another 3-1 week, bringing us to 6-2 in the playoffs, and yet I have made no money because i insist on parlaying everything together. life is, of course, terrible
both games are rematches from earlier in the year; i expect one game to be similar and the other to be different. both games have the home team favored by -7.5; i wonder if the spread might drop to under 7 by game time
AFC: the super bowl representatives going back like 8 years have been either a 1 or 2 seed, which doesn’t look good for the titans, but looks good for mike vrabel’s dick, which he said he would cut off if it got him to the super bowl. this begs the question: did mike vrabel already cut off his dick in a deal with the devil? is it promised to the devil after the fact? what sort of monkeys paw effect will take place after, will derrick henry start plowing his wife? anywho, i think what we saw from the chiefs after the first quarter last week will mostly carry over against the weakest part of the titans defense: their secondary. if the chiefs can score early and often, the titans won’t abandon the run, but they may see themselves running out of time and pressing eventually; this will put the game in the hands of a passing offense that has failed to go over 100 yards in either of the first two playoff games, and as we all know, total yardage is without a doubt the only way to properly rank offenses. I think the game will be close entering the fourth before the chiefs finally pull away and cover the -7.5
NFC: I expect this game to go mostly the same way it did earlier in the year, though maybe not as much of a blowout. I think the 49ers defense is better equipped to slow down the packers than the packers defense is to slow down the 9ers. kittle is questionable to play last i saw, but im pretty sure he plays through it and no one in the packers secondary can stop him. the packers best chance may be to run aaron jones into the ground, but again, im not sure that works as the game comes to a close and they need to make plays. 9ers -7.5
yep, we are riding the favorites this week, top seeds to the super bowl, both win and cover
Chiefs 34, Titans 24
49ers 30, Packers 17
