Broncos > Bills > Ravens is what I’m pulling for in the AFC, so I will very possibly be cheering the Ravens again as I did last year.
I struggle between Detroit and Minnesota in the NFC
Bills vs either of them would be amazing because someone would have to finally win. MN would kind of be cool just because of the mutual Super Bowl futility of those two franchises.
-
I think The Chargers can beat The Texans,and that there's no pressure on Denver to win/no one expects them to win this game(House Money),and sometimes while it's nice to play at home,there's a lot more pressure on both Buffalo and The Ravens to finally close the deal this year. I don't think The Steelers can beat The Ravens. In the NFC the only team I feel pretty confident in is The Eagles.
-
Mostly agreed, but I’d say Lions over Eagles with very little confidence.
-
@Alex Lamar is such a wild card. Been fun to watch Balt this year
-
@Jett129 unfortunately I think you are right about the Eagles, but there was a similar narrative when Green Bay went to Dallas in the play offs last year. I’m hoping for the same outcome!
-
@mclaincausey Lions could do it if Phil is complacent
-
Why is Detroit the underdog versus Philly though? They just won the most competitive division in NFL history. They’re on opposite ends of the SOS rankings and came out with a better record.
-
@mclaincausey …because it’s Detroit and they’ll screw it up somehow?
-
@goosehd I guess that’s one way to look at it. Statistically though I don’t buy it. I’m just wondering if I’m missing something. I would guess the oddsmakers are on my side.
I think it’s just east coast bias by your PA and NJ folks 🥰

I don't remember his name,but the guy who has correctly picked the Super Bowl contestants and winners,correctly,for the last 5 years has predicted,in September,that Chiefs would beat The Packers in this years Super Bowl. He picked The Chiefs last year,and based on how they'd been playing,I thought he's wrong that year. I think his streak stops here,on both accounts.

As far as I can see Detroit is the current favorite to win the Super Bowl. The mere fact that the Eagles have to win 3 games just to get to the Super Bowl,usually,has some impact on the odds.

Brits, from the bottom of our hearts, we apologize.

@mclaincausey new strategy - degrowth?
-
@mclaincausey Jets are going to be the “Home-team” for 2025!!? Boy they really are desperate there in New Jersey! Time to head back to Old Jersey!!
-
@mclaincausey last year, we had the Bears, Jags, Jets, Panthers and Patriots over here. You really know how to spoil us!
-
As I said to my buddy, all the Jets need is a GM, a coach and (probably) a new QB and we’ll be all set for a stellar season! 🫣

@Nocturama During the pandemic,the running joke was if you want to be protected from Covid just wear a JETS jersey,and you won't catch anything. I think at this point JETS stands for Just End The Season!
