Colts - the Andy Reid curse strikes again.

Pats - the chargers are a warm weather team and it’s supposed to be cold in Boston, home field advantage takes it.

Rams - really tough to call. Going on this in hope of cowboys losing more than anything.

Saints - all the noises coming out of NO sound just right, if they can hit their stride then they are capable of our scoring anyone.

Kyler Murray looks like he's choosing the NFL over Baseball, looks to be between him and Haskins for the top QB pick, Giants have to take one and the Jags are probably the only other top 10 pick likely to take a QB. Not sure if either of these are good enough to see a big move up the board for, especially when 2020 looks pretty loaded

On paper these look some of the best playoff games for a few years.
All the road teams definitely capable of winning yet all 4 home sides also capable of running riot on offense.
A bit of a cliché but all down to who turns up on the day
Eagles probably face biggest challenge having slaughtered in GW9 albeit with different QB.

Theres a case to say a couple of the home teams would have preferred not to have a bye week, Kansas City in particular would probably have wanted to keep their momentum rolling.

The Patriots on the other hand are used to taking this week off, have an extra week to prepare and get some injured players back to full health.

A young City fan, George Baker has put this together for uni. Sure he’d appreciate you all taking a look and sharing

Not sure I've seen the pundits more evenly split for playoff winners. Saints eagles aside basically 50/50 splits. Saints eagles around 60/40 for saints.
So going Chiefs, saints, Pats and Cowboys.
Cowboys only if they get Elliot going and also use him to keep Rams offense off the field.
Saints just have too many options for Eagles secondary despite improvements.
Chiefs if they can play at speed and defence can limit damage.
Pats organization to be enough in a close one.
Can see all 4 games being single score wins.

Chiefs are totally bossing it, which is a bit of a surprise.

Colts have been poor and the game looked like it was going to be a bit closer than this, even though Kansas were the clear favourites.

Rams were very impressive last night. Running game purred and then they nullified the Cowboys running game (what a shame) and that put pressure on Prescott.

Hoping now the Pats and Saints come through tonight.

Good performances by the Chiefs and Rams last night but thought they were both helped by the officiating. A couple of very soft calls.

Reverse of what the formbook said -
Dallas to shutdown the run and Rams to give up yards against the run.
Gurley is an incredible player.
CJ Anderson has reignited Rams since they picked him up off waivers from Panthers. Released by Broncos after a 1000yd season behind a terrible O line then Panthers didn't want him really.
Got the ring of one of those fairytale Sbowl stories.
Picked Rams on here in the summer but thought they weren't quite good enough in latter stages. Now they are looking a threat again.

That Rams OL was no joke last night.

Expect the Pats and Saints to win later, quite looking forward to the former as it's at a sensible time.

Quite fancy the Chargers against the Pats tonight. The Chargers are the better team but the Pats having home field advantage evens it up. A lot could depend on how fit Melvin Gordon is. Also, Hunter Henry making his comeback tonight. At the very least he'll provide a dangerous redzone threat.

Went for Pats but rooting for chargers tonight. They’re had a great season, Rivers deserves a ring and it would be funny to see a team with 0 fans lift the trophy.

I fear the Chargers might win too.

You have two pocket, quite immobile QB's tonight , so we may see a fair bit of blitzing.

Intriguing match-up.

Saints should beat the Eagles too, but Philadelphia are a dangerous side .

Both could be close.

would favour Brady consistently the top QB DVOA (performance under pressure). Only other QB last year with a positive DVOA - Keenum

Pats offensive line is giving Brady great protection so far. Brady is having a ball.

Blowout. Hopefully the game later is more entertaining, although I'd be entertained by Eagles being destroyed.

I am entertained. Pats are my second team. Don't get anywhere near the buzz I get with a Redskins win, but still really enjoy watching them win games and win titles.

Brady is looking class tonight.

it's just a well-coached system that when it comes off is brutal.
pats have the experience to move to another level in the play-offs.

Eagles 151. Saints 0

Saints 0-14. Already two touchdowns down.

The 4 best teams over the season fighting it out now. So difficult to call next weekend but if pushed I'd go Saints and Pats but that 2nd one is so close.

Saints SB

Honestly felt Eagles were going to take it on the last drive. Still an incredibly gutsy from a 9-7 team that had got thrashed there earlier in the season.
Hopefully Pats Chiefs is as good as regular season game. Indeed same for Rams & saints.
Anderson could be the difference maker for Rams. Mahomes for the Chiefs.
But gonna think about it for a few days then work out why Pats & Rams could win it
