Due to the enormous success of the regular season challenge, I have decided to host a similar challenge for the playoffs. The rules of the challenge will remain the same, and can be found here in the old thread. Since there are fewer games each week and overall, this competition will be much tighter. I look forward to lots of participation from everyone, but please remember that all discussion of the NFL playoffs should take place in the Everything NFL thread, not here. Please limit this thread to predictions ONLY. And without further ado...

And here are my predictions to start things off:

New Orleans Saints at Seattle Seahawks - No brainer, wakka wakka.
New York Jets at Indianapolis Colts - Nigga please, Super Bowl? Overrated Jets are one and done.
Baltimore Ravens at Kansas City Chiefs - Not playoff ready yet.
Green Bay Packers at Philadelphia Eagles - This is the toughest game of the weekend. GB defense upsets Philly at home.

Predicting away teams to win 3 out of 4 of the games. Interesting.
 
New Orleans Saints at Seattle Seahawks- 7 win team hosting lol
New York Jets at Indianapolis Colts- Colts are too beat up
Baltimore Ravens at Kansas City Chiefs- Baltimore defense should stop the Cheifs
Green Bay Packers at Philadelphia Eagles- Eagles are struggling, Packers blitz Vick hard
 
New Orleans Saints at Seattle Seahawks - Saints are 6-2 on the road and Seahawks shouldn't even be in the playoffs.
New York Jets at Indianapolis Colts - Jets are overrated, that is all.
Baltimore Ravens at Kansas City Chiefs - The Ravens defense should be able to shut down the young Chiefs
Green Bay Packers at Philadelphia Eagles - I think the Eagles are going to have a bounce-back week, but I can see this going either way.
 
New Orleans Saints at Seattle Seahawks - Bus
New York Jets at Indianapolis Clots - Peyton needs to have a good game
Baltimore Ravens at Kansas City Chefs - The Ravens are no match for the Chefs
Green Bay Packers at Philadelphia Eagles - Vick redemption, just kidding

I miss Buffaro
 
New Orleans Saints at Seattle Seahawks
New York Jets at Indianapolis Colts
Baltimore Ravens at Kansas City Chiefs
Green Bay Packers at Philadelphia Eagles
 
Maybe I'll have better luck here?

New Orleans Saints
at Seattle Seahawks (wanted to see the Rams make it, oh well)
New York Jets at Indianapolis Colts (Jets may be overrated but the Colts have been inconsistent)
Baltimore Ravens at Kansas City Chefs (Baltimore seems like the better team)
Green Bay Packers at Philadelphia Eagles (Eagles haven't looked too good the past two weeks)
 
New Orleans Saints at Seattle Seahawks
New York Jets at Indianapolis Clots
Baltimore Ravens at Kansas City Chefs
Green Bay Packers at Philadelphia Eagles
 
New Orleans Saints at Seattle Seahawks Predicting the Saints to win the Fiesta Bowl I MEAN wild card game???
New York Jets at Indianapolis Clots JETS SUCK (feet)
Baltimore Ravens at Kansas City Chefs Cassel's gonna go off
Green Bay Packers at Philadelphia Eagles Hunch.
 
The remarkable part about all of these games is that many of the teams have barely lost games.

Packers losses: 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4
Jets losses: 1, 9, 42, 4, 4
Ravens losses: 5, 3, 5, 3

Colts are nearly as even heeled, losing 4 games each by close margins.
Colts: 10, 3, 2, 3, 22, 3

New Jersey Jets
New Orleans Saints
Kansas City Chiefs (massively unfair home field advantage)
Green Bay Packers

New Orleans Saints at Seattle Seahawks
New York Jets at Indianapolis Clots

brit to take the trophy
 
New Orleans Saints at Seattle Seahawks - Seattle shouldnt be here and they are brutal.
New York Jets at Indianapolis Colts - Sanchez is banged up, but it will be close.
Baltimore Ravens at Kansas City Chiefs - Reminds me of the Bal/Miami game from a few years ago
Green Bay Packers at Philadelphia Eagles - Eagles defence isnt very good and they have played 1 good quarter of football in the last 3 weeks. GB is very balanced as well.
 
New Orleans Saints at Seattle Seahawks - Call me crazy. NO hasn't looked good for the past few weeks, and they aren't an outside team (seattle is outside right?). 12th man help plzz.
New York Jets at Indianapolis Clots - idgaf
Baltimore Ravens at Kansas City Chefs - I think the chiefs can wear down the Ravens defense, and BIG BOWE can finish them.
Green Bay Packers at Philadelphia Eagles - Mike Vicks no.1 weakness is blitzes getting to him. Clay Matthews hungry. The packers have a strong passing game as well so it should be able to eat up that young defense.

muahahahaha lets get it underdogs.
 
Since there are so many predictions, I think I will be more strict with the rules. Missing ANY pick for ANY reason will result in immediate removal. I will also be strictly enforcing the "one hour before game time" rule. There should be no reason to miss any picks in the playoffs.
 
New Orleans Saints at Seattle Seahawks
New York Jets at Indianapolis Clots
Baltimore Ravens at Kansas City Chefs
Green Bay Packers at Philadelphia Eagles

Hardest one for me was Jets v Colts because Jets have been slacking lately. Of course I'll be picking the Bears to go all the way so that will likely bite me in the ass at some point.
