With my Patriots out of the postseason for the first time since 2008-09, I've decided to adopt two teams - one from each conference - that I'll become a fan of for this season's playoffs.
In the NFC, it's obviously the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, because of Tom Brady and, to a lesser extent, Rob Gronkowski. In the AFC, it'll be the Cleveland Browns, as I'd love to see the poor fans of that seemingly permanently moribund franchise have something to celebrate.

This year is kinda put up or shut up for the Aaron Rodgers era Green Bay Packers. If they don't at least *make* the Superbowl, their legacy has to be one of failure, despite winning the title in 2010.

Honestly? The Packers feel like one of those NBA teams that's built to light people up the regular season with gaudy numbers and gets beat early. The Chiefs feel like they need to WAKE THE F UP fast or they'll find it's too late to "turn it on". Bears/Browns/Ravens/Rams/Bucs play too inconsistently to win the necessary amount of games in a row to win it all. Steelers and Seahawks feel similar in that they are too reliant on somebody pulling a game out of their ass, but they both can do it. BUT i don't have faith they can do it three times in a row. I honestly think Washington can win 1 game. No I won't bet on them, but they have a real chance to get 1 win. I put their chance at 2 wins to be near zero. But I wouldn't be shocked if they caught the Bucs by surprise. Colts have Phillip Rivers. Dude can beat everybody and lose to anybody. Zero chance they win the Superbowl because Rivers won't go 3 games in a row without a meltdown performance for the ages. So after all that, I think the "Real Contenders" are: Chiefs, Bills, Titans for the AFC. Saints seem to be the only "solid" for the NFC with Green Bay and Seattle being on the outside looking in. But I can't help but think the Saints are going to find a banana peel to slip on. I just have a gut feeling Kansas City and the Packers are going to get caught with their pants down. I really want to say the Bills win it all, but that feels "too perfect" to happen. I'm going Titans vs Seahawks for my final answer. This game is a coin flip. And my coin says Titans win. And I fully expect this guess to be blown up after week 1 of the playoffs

As long as Josh Allen doesn't turn into a pumpkin like he did last January, I could see them going toe-to-toe with the Chiefs in the AFC Championship.
For upsets, I like the Browns taking out the Steelers. They've only played the Steelers the last two times they were in the playoffs in 1994 and 2002. Third time will be the charm, as long as they feet Chubb and Hunt.

Browns have 2 more players and coaches with covid one is Stefanski, they're done.
The Chiefs tend to turn it on and get up for big games, they've played bored in a lot of games like they just wanted to get to the playoffs, but they still got up for the Saints etc.

This dude just doesn't like the Chiefs, no rational argument other than that. Why should ANYONE like them? They happily keep abusers around, they have one of THE most overrated QBs of all time that everyone worships as if he was Joe Montana, their defense sucks ass HARD, and the fanbase has gotten arrogant over a completely undeserved fluke SB win to the point where if anyone points out the team's flaws they act like that person claimed Hank Stram didn't exist. No, I DON'T like them, I have extremely good reasons not to like them, and I'm not getting any reason why I should change that any time soon.

No seriously hes in year 4 has an MVP, a SB MVP and is neck and neck with Rodgers for a 2nd MVP! What does he have to do to prove to "you" he's one of the best playing atm? Matthew Stafford is overrated, Rivers is overrated, but Mahomes isn't. Just except it the dude is gonna be the face of the league for a long time to come and by the end of his career as long as he remains healthy he'll probably be at the top or near the top of all the QB records

Oh, and Stafford and Rivers are not overrated.
