Playoff football is officially here. No overthinking. No spreadsheets. Just NFL instincts, experience, and a little bit of respect where it’s earned. Let’s get straight into it.
Rams vs. Panthers
We spend enough time in Charlotte to know what’s really going on. Maybe we brought some of that energy with us — maybe not — but either way, we’re rolling with the Rams. They’ve been here before, they know how to move when the lights get bright, and that matters in January.
- Pick: Rams -11
Packers vs. Bears
The Bears haven’t been nice in a long time. Respect to Caleb Williams, but right now we’re taking Green Bay. Playoff reps count.
- Pick: Packers -1
Bills vs. Jaguars
Everybody keeps sleeping on the Jaguars, but we’re not doing that. Still, let’s be real: Buffalo is giving one. Josh Allen’s playing at another level, and this team has already knocked off some real heavyweights. James Cook is nice, give us the Bills.
- Pick: Bills -1
49ers vs. Eagles
We’re divided on this one. Joe likes the Eagles, but Jada wants the 49ers. Sometimes you’ve gotta make your own dance.
- Pick: 49ers +4.5
Chargers vs. Patriots
Patriots. They’re back, they’re giving points on the spread, but we still like it. Simple. Don’t overthink it.
- Pick: Patriots -3.5
Texans vs. Steelers (Monday Night)
Monday night, season on the line — give us the Texans. End of story. They’re younger, hungrier, and ready to send somebody home early.
- Pick: Texans -3
Who’s Winning It All?
When we zoom out and look at the Super Bowl odds board, a few things stand out:
- Patriots +1000
- Rams +425
We like the Patriots or the Rams to go all the way. Buffalo’s right there too (+1000). That’s the beauty of football — any given Sunday, especially this year. It feels wide open.
MVP Talk
Quarterbacks always dominate this conversation, and that’s just how it goes. Still, if we’re talking about who deserves real love:
- Drake Maye
- Trevor Lawrence
- Matthew Stafford
Drake Maye’s been special. Trevor’s right there too.
