Brown BLog Predicts: NFL Playoffs - Round 1 Wild Card Round

An exciting weekend of playoff football is upon us and the Brown BLog is here to predict them all

Chargers at Texans

The Texans have not played well in over a month and the Chargers seem to be peaking.

Brown BLog Predicts:    Chargers 27    Texans 13

Steelers at Ravens

I hate that these two teams have to face each other in the first round because one of them will have to lose and that's a shame.   But I have to go with Lamar in this matchup.  He is the player destined to win it all this season.

Brown BLog Predicts:    Ravens 27    Steelers 20

Broncos at Bills

Easiest game to predict here.  I feel like the Broncos have played above their ability and caught breaks all season long.   The Bills will be ready for them.

Brown BLog Predicts:        Bills 30    Broncos 10

Packers at Eagles

Another obvious outcome.   The Pack are beset by injuries and Jalen Hurts has been cleared to play coming off a concussion and he's had a week's rest.   Eagles coast

Brown BLog Predicts:     Eagles 24    Packers 10

Commanders at Buccaneers

I follow the local media here in Cleveland and respect them all but they all have to moderate what they believe in order to maintain relations with the Browns.  Hence most of them are predicting an early exit for Baker Mayfield, because, well because it's less embarrassing for the Browns if playoff and franchise QB Baker Mayfield exits early.    Sorry Browns.  It won't happen.   Baker is going to keep making you look like idiots

Brown BLog Predicts:    Buccaneers 40    Commanders  24

Vikings at Rams

Unlike some pundits, I think the Vikings are for real.
