Im not an expert on college football by any means, but it seems like there are four quality prospects, Travis Hunter WR/CB who will go first, Cam Ward from U of Miami the top QB, Graham a defensive monster from Michigan and Hunters QB from Colorado who’s name escapes me. The Pats already have their QB in Drake Maye so they might have to trade up after today!Quote:

Chargers, Ravens,Bills, Eagles, Commanders and Vikings are my picks. Although id love to see the Steelers and Broncos progress and set up a Russell Wilson-Sean Payton face off, that would be absolutely box-office.Quote:

I think the Chargers then I agree with your first 4 but I think the Vikings might get one over on the Rams.Quote:

An absolute shame a game featuring an LA team has been moved to a stadium representing 'State Farm' given the damage that particularly heinous company have done to tens of thousands of CA residents recently.Quote:

and at least 11 dead so far in LAQuote:

Surprised, the Texans were everyones AFC pick pre-season but theyve flattered to deceive. Could they be a surprise package deep into the playoffs?Quote:

steelers have too much to do i think, 21-0 Ravens at HT
FT 28-14 Ravens
FT Bills 31 Broncos 7
Ravens will go to Bills, Ravens beat bills 35-10 in September, Josh Allen v Lamar Jackson...look forward to that one
Packers so far look outmatched against the Eagles in Philly. Only 7-0 but Jordan Love playing with a bad elbow is getting no protection and running for his life.
After an awful first half Love seemed to spark into life there in the first drive of the third quarter. Still only a field goal though.Quote:

Packers done very well to still be in at after 40 mins losing Doubs then reed just minutes later was a big blow, the FG they got only came after once again not getting a TD from a 1st/2nd & 3rd & Goal, Jacobs was so unlucky getting tackled just a yard from scoring a TD, he is so strong even with a tackler dragging his jersey to try stop him along with a few others.
i didn't fancy the commanders to get a win in Tampa, that's their first play-off game win since 2006
Vikings/Rams tomorrow with the winners going to Philly
AFC
Kansas Chiefs v Houston Texans
Buffalo Bills v Baltimore Ravens
NFC
Detroit Lions v Washington Commanders
Eagles v ???
Currently in Bradenton Fl with family. Trip booked & unfortunately cancelled for the Rams game due to the fires. Gutted hopefully a wee trip to Philly before I’m home if the Rams can make it through tonight. On the tele box for me tonight instead. Devastating pictures coming out of CA.Quote:

The smart money is on the home teams here, but very hard to bet against Lamar and Derrick Henry. Ravens Bills should be another classic.
To make a case for all the away teams...Quote:

The Chiefs haven't exactly set the heather on fire this season and Houston ran them close earlier in the season so it will likely be another close one.
But I agree, they should be home wins. The Ravens Bills game is the only one that seems too tight to call on the face of it, it should be a classic.
I actually think Washington Detroit could be a classic too, a score-fest is a real possibility, youre right. Jayden Daniels is a super cool customer and it doesnt seem to matter they dont have a running game to speak of either, defences cant stop him. Reminds me a bit of RG3 before he got injured.Quote:

Yeah definitely, and Terry McLaurin is a brilliant WR, one of the best in the league but always overlooked when people talk about the best receivers. I'm looking forward to the game, selfishly I would like the commanders to win as I think they would be an easier opponent for the eagles if we make it through...Quote:

This time Lions, this time, our time.
Houston's kicker Fairbairn is having a mare, that extra point miss was a bloody shocker
13-12 kansas
they're making it so hard for themselves with all those penalties
Mahomes sideline cheating has been going on for years, that dive was a disgrace. Should be an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty. But then hes almost on his ass and he finds Kelce for the td that probably ends the game.Quote:
