The NFL playoffs are finally here, and as promised, TTS brings you our predictions on the full schedule of playoff contests, up to and including the Super Bowl!
AFC
1) Buffalo @ Houston
This could be an interesting game for a myriad of reasons. The Texans get defensive stud J.J. Watt back from injury, and he himself can make almost any kind of play. QB DeShaun Watson can make plays with both his arm and his legs, and usually is quite explosive. On the other side of the coin, the Bills are having their best season in years, and look to keep rolling. Offence hasn't been a problem for them all season, and I don't think it will be here.
PICK: Bills
2) Tennessee @ New England
I smell an upset of epic proportions here. Titans' QB Ryan Tannehill is a different man this season, and the Titans' running game is doing quite well. If their defence steps up big time, they can beat the Patriots, who look very mortal as of late. New England's time at the top has reached it's end.
PICK: Titans
NFC
1) Sorry Minnesota, but you're playing New Orleans, in New Orleans, against Drew Brees. Add to the fact that no one ever knows which Kirk Cousins will show up for the Vikes, and you have all the elements for a beat down.
PICK: Saints
2) Seattle @ Philadelphia
The Seahawks are coming off a season finale at home where they lost to San Francisco 49ers, who humbled them by virtually shutting down Russell Wilson and Marshawn Lynch. They go into Philly to play a hungry Eagles team, who's quarterback has a lot to prove. The Philly crowd should also come into play here as well.
PICK: Eagles
LAST WEEK: --
POST-SEASON: --
