NFL Playoff Predictions

[Daydream Nation]

This has been the best weekend of football Ive ever seen.....

I can't think of one better. I didn't think the KC/Buffalo game would actually exceed our expectations.

Not to mention it looked like it wasn't even going to break 50 points with the game winding down. But I guess 3 TDs and a FG in the final 2 minutes, plus 1 in OT will change that.

There's only been 2 times a QB has 300+ Passing yards, 60+ rushing yards and 4+ TDs in the playoffs. Josh Allen this week, Josh Allen last week. And a quarter stopped him from on the field to counter punch.

I had a bunch of small same-game parlay's that failed. But I got 2 that landed.

Anytime Kelce TD - Last play of the game lol
Parlay of Cincy ML, 49ersML, and Rams ML - $5, $95win. Helped out a lot lol.

I wish I remembered Allen rushing yards. Same with Mahomes. It was a massive miss for me.

Upcoming....I took Cincy+7 early vs KCC. Feel like that line will inch closer to +6.

Bills should have squibbed that kick. Or at least put it in play so that they would have burned some time.

Maybe they thought Hill was back there (he wasn't) but he was returning punts, maybe they were scared he was back there and thought it's 13s, we can hold them.

I think the bigger issue was the Bills defending for a TD in that 13s and not a FG. They had guys defending 50yrds off the line for some reason, and rushing 4 when you know Mahomes needs to throw it quickly, so why rush 4? Lots of what ifs. If the Bills got a sack instead of giving up 15yrd pass...Bills are in.

Tough way for a season to end, but Mahomes went Super Saiyan. You can't defend Mahomes and the Chiefs when they are in that zone.

Right. But you can stop 1 guy on a kick return.

I dunno. I just can't understand these teams making simple coaching errors.

Tyreek did return only 1 punt in the game and returned it 45yards, and Pringle returned 1 kickoff for 26yrds, and Hughes returned 1 punt for 15yards.

I'm not denying that it was possibly the wrong decision, but this could have been the reason for just kicking it through the end zone.

They have to change the way they do OT in the playoffs, it’s simply not fair for a team to win it based on a coin flip. Felt really bad for Allen that he just sat there knowing he’s not getting an opportunity to tie the game. Glad Rodgers is out of it…..again.

You mean each team doesn't have a chance to go on offense? That's a joke.

If a team scores a touchdown on the first possession, it’s over. If they score a field goal, the other team gets their turn on offense. It’s ridiculous.

I’ve hated it even as a Pats fan who watched them do this to the Chiefs a couple of years ago. Or even more famously to the Falcons in the infamous 28-3 Super Bowl comeback.

Both teams should get a chance on offense, especially in today’s offensively minded NFL

Yep agreed. What are they so concerned about in making it longer?? They've already added TNF, Week 18, and more playoff teams. They are clearly not concerned about taxing these players.

With the numbers staying at Cincy +7 and SF +3.5.....I am still all over the underdogs.

[2014olympicgold]

Active bets:
Higbee - First TD +1100
OBJ - Anytime TD +140
Cincy +7 -109

Parlay:
Burrow - O274.5passing yards
Mahomes - O274.5passing yards
Mahomes - O29.5rushing yards
Hill - O64.5y receiving yards
O54.5pts
+600

Then I did some Superbowl winner bets:
SF49ers - +450
Cincy - +900
KCC - +120 (I used a free $15 bet on this to split the odds)

I don't know how smart it is to use the free bet on +120 KCC odds, but I figured I'd have something to route for come the SB with Cincy/KCC bets.

[Feenom]

Chiefs, Rams super bowl. Maybe Burrow has a game but don’t see the 49ers being there. Who knows.
