Brown BLog Predicts: NFL Playoff Predictions - Divisional Round

 Another extremely cold weekend presents an amazing group of football games.   The Brown BLog had a solid 4-2 record predicting Wild Card Round outcomes.   Here's our stab at this weekend's slate of games.


Texans at Ravens

The Texans and CJ Stroud are for real however the Ravens are simply too much for the Texans at this stage of their development.  

Brown BLog Predicts:        Ravens 24    Texans 13


Chiefs at Bills

Toughest prediction of all the weekend games has to be this game.   The Bills are at home and have been playing extremely well.  The Chiefs have Patrick Mahomes (and Taylor Swift).  Emotionally speaking the Bills have years of baggage to overcome, although Sean McDermott's motivational tactics certainly are world class.   Can the Bills learn from the motivational speeches of Sean McDermott and unite their efforts to the same level of the September 11 terrorists or will the Chiefs continue their pattern of excellence when the pressure is on.   Honestly I don't know but my gut says "don't bet against Patrick and Taylor"

Brown BLog Predicts:        Chiefs     31    Bills    28


Buccaneers at Lions

I want Baker Mayfield to lead his team to victory so badly that I will be rooting for him to lead his team to win in spite of my prediction that the Lions are going to romp in this game.   I believe in what Detroit are doing in every part of their organization and it's going to continue to pay dividends this Sunday.

Brown BLog Predicts:        Lions 31    Buccaneers    17


Packers at 49ers

The Red Hot Packers are led by their emerging franchise QB Jordan Love and frankly I don't believe in Brock Purdy.   My upset special this week is the Pack defeating the Niners on the road in a thriller.

Brown BLog Predicts:        Packers 28    Niners 27
