Would love to see Brady make it 12-5 vs Manning en route to winning another Super Bowl. But with as dominant as the Seahawks have been, it'd be hard to bet against them.

NE over IND, PIT over DEN, PIT over NE
SEA over DET, GB over CAR, SEA over GB
SEA over PIT in the Super Bowl.
I'm predicting hot teams stay hot, water stays wet, and that DAL and CIN fall flat on their face in the playoffs again.

Do people really think Stafford is going to Dallas and winning? What is your basis for that? He has never beaten a playoff team on the road, and nothing about his play says that should change. Could it happen...Yes, but little pertinent data points to a win here.
Sea over Dallas, GB over Carolina, Sea over GB
NE over IND, Pit over Den, NE over Pit
Brayd wins another Superbowl, capping the most successful dynasty ever in the NFL.

I'll predict the Patriots winning the Super Bowl like a brash Boston fan, but there are some serious road blocks:
Denver - I don't think Denver is that much of a threat. I'm not sure Peyton Manning can keep up with Brady this time. However, the Broncos are too talented a team to count off.
Pittsburgh - This is the scariest team in the AFC for me. They're playing well. They're a physical team and while the Patriots are not a soft team, Pittsburgh is one of the toughest teams to play. This is an opponent that the Patriots could struggle with. I hate the Steelers.
Green Bay - Aaron Rodgers is basically the perfect quarterback in this day and age. Sorry, Lions fans. I said it. His accuracy was lethal in the first game and the game plan to target the non-Revis/Browner DB was genius. It would be interesting to see how Belichick makes changes to prevent this from being a problem in a potential rematch. Rodgers ability to get out of the pocket and avoid pressure was also a problem that was less talked about. Furthermore, I thought Josh McDaniels had a horrible game (sidenote: his awful playcalling is why I won't miss him if he gets a head coaching job). Green Bay doesn't have a good run defense and the Patriots went away from it way too fast. I think that hurt the defense too because all of the three and outs kept Belichick from making adjustments. Oh, and no home cooking this time. The officiating, especially early on, was pretty freaking terrible at Lambeau.
Seattle - Seattle poses the most match up problems. Quarterback that is mobile, power running game, awesome defense. This is a game where a guy like Tim Wright would have to have a huge impact. I personally think Seattle will be the toughest out in the playoffs. They're just playing some crazy good ball right now.
I'd love for a Dallas-New England Super Bowl, just to see everyone unhappy though. Full disclosure, I like this Dallas team. They're likable beyond their terrible owner. I'm not even joking.

I predict lots of Brady. Lots and lots.
December 31st, 2014 at 8:11 AM ^
My Buccaneers we not win one playoff game this year.
December 31st, 2014 at 8:21 AM ^
Zero % chance of Harbaugh.
Now and in the future.
December 31st, 2014 at 8:28 AM ^
I think the Lions will play very well this weekend. Just saw on ESPN how the team has rallied around Suh and taken a real "us against the world' mentality. ESPN was saying how this team was really going to show mental fortitude and mental toughness, something that is necessary when going against Dallas.
It's a shame this team constantly has to deal with haters in the League office who have unfairly targetted the team for years, especially Suh. Just look at all of the BS fines. Does any other team have to deal with these types of distractions? Guess Goodell only wants to see large market teams (Dallas) succeed and will do anything to impair the Lions.
Apparently stepping backwards onto one of Goodell's Nancy-Boy Quarterbacks is more egregious than pummeling women and children (except, of course, when video is released and advertisers get upset).
December 31st, 2014 at 9:24 AM ^
Didn't you see them rally around Riaola with the same mentality last weekend? Doesn't count for jack when you are playing better teams in the playoffs
December 31st, 2014 at 8:32 AM ^
I predict that every game will have a Harbaugh reference.....
December 31st, 2014 at 8:38 AM ^
My only NFL prediction is that the Lions will lose quite badly to the LOLBoys.

I'll give this round a go anyway and then sit on the rest because I like to do it round-by-round for the NFL for some reason (probably because a great majority of NFL games are decided by a score or less, although the playoff seem to mock that trend sometimes):
Arizona / Carolina - Arizona easy.
Pittsburgh / Baltimore - tougher call. I'll go Steelers.
Cincinnati / Indianapolis - I think the Colts take this one.
Detroit / Dallas - Suh gives them a puncher's chance on defense, but advantage Dallas.
December 31st, 2014 at 8:56 AM ^
since Suh will not be suspended. Staford usually plays well in Texas! Staford will have to have a big day if the Lions even stand a chance of winning against Dallas!
#### wild round
Detroit vs Dallas= Dallas
Cardinal vs Panthers= Panthers
Ravens vs Steelers = Steelers
Bengal vs Colts = Colts
#### Divisional round
Seahawks vs Panthers = Seahawks
Packers vs Cowboys= Cowboys
Ravens vs Patriots= Patriots
Colts vs Broncos= Broncos

I would not be surprised if the Cowboys knock off the Seahawks!

Death, taxes, and the Lions with another playoff loss.
Hilarious that I was at the Silverdome game for our only win...and I was a high schooler.

Ugh. Damn you, Stafford. In my opinion the Lions have easily the worst QB of any team that made the playoffs, with the exception of the Cardinals, and obviously that's only because third-stringer.
