Mine is simple. The old vs. the new. Chargers at Baltimore.
1. Can Rivers make a run and finally claim a SB?
2. Is Gordon healthy to take a pounding against Baltimore's defense?
3. How will Lamar do? First playoff game. SD has a pretty good defense.
You never know how many chances you get. Rivers has a really good team this year, but unfortunately they got stuck in a WC game and have to be on the road most likely for for every game. This may be Rivers' last chance at claiming the top prize.
I also think the Colts-Texans can be a really really good game. The other two games are kind of meh to me. They should be good games, but go seahawks and bears!!!
I'll probably be most interested in the Bears-Eagles game and then looking forward to both the Chargers-Ravens and Cowboys-Seahawks.
This will be a global battle we haven't seen since Rocky vs Drago or Adonis vs Drago's son.
for football I am looking at Texans Colts as being a great game.
the other two meetings the road team won, both close 3-pt games, the first one in OT.
They easily could. But football can be crazy with injuries, bad luck, etc.... I think I meant to say is that SD has the team to do it. And thats not a guarantee on a year by year basis.

that's they way it's being treated, but I think Colts-Texans will be the best game of the weekend.

Oh, absolutely. I am just saying that the team has a lot of really good young talent in Melvin Gordon, Ekeler, Hunter Henry who I think is back for this game, Mike Williams, Bosa, James, etc. So, while Rivers is older he is still playing at a high level at least when he isn't forcing stupid throws and has a really nice supporting cast around him. They are definitely a team to watch out for like Baltimore. It sucks that one of these teams will not be moving on. These two teams can beat anybody in the AFC and probably the NFC. Not saying they will but rather they matchup well with most teams eapecially the Chargers who can do what Baltimore does and more. Bamtimore just does what they do better than LA in terms of defense and running the ball. But the Chargers have that other element in terms of their passing game that Baltimore doesn't have. And LA is no slouch with their D and running game either.
2) Seeing Philly lose
3) Seeing Rivers and his Chargers lose
4) Colt-Texans: don't really care
Chicago
Colts
Seattle
I want
Chargers vs Colts in the AFC champ game but I will settle for Chargers vs KC
and
Chicago vs Rams in the NFC champ game
Superbowl Chargers vs Rams
The NFL sucks. None of its games that don't involve the Giants are worth watching.
Go Bears .... but I'm worried Trubisky will shit the bed.
Chicago
Colts
Seattle

Bears/Rams will play in divisional round if Bears beat Philly. There’s no scenario that has Bears /Rams matchup in NFC Championship game.
But I still can't see anybody unseating New England. And the refs will have their marching orders in any Foxboro games to call 12-14 on the visitor and 0 on New England like we saw last year. Very tough to win in that building in the playoffs, even against a fading Brady
Lamar Jackson isn't going into that building and winning a game. At least an AFC title game would be in KC if they win their divisional round
Chicago
Colts
Seattle
I want
Chargers vs Colts in the AFC champ game but I will settle for Chargers vs KC
and

I agree with: Chargers, Colts, Bears, and Seahawks all winning their respected games this weekend... Thinking about parlaying that in LV. $50 to win $559, pretty decent odds.
The only game I'm not super confident on is the Ravens v. Chargers.
They get by texans, it'll be interesting as each game goes the momentum they feed upon
They should be an interesting watch
