Closest games were Raiders-Bengals and 49ers-Cowboys.....but the final score for both of those games are deceiving because the eventual winners led most of the game. |

I wouldn't be surprised if tomorrow's game is the best of Wild Card Weekend.
I think it will be close as is usual typically in the NFL Playoffs, but the results this year so far have been an exception.
I am going to take the Rams in a tight one with more defense than expected....call it 24-21. _________________ Love, Laker Lanny |

Yep Rams could easily lose the game if Matthew Stafford doesn't give us one of his best games. |

I think San Francisco has a good shot to beat Green Bay.
Also, leaning toward the Bengals and Buffalo in the AFC Championship Game. |

SAS clowned Michael Irving on First Take this morning. Michael walked off the set at the show's end. He didn't seem angry. He seemed defeated. He'll be back next Monday. I don't think SAS is going to let up.
Cowboy fans show just how classless they are. They threw things at the referees after the loss. They should have been throwing them at Mike McCarthy & Dak.
Jerry Jones didn't come out and say it but I think Mike McCarthy's gone. He totally mismanaged the clock. It was about the 4th or 5th time he did it this season.

Well, the only thing I'm really happy about so far is the Patriots getting punte in the first rond.
Hopefully the Rams win out tonight. _________________ LAKERS 2019-2020: NBA World Champions! |

I was hoping they would go further in the playoffs. I like Belichick. He's the best coach currently in the game. Other great coaches did the things Belichick is doing. The difference, they didn't get caught. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

I'll forgive the Pats after Belichick is gone, sort of like how I've forgiven Brady after he left the Pats. _________________ LAKERS 2019-2020: NBA World Champions! |

As a Bucs fan, I personally hope the Rams win tonight for two reasons.
- Kyler Murray is just too much of an X factor for me. The Bucs defense has not faced someone that can really replicate his abilities this year. It is not that I think they are better than the Rams....I do not....but the Rams just have more conventional weapons.
- Lost to the Rams the last two years in regular season. Need to beat them to leave no doubt. It was similar to my thoughts on playing the Saints in the playoffs last year.
The Cardinals and Rams will be very tough games for the Bucs to pull out a win. |

The Arizona offensive play calling is terrible. You have a strong pass rush and you call deep drops and deep routes? I don’t know how some of these guys keep jobs in the pros. _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023. |

Now more and more people are wising up to the fact that Kingsbury may be on the hot seat. I've been there for a while in thinking he's not a good coach.

Kind of a disappointing weekend from a close games standpoint, but I hit all my bets so it works for me.
Maybe we will see tighter games this next weekend as the pretenders (Steelers, Cardinals, Eagles, Raiders, etc.) are gone now. _________________ Love, Laker Lanny |

Bosa and Warner both got hurt against Dallas. If both can go and be close to 100% against Green Bay, SF definitely has a chance to win.
If those two can't go though, I think Green Bay wins for sure. Don't see SF's D being able to get enough stops without their best pass rusher and defensive play caller. |

Super Bowl odds after Wild Card weekend....
Packers - +380
Chiefs - +425
Bills - +500
Buccaneers - +550
Rams - +750
Titans - +850
49'ers - + 1100
Bengals - +1300
I have no real issue with these with the exception of the Rams.....I would have them in the +600 to +650 range. |

This is basically telling me that the Chiefs-Bills winner will be the new favorite after this round. |

Why would they jump the Packers....assuming the Packers look good in a win? |

Well KC and Buffalo are playing each other, so one has to be out, the line is only 2 or 2.5 or so, and yet their odds are barely behind the Packers, who are a 5.5-point favorite. I guess we'll have to find out what happens after this week, but my thinking is that even though KC and the Bills have to play each other, the oddsmakers are viewing that as a de facto AFC title game, whereas the Packers would still get the Bucs or Rams and that may be viewed as a harder road. |
