2015 NFL Playoff Predictions

In the pre-season, I picked Packers/Colts for Super Bowl 50, so there's that.  I did however have my Niners going 5-11.

Let's start with this weekend's games.

AFC
KC over Houston
Cincinnati over Pitt

Thoughts: The Bengal quarterback spot is still up in the air; I'll revisit once that decision is made.

                 Right now, Houston's getting 3 and the Bengals getting 2.5, were I picking against the spread, I'd take both dogs.

NFC
Sea over Minn
GB over Wash

Thoughts: The Packers are getting 1, so were I picking against the spread, I'd take them.  The Vikes are getting 6, and I would also take that number.

So, ATS, all dogs.

That would leave us with...

AFC:
KC at Denver
Cincinnati at NE

NFC:
Seattle at Carolina
GB at Arizona

I'll be taking the Chiefs in that scenario.  I'd love to take the Bengals, and if Dalton's back I might, but from here I'll take NE.

That would mean Kansas City at New England in the AFC Championship game.  And goddamit, I'm taking New England.

In the NFC, that Seahawk/Panther game is just big on big, I'll probably take Seattle.

And Arizona, without any concern, in their half.

From here, I'll take the Cards; I'm likely to do that anyway, but given that Seattle/Carolina is a coin flip and Arizona should walk to the conference title, that's the pick.

So, my Super Bowl pick is New England vs. Arizona.

I'm picking the Cardinals.
