2025 NFL Playoffs Thread

[Senator Clay Davis]

Schedule is out so might as well get this going.

[Sylvanfan]

Right now the books say

LAC -3 @ Hou
Pit +9.5 @ Bal was 7.5 at open
Den +8.5 @ Buf
GB+4.5 @ Phi I thought I saw +3 earlier
Was +3 @ TB
Min -2 @ LAR

I'll Rams as a home dog to win outright. GOAT Nix to cover at Buffalo. For the other four I'll be a chalk eating weasel. If the Commies and Bucs goes to 4, I'd back the Commies.

Will put a large bet on the Ravens to cover.

Changed my mind on the Chargers as Harbaugh is 6-1 as road chalk this year.

Today I have the Ravens beating the Lions in the Superbowl.

Outright this week:

Chargers
Ravens
Bills
Packers
Washington
Rams

[Displaced Flames fan]

Chargers
Ravens
Bills

Eagles
Bucs
Vikings

[chummer]

Unless your team is in the playoffs I think most everyone's dream Super Bowl would be Lions vs Bills, odds of that are slim though at only 8%.

Yeah that spread is a lot lower than i thought.

I mean....did we just not see that exact game a couple days ago??

Im guessing that gets well into double digits by the weekend.

So what would be the nightmare scenario? Chiefs vs Eagles?

[Senator Clay Davis]

Depends on what you consider a nightmare. I kinda think an all-LA Super Bowl would really suck cause I genuinely think no one would care. Their combined 88 fans won't, we won't, it'd be a nothing game.

Yep, and sadly also my office playoffs Super Bowl pick. Mostly because almost everybody else I talked to has Bills vs Lions, gotta go against the grain to win.

Plus, Bills-Lions would be such a great matchup that you just know something is going to happen to mess it up..

That seems like pretty low odds for what would be a #1 seed vs. #2 seed matchup, not logically that unlikely?

[Paulie Walnuts]

Shawn Payton is 30-12 vs Bald coaches.

Two young dynamic QB's duking it out? I'd sign up to watch that.

[OutOfTheCube]

I'm never a fan of "teams that have won recently winning again" (unless it was ever my team of course, but yeah right) so to that end Chiefs vs. Rams is the worst Super Bowl. Really anything with the Chiefs is bad.

Yeah I don't think that's going to happen but I do laugh at the draft prognosticators thave gave the Broncos a poor grade for picking him. Raiders also got middling grades for taking Bowers.

[Erick Estrada]

I would love to see a Buffalo vs Detroit Super Bowl. But I will settle for any teams but the Rams, Eagles, and Chiefs/Broncos/Chargers because AFC West.
