Conference games: who wins?

Route 9 : 1/13/2019 10:47 pm
Rams at Saints
Patriots at Chiefs

Who will play in the SB?

I got Saints vs Chiefs
Saints play like they’ve been playing  
bradshaw44 : 1/13/2019 10:49 pm : link
And it will be Rams for the NFC. The AFC championship is a coin flip. Wouldn’t be surprised either way.
I’ll play  
nygfaninorlando : 1/13/2019 10:54 pm : link
Saints win NFC. Seems like destiny after losing Minneapolis miracle last year. Plus that dome will be rocking next week. In the AFC, hope I’m wrong but I say Patriots. Brady and Bill will show why they are the GOAT. Pats looked like a machine today and I don’t trust Reid to win the biggest game for KC in forever. Again, hope I’m wrong, would like to see the Chiefs get a Super Bowl win.
I think the Saints...  
BillKo : 1/13/2019 10:57 pm : link
..will be clicking on all cylinders next week. I think the Saints hurt themselves resting their starters in Week 17.

There's something about the Rams the last six weeks that doesn't look right to me, esp with the QB.

Also like the Chiefs...............
I'm riding the home team wagon

Chiefs vs Saints with the Chiefs winning it all.

Call me insane but I think the Chiefs demolish Pats

Belichick vs. Reid...
Rematch of Nov 20th MNF shoot out...

Rams v Chiefs.

And O/U set at 75.
I think the Saints are vulnerable  
Essex : 1/13/2019 11:16 pm : link
and really haven’t played well since end of November, but just not sure Rams are the team to pick them off inside that dome. Also, Gurley had a good game yesterday, but he is going to need more touches and receptions for the Rams offense to move .
I like the Chiefs, just because I don’t think the Pats are that good, but really none of these defenses are reliable enough where you are picking a team that is going to have to win some sort of arcade shootout. This might be the four worst defenses every playing in a championship weekend. I can’t honestly remember defenses as bad as these (at least the Saints can stop run but besides that they are not very good).
After watching the Rams early this year ...  
Manny in CA : 1/13/2019 11:25 pm : link

I thought they were unstoppable, then they started to show flaws.

Reid probably has the best team; Payton & Brees are outstanding.

But the Zen Masters, Bill & Tom, they're peaking right now. THAT is very scary ...

Rams & Pats

Pats will win  
spike : 1/13/2019 11:48 pm : link
it all.
Pats  
Mr. Nickels : 1/14/2019 1:16 am : link
Saints.

Pats are winning the super bowl

In a year where they laid low and everyone talked about how they are done..They are the hottest team right now and I don't trust Andy and young Pat mahomes not to choke.


Saints are trash but they keep winning. Rams have also lost their identity and have been in a funk.

The story of the year was chiefs and rams. Rams looked like a potential undefeated best team of all time type of team..
The Saints slow start was just shaking off the rust

Saints vs Chiefs for the SB. Both of these championship games are gonna be tough ones though.

The Rams rely so much on play action that teams who can stifle their run game without having to fully commit their LB's to doing so can really limit them.

For I think the 6th year in a row, we will not see a lower than 2nd seed in the super bowl. For all those years we had wildcard teams go on streaks in the 2000s and early 2010s it's quite interesting.

Atlanta was a #2 the year they choked to New England in the Super Bowl. That was the only #2 I can think of. All of the other Super Bowls since the Baltimore-San Francisco matchup in February 2013 have been 1 vs 1 matchups.
Some Folks think REID can't win the big playoff  
BlueLou'sBack : 1/14/2019 6:40 am : link
games. Coaches are important, very important, but they don't actually play the game.


Reid had McNabb, Mr. Puke.

Now he has Mahomes, the real deal.


Look for the Chiefs to jump the Pats, and the hegemony of Bill and Tom to start their fade out. NFL - not for long. They've been on top of the game long enough.

Ram's... I am concerned about Gurley's health. If he's 100%, I would pick the Rams.

Watching the Rams corners on Saturday made me think Brees  
JohnB : 1/14/2019 7:19 am : link
is going to light them up.

Saints
Chiefs (I hope)

The flaw was losing Cooper Kupp. He was the big play guy in their offense. They aren't the same team.

Every week is different but saints looked very beatable and I really liked what the Rams did. Plus I don't like Sean Payton. Pats are the Pats.
I just want the AFC to win the SB...  
Dan in the Springs : 1/14/2019 9:27 am : link
Too much hype for the Rams, and I don't want Brees getting another ring.

I can live with KC getting one, almost unbelievably I find myself rooting for Reid when I absolutely hated him for a decade plus. If the Pats win, it's just another notch for an already established dynasty.
I..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 1/14/2019 9:29 am : link
think it will be the Rams and Pats.

NO just hung on by a fingernail against a team that isn't nearly as good as the Rams on offense.

Should be a good game though
I'm going to go with

and I honestly would have no feel for who wins that game.
Hard to pick against the Pats in big games

A little too much logic there lol.....

Resting two weeks really hurt the Saints coming out of the gate on Sunday and it almost cost them. Almost similar to Green Bay in 2011 against us. Their defense played really well after that Lattimore pick.

I can't see the Rams defense keeping up with the Saints, and Goff just doesn't have the same look after Kupp went down with that knee injury.

But should be great game, though.
RAMS / CHIEFS

I've been saying it ALL YEAR, because I am a fucking genius!

OR

It's been plainly obvious all season.
