    Will a 7 seed finally win? More playoff games mean little, IMO, if they're not even competitive. At least the Dolphins put up a fight without Tua last year in Buffalo.

    4/6 wild card games finished within one score last year though. The Dolphins did backdoor that a little bit.

    I wish Lions/Rams was Saturday night. That’s the best game of weekend IMO.

    Miami (banged up Waddle & Mostert and weak armed Tua in cold weather) and Pittsburgh (no Watt) feel like they have no shot though.

    Pittsburgh has got to be the worst playoff team I've seen in awhile

    Tomlin is just that good. Imagine a few weeks ago people were talking about getting rid of him because they are tired of only being 9-7 or better every year. Fucking spoiled ass franchises.

    I hope there’s an epic blizzard in Buffalo and it takes out both passing games so Pittsburgh is forced to give it to Najee Harris 40 times.

    That’s our only hope

    otherwise we get Taylor Swift in a parka in Buffalo next week with Romo and Nantz kissing Josh Allen’s ass ugh

    Man, I disagree. They have talent everywhere except at QB. I love their backs (Harris and Warren), their receivers (Johnson and Pickens) and TE (friermouth). Their defense is always scary, even without Watt. Highsmith is the best least talked about pass rusher in the league, and Heyward wrecks the game every time he plays the Bills. Their secondary is good, obviously Fitzpatrick is elite. Oh, and they’re coached by Mike motherfuckin Tomlin. I hate playing this team. Only hope is their QB doesn’t play to even average. They will run the ball and play good defense. That’s the formula for beating buffalo. I would not at all be surprised if Buffalo loses this. It’s a bad matchup for them.

    Never count the Cowboys out on a playoff choke. Probably happens second round though.

    Those are exactly mine, although I'm rooting for the Eagles (family), and I actually view Rams-Lions as a tossup.

    Also probably of the worst SB's ever when Roethlisrapist was a rookie. Spittsburgh won in spite of him. Is Rudolph still in?

    Looks good to me, but I kind of feel like there will be a couple of shockers. Man, do I ever hope the Packers pull off the upset and not just because I hate Dallas.

    I don’t think Miami has the team toughness to beat the Chiefs in Arrowhead under the lights. It’s going to be a low of zero degrees on Saturday.

    It’s all fun and games when they’re running their fast offense in 70 degree December weather in Florida.

    Eh he wanted to stick it to them in the beginning of November too and he didn’t do too much all things considered.
