Rufus T Firefly Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 The NFC is just so much better, even with the #1 seed's MVP candidate out, and more interesting than the AFC right now. Though I'll be interested to see if Kansas City can give the Patriots a scare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hail2skins Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Yeah its tough for me to have a lot of interest in the AFC wild-card games. I think Panthers-Saints should be a good matchup, and I hope the Rams destroy the Falcons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voice_of_Reason Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 I think it’s most likely in the AFC the seedlings hold. Setting up a Steelers vs Pats rematch on the NFC side, I see the seeds holding in the first round (barely) but New Orleans beating Philly in round 2. Minnesota vs. Rams is the matchup I hope happens. I favor the Vikings at home, but I’d be very interested to see what boy wonder can do with his second shot at them. Just about any team in the NFC can get to the SB except the Eagles, who can’t score without Wentz. If the Panthers knock off the Saints, they will beat the Eagles. i don’t really see the Falcons beating the Rams, but it could happen. Of of all the first round games, I think the Saints have the biggest challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing how in the 1990s, they went to 4 straight Super Bowls. Then, started missing the playoffs for almost 20 straight years. Otherwise, it's just about the Patriots. Again.

Warhead36 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Jags/Bills actually does seem kinda interesting to me. Titans/Chiefs? Snoozefest. Both NFC games should be great. I think all the home teams win except Rams/Falcons, where I think the Falcons experience proves vital and they eek out a close one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
