Peyton Manning hasn't even gone one-and-done for the 10th time in his career and we're already bloviating about how he's going to increase his legend.
This is setting up to be the perfect storm of everything I detest about the coverage of Peyton Manning. He's already got the injury excuse locked up and ready to go, but now he has the additional excuse of off-field distractions from the Al-Jazeera report, and he can also play the "I was rusty from being out for so many weeks" card. Of course, if Manning wins Super Bowl 50, he'll be the greatest quarterback of all-time, but if he loses and does so in spectacularly embarrassing fashion like he did in Super Bowl XLVIII or last January against the Colts, it won't impact his legacy one iota.

not going to lie I like the Redskins chances against the Packers. I still don't expect them to do any real damage in the playoffs but I think that they can make it into the second round this time.

KC over Houston, Pittsburgh over Cincinnati, my stubborn hope over the Seahawks (I don't care how irrational it is, I gotta have faith), and Green Bay over Washington.
I'll stop pulling for the boys in purple and gold when I'm dead. #SkolVikings

I've got no dog in this fight, I guess I'll pull for the teams that haven't won one yet.

That Green Bay/Washington game is going to be a chore to watch with the Packer Fanclub calling the game. Aikman/Buck calling Packer or Cowboy game is like listening to Micheal Cole/Lawler/JBL try to tell us why we should love Cena as he's wrestling a crowd favorite.

The current high temperature forecast for Minneapolis on Sunday is 1 degree. That forecast might even be on the high side, bright clear skies, they should be in the negatives come kickoff.
Almost a home game for GB between the weather and how well Green Bay fans travel

They play Washington, not Minnesota

KC over Houston, Pittsburgh over Cincinnati, my stubborn hope over the Seahawks (I don't care how irrational it is, I gotta have faith), and Green Bay over Washington. I'll stop pulling for the boys in purple and gold when I'm dead. #SkolVikings What does that hash tag mean precisely? One of the teams in my NFL.com fantasy league had that as their name. I thought it was just an amalgam of his name and the Vikings, but now I see it means something by itself.

Somehow, despite the team being called the Vikings, I sometimes forget the number of Scandinavian immigrants that found their way to MN. My family is from the Mankato area but we are a mix of English, German, and Sioux with some other European things mixed in for variety.

Hey, this'll be the first time in years that ABC will have an NFL game. Granted, it's an ESPN simulcast, but still.
I still say ESPN on ABC is a complete joke.

I feel the need to say that I completely love all the old cheesy fights songs and NFL Films music. Feels like a lost art these days. Seriously, the San Diego Superchargers Song is something of legend.

The greatest upset this week that can happen is if Cincinnati will actually win a playoff game.
But, my picks;
Steelers over Bengals Chiefs over Texans Seahawks over Vikings Packers over Redskins
