[Aurora Wolf 2,354]

Hi there, everypony! So this has been another wild season for Football. Only twelve teams remain in contention for the Super Bowl.

For the NFC, the Minnesota Vikings and Philadelphia Eagles have both clinched home field advantage in their brackets, and have finished the season tied for best record in the NFC.

Saturday January 6th at 8:15 Eastern Time on NBC, the Los Angeles Rams will take on the Atlanta Falcons at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.

Sunday January 7th at 4:40 Eastern Time on FOX, the New Orleans Saints will take on the Carolina Panthers at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.

If the Rams win on Saturday, they go to Minnesota to take on the Vikings in the next round, and the Eagles will host the winner of Sunday's NFC game.

If the Falcons win on Saturday, they go to Philadelphia to take on the Eagles in the next round, and the Vikings will hist the winner of Sunday's NFC game.

Then there's the AFC. The Pittsburgh Steelers and New England Patriots have both clinched home field advantage in their brackets, and have finished the season tied for the best record in the AFC.

Saturday January 6th at 4:35 PM Eastern Time on ESPN, the Kansas City Chiefs will take on the Tennessee Titans at Arrowhead Stadium.

Sunday January 7th at 1:05 PM Eastern Time on CBS, the Jacksonville Jaguars will take on the Buffalo Bills at Everbank Field.

If the Jaguars win on Sunday, they go to Pittsburgh to take on the Steelers in the next round, and the Patriots will host the winner of Saturday's AFC game.

If the Bills win on Sunday, they go to New England to take on the Patriots in the next round, and the Steelers will host the winner of Saturday's AFC game.

So place your bets, football fans!

It does sound weird since the Jaguars haven't been this good in ten years. I don't know exactly how I'm going to speculate that matchup though.

I guess I'll root for the Steelers in the AFC because they are my second favorite after the hometown Broncos who were so bad this season. And I believe they have the best chance of beating the Patriots when they finally meet. I kind of despise the Patriots.

As for the NFC? The Rams would be sweet but as long as it's not the Panthers who go all the way to the Super Bowl, I'm happy. The Saints better beat them on Sunday.

Rams vs Vikings nfc championship. Rams win

reason: rams are a pretty solid team and play good when a lots on the line. Finally playing teams like they played the nfc west all these years

pats vs steeers with pats winning 

reason: pats are the best out together team and are pretty unstoppable. Probably will be the best game of the year. 

 

Rams win super bowl

I'm going to go out on a limb and root for the Jags. Sure, Bortles isn't the best QB out there, but I like their defense and run game.

GO CHIEFS!!!

Also, love for the Rams and the Bills.

Actively rooting against Steelers and Patriots.

Rooting for Rams, and going to the Rams vs Falcons game this Saturday.

I'd like to see the Rams or Bills win it, just because it's been too long. Neither is likely, but hey, a guy can dream.

I'd considered driving to Cleveland for the Perfect Season Parade Saturday, but with parade time temperatures predicted to be around 8, maybe not.

Vikings for me. I hope we get the Rams as our opponent.
