The BEST Wild Card Weekend

This weekend, we had two overtime games and every one was a one score game. I went 3-1 with my picks because of the stinky Saints choking against the Vikings. THEY WERE MY SUPER BOWL PICK CMONNNN. Anyways though this makes it easier for the Packers haha. I'm going to go through each game and then predict who I think will win the divisional games.

First we had the Bills and Texans. Josh Allen played really well, he made a few mistakes but ultimately he looked a lot more poise than I expected him too. However, in the end, Deshaun Watson made some big plays when it counted, helping his team go on a 22-3 run to help the Texans move on to face the Chiefs in Arrowhead. The Texans beat the Chiefs the first time around in Arrowhead this year, but playoff Mahomes will not let the happen again. This will be a close game but ultimately the Chiefs will win 35-28.

The Brady dynasty is finally over. Titans controlled the line of scrimmage and Derrick Henry played absolutely fantastic. Brady didn't play horrible, but didn't play well enough to win. Is this the end of Brady in New England?? Who knows. The Titans now play the Ravens in that divisional. This will be a closer game than people expect. Both these teams are really good at running the football. It will be a lower scoring game, but ultimately Lamar Jackson is the better quarterback and they should win 24-21.

The Vikings upset the Saints in New Orleans in OT. Their defense played outstanding by not letting Brees make a lot of good plays. Kirk played well enough, and Cook really helped the offense move the football successfully again. They play the 49ers in the divisional. The 49ers will dominate this game in my opinion. Kirk will be going up against a much better defense, and will ultimately not perform that well. I'll take the 49ers 31-13.

Carson Wentz was out pretty much the whole game. I thought from then, the Seahawks would dominate but they actually only won 17-9. They will have to play a lot better to beat the Packers in Lambeau. I'm going to take the Packers in that game, just because the Seahawks are beat up, and I think Rodgers will get hot. I'll take Packers 28-17.

All games were super close and most people on Twitter have agreed that this has been the best wild card weekend. Next weeks games should be just as fun to watch. Those are my predictions, let's see what happens.
