In the Wild Card round, all of the home teams won, and the power ranks only got 2 games correct. Meanwhile, my 3 month old son and dog each got 3 games correct.
This week, there was no movement in the top 5, mostly because 4 of them had byes. The Giants win over Atlanta moved them up to 6th.
So with that said, let’s get on to the predictions:
#3 49ers over #4 Saints – The Niners have a slight edge thanks to their stingy defense and great turnover ratio (compared to the sub-par Saints)
#1 Patriots over #26 Broncos – Yep, the Broncos are still #26 even after winning last week. On paper, this should be no contest, but last week’s game shouldn’t have been either
#2 Packers over #6 Giants – The Giants are closing the gap a little, but the Packers are just too much for them
#5 Ravens over #10 Texans – Bad matchup for the Texans here
Since my son picked the Lions last week, he had to repick the NFC. Here are his picks for this week:
Ravens over Texans
Broncos over Patriots
Giants over Packers
Saints over 49ers
My dog had the Steelers winning, so he had to repick one game. Here are his picks:
Ravens over Texans
Patriots over Broncos
Packers over Giants
49ers over Saints
