2015 NFL Playoff thread

The Cowboys-Lions fiasco has been beaten into the ground, and the result of the game will never change... so how about shifting the focus to this upcoming weekend?

Who does everyone got?

I'm taking the Ravens, Colts, Packers, and Seahawks.

I've got the four home teams, but can see the Colts possibly taking out Denver.

[ResAlien]

I'll say Pats, Broncos, Packers, Panthers. Cam shocks the world!

Any updates on how Rogers is doing? That could be the difference between Green Bay annihilating Dallas, and GB struggling to cover the spread.

Seahawks


Ravens

Historically home teams win this weekend 75% of the time.

Although I would like to be a homer and take the Ravens, I think NE's corners are actually too good and the Ravens don't have a game breaker on offense.

I like Payton to choke again, although the weather needs to get a little closer.

Weather forecast at game time:

NE = -7C clear

SEA = +8C partly cloudy

GB = -7C partly cloudy

DEN = +7 partly cloudy

He may just be playing a bit of possum, but i have a feeling he isnt going to be real mobile which hurts his game in a big way.

"I plan on Aaron playing Sunday," McCarthy said after Wednesday's practice. "Today's schedule was for him to stay exclusively in the training room. There's still some things that he needs to work through. We'll see what tomorrow brings, if he'll be able to practice. It's day-to-day, but everything points in the direction of him playing."

Rodgers met Wednesday morning with team physician Pat McKenzie, who determined Rodgers wasn't ready to practice.

"It just kind of depends on how it feels," Rodgers said. "I met with Doc. I've seen him every day. Nothing really changed on the schedule. This was kind of the plan from the start. It's progressing, but we'll see how it feels tomorrow."

When asked whether he will be able to do everything he normally can, Rodgers said: "We'll see."

"It's Wednesday," he added. "So hopefully it keeps progressing."

I don't disagree, but this is why I don't understand why we can't have a new thread for each week (season too). I've mentioned it before. People can continue to beat whatever topic into the ground on a previous week and others can move on and talk about the next week in the next thread.

Instead, we have these gigantic megathreads that are honestly tough to keep up with.

Just a suggestion.

On that note, gotta go with the home teams. But I might suggest the best chance for an upset is Carolina. They're on a roll and playing great defense. If Newton is on, they might be able to score enough to win. It would be a huge upset, mind you.

I'm going with the four home teams this weekend. Don't see any of the road teams pulling off an upset, but I like Dallas' chances the best for doing so, especially if Rodgers isn't going to be close to 100%

Managed to get my hands on tickets to the Seahawks game on Saturday. So freaking excited!!!

Baltimore (+7) over New England
Seattle (-11.5) over Carolina
Dallas (+6.5) over Green Bay

anyone know a place in town to get a Patriots window decal and plastic license plate holder?

I wrecked my car and didn't take those things off and want to get new ones for my truck.

Thanks

Well they made that look easy. Impressive

[transplant99]

yup...very impressive.

[CedarMeter]

This is crazy. Ravens just moving the ball at will. Smith is playing lights out so far. 14-0

[Flabbibulin]

Someone forgot to tell the Pats this was a playoff game.
