playoff defeats, there is no way the Saints will lose this time. They are a great team. Hard to believe a 13-3 team is playing in the wild card round, but quirky and neat at the same time.

Interesting trend:

Belichik employees have beaten him a lot lately (it used to be the other way around, where Belichik dominated his former employees):

-Fat Matt Patricia beat him in Detroit last year
-Mike Vrabel beat him in Tennessee last year
-Bill O' Brien beat him this year in Houston
-Brian Flores beat him last week

Guess who Belichik is facing today? Mike Vrabel

A defensive battle so far with Bills/Texans. Jamieson Watson doing nothing, as I predicted.

Bills have a great defense.

I doubt the Houston GM will have to hold a press conference just to say Deshaun is our quarterback.

Let this one die

NFL prospects for both Mitch and Watson look 'meh'. Mahomes was the gem that got away.

WTF, that throw by Allen was perfect. The receiver did a terrible job of dragging his feet.

Nope. Mitch is barely hanging onto his job and Watson will be a 10+ year starter.

Havent you pretty much said that mitch will be a starter in the league for several years?

Either way....it is clearly

Mahomes











Watson



Mitch

It was a great throw but Booger is right that it was late.

No I have not. I said I think he will be a starter longer than Jameis Winston will starting next year

Something is off with Watson that is all I'm saying. He's taking a ton of sacks. The Texans sold the farm too to protect him with Tunsil.

It's like nothing has changed with the Texans in two years. Crap protection, little running other than Watson

This may be the plum job when their coaches are canned.

4 and 3...punt. Bill OBrien has zero nuts

That was the right call. Between your Mitch/ Watson thoughts and this one I hope you're drinking early.

Away from the actual game. Love the old school Monday night football music they have been using. Brought back some fun memories.

A cuck like you would punt on 3rd down.

You.must be watching a different game. Texans not blocking anyone. Their best hope to turn Allen over a couple times, have Watson scramble his way into a couple big.plays.
