Default NFL Playoffs - Who's your team???

I'm almost afraid to say it, because the end result is always the bitterly depressing same each winter, but...

Let's go, Bills!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Been a Chiefs fan since the early 70s ,
Never had a bad year , even when we weren’t winning -
Seems we always had some Hall of Fame players To keep us entertained

With the Giants rebuilding, I'm rooting for the Lions and the Eagles. Dan Campbell and Saquon Barkley both have Giants DNA.

I'm rooting for the Detroits to go all the way, Lions fans deserve at least one. A few of my friends are from Michigan, some of them aren't even aware of the curse of Bobby Layne

AFC - Bills
NFC - Lions

If that Super Bowl comes to pass, I can't lose.

After playing 17 games this year, only 2 teams have beaten the Vikings - the Lions and Rams. Monday the Vikes play the Rams. I do not feel good about this. The wily veteran Stafford against the deer-in-the-headlights Darnold.

I'd love seeing a Vikings-Bills Super Bowl, but I expect it to be the Eagles and Ravens.

It's funny, Buff beat both of the teams that earned byes in the first round - the only team to do so - but the Ravens made them look silly early in the season, so that's kind of a scary outlook (hoping to God the Bills take it tomorrow)!!!

Until my team completes its rebuild, I'll be bandwagoning the Lions, or at least whoever can keep Kansas City from a three-peat.

Same thing, year after year, from my Vikings. 14-3 season doesn't mean squat. Ugh!

My take on it is that the head coach deserves Coach of the Year to get 14 wins out of that QB and O-line. The best job of over-achievement we've seen in the NFL in a long time.

When the carriage turned back into a pumpkin, I wasn't surprised and won a modest bet by picking the Rams.

A part of me wants to see Stafford and Goff go at it in the NFC Championship Game, but that would mean 2 NFC East Teams get knocked out, and I usually root for the NFC East teams (except for Dallas), when the Giants are knocked out of it.

Giants might be out of it for another decade or so, the rate they're going.

The Jets are arguably the best team in the league this season, and I'm hoping for a long playoff run and possibly the team's first Stanley Cup championsh... oops! Wrong sport!

Dale Hawerchuk for the win Alex?

The year Topps gave up on the Jets......and every other NFL NHL team for a couple of years.

People forget just how good Ducky was. RIP
Just four players in history have scored more points than Hawerchuk in their first NHL season.
Oddly, two of the top five were Winnipeg Jets, with Hawerchuk and Teemu Selanne (second behind just Wayne Gretzky).

Great player. For some reason in the middle to late 80's, 1982 OPC Unopened Hockey boxes were readily available from various dealers in the CT and New England areas, and I must have busted at least half a case worth of boxes as a teenager, looking for Francis, Fuhr and Hawerchuk.

Back to the topic at hand.

Goooooo! .......Ravens????

I don't know. I can't decide.
