NFL playoffs this weekend

[Carta]

My picks::: Seattle, Pats, Pitt, and of course my COWBOYS!!!! How about u?

 

[TUGBrian]

dallas, pats, kc, atlanta

 

[Elan]

Cheaters, Chiefs, Falcons and 'Boys.

Expect both NFC games to be close; AFC -- not so much. Not wagering on anything.

 

[TUGBrian]

just for my own curiosity....nfl betting lines are:

atlanta favored by 4
pats favored by 16
kc/pit is a pickem
dallas by 4

As a lifelong Cowboys fan, I'm getting a little nervous that no one is picking Green Bay to win this game. They haven't looked as dominant as the championship Cowboys teams of the past, and for that reason, I'm termpering my excitement and hoping for one win at a time.

I've got Atlanta to win but not necessarily cover--Seahawks haven't travelled too well, the Pats to cover because they are playing a lame duck who beat another lame duck last week, and Pittsburgh because Bell.

 

[TUGBrian]

I think in green bay...they win easily.

at dallas, indoors, on turf...i think the dallas run game keeps rogers on the sidelines for most of the game.

Ty1on, Why live nervously in the past? COWBOYS are ready...Dak, Zeke, Dez, and my fave Beasley......Ace in the hole::::::Romo......C'mon Man

Ty1on, Huh?

 

[Ty1on]

Ty1on, Huh?

(I doubt Eli is as impressed with all this awesome firepower, having edged Dallas twice this season)

 

[pedro47]

DALLAS, NEW ENGLAND

 

[dsmrp]

Wishfully :
Seattle and Green Bay, so they can have another rematch for this season's reg game (GB won) and the 2014-15 NFC conf championship game (Seattle won). Bet both teams would lick their chops on another such game.

Dallas vs GB is a pick 'em to me. Sometimes teams with that bye week get upset by teams with momentum, and GB has plenty

I'LL pick our Green Bay Packers!

Also, Seahawks . . . Patriots and Pittsburgh.

I feel better now. The only fanbase more delusional than Cowboys' is Packers' hahaha. I mean, if one were to ignore the 49ers fanbase as irrelevant....

NFL Playoff Picks: The Bettor's Guide to the Divisional Round
By Justis Mosqueda, Featured Columnist/ NFL/ Bleacher Report/ bleacherreport.com

"In the Wild Card Round, every favorite covered. In what must have been a slaughtering of Vegas books by the public, we hope to bounce back during the divisional round in a four-game sample to get to .500 in the playoffs heading into the conference championship games.

As always, our lines come from OddsShark, which hosts as many Las Vegas and online books as you can count. We'll show you exactly where the best lines are, from a point perspective, on both sides of games.

We'll also reference TeamRankings.com, which allows users to check for specific trends, dating back to the 2003 regular season. With the help of those outlets, we'll try to get over that speed bump of a Wild Card Round result...."

I wonder if their picks will be better this week than last.

Pittsburgh @ Kansas City start time pushed back from 1:05 to 8:20 EST Sunday Jan 15 to try to avoid severe weather expected earlier in the day. The hope is authorities will better be able to deal with road conditions.

I hope so, since they picked the 'boys

Actually, in post number 29 of this thread:

http://tugbbs.com/forums/index.php?threads/nfl-2016-17-playoff-thread.249740/page-2

I predicted the Packers. And just to reiterate, I am also predicting the NE Patriots, PIT Steelers, and ATL Falcons.

That also changed the Networks' broadcast schedule. The NE/HOU game on Saturday night was originally scheduled on NBC but will now be in CBS. The KC/PIT, which was originally scheduled for early Sunday on CBS will now be Sunday night on NBC.

But that's all irrelevant to us viewers in Canada who, because of SimSub, have to watch them all on CTV.

Can Pittsburgh Big Ben play up to his level and will Pittsburgh play their hard & dirty defense? Pittsburgh will won by 3 points.

 

[TUGBrian]

dallas, pats, kc, atlanta

=D

 

[TUGBrian]

heres to hoping for an actual good game tomorrow!

 

[pedro47]

Atlanta destroyed the Seahawks last night.

 

[Helios]

I am late to this, but, glad Atlanta and NE are in. I am picking KC and Dallas today.

 

[pedro47]

The Packagers are destroying the Dallas Cowboys defense. The score is 21 to 3 with seven minutes to play in the first half of the game.
