Welcome back, folks! It’s Divisional Round time in the NFL playoffs, where things really start to heat up. Last week was filled with ups and downs. My record? A strong 4-2—leading the charge alongside Dave and Ed, who also hit the same mark. Bruce, Anthony, and Tim held down the middle at 3-3, giving us an overall Wild Card Weekend tally of 21-15. Not the dominance we’d hope for, but hey, it’s the playoffs—anything can happen.
Now, let’s talk standings. I’m still leading the pack with 200 wins this season, holding a slim three-game lead over Ed (197 wins). Tim sits 14 games back, with Anthony, Bruce, and Dave rounding out the group at 16, 17, and 20 games behind, respectively. With the end of the season creeping up, the margin for error is razor-thin.
Let’s get into the picks for the Divisional Round! Saturday kicks off with the Texans visiting the Chiefs, where everyone sees Kansas City advancing easily. Later, the Commanders head to Detroit to face the Lions—a clean sweep again as we’re all riding with Detroit. Sunday gets trickier. Rams at Eagles? It’s unanimous—Philly takes it. But the game of the week is Ravens-Bills. Everyone but Anthony has faith in Buffalo to get it done. Anthony, I respect the loyalty to the Ravens, but I’m feeling good about Josh Allen. Let’s see how it shakes out!
