After a thrilling final weekend in the NFL, the playoffs begin next week. The NFC is much well rounded with all for wild card teams (Philly, San Francisco, New Orleans, and Green Bay) all with a realistic chance to win the Super Bowl. The same cannot be said about the AFC teams. Indy, Cincinnati, San Diego (Really?), and Kansas City do not seem to have a real chance to win. The only team you can make a case for is Cincy because of their defense, but they are also lead by this dog whisperer.
Chargers Vs. Bengals(-6.5) (46O/U)
The Chargers are more unpredictable than Kanye West. I got to take the under and the dog whisperer
Chiefs Vs. Colts (-2.5) (46O/U)
Who cannot love the story of Andy Reid, Alex Smith and the Chiefs. Both send offs of their former teams for no real good reason and leading the loyal fans of Kansas City to a 11-5 record. They have a smart coach, great running attack (Jamal Charles and the emergence of Knile Davis), good QB, and a good Defense. All seems to be a good recipe for playoff football, but a closer look reveals they have lost 5 out of 7 games. All the loses being to the Broncos(twice), Chargers(Twice), and Colts all teams in the their way. Good job, good effort Kansas City, but I will take the Colts and the over. Andrew Luck knows how to win while being almost as boring as Joe Flacco.
Saints Vs. Oregon East (-2.5) (55O/U)
The Eagles enter as the most dangerous team in the playoffs. Too many play makers to count on one hand. They have the best QB since October in Nick Foles (27TDS-2INTs) while leading the Eagles to a 9-3 record. The most versatile running back in LeSean McCoy and the hardest to tackle in the open field since Barry Sanders. I cannot see the Eagles losing at home in cold, Philly weather when the Bayou Domers come into town. Drew Brees is a great quarterback, but his one trip and win to the Super Bowl was aided by playing in the Super Dome every weekend. I expect Brees to put up points, but Philly to put up more. Taking Oregon East and the over.
