Vegas has both home teams as 3-4 point favorites. I’m taking both home teams.

Tampa, yes. I think Buffalo is junk and will probably bet a lot on the KC -3. But, I'm guessing that is the square play.

Saints beat the Bucs in the reg season by 35. Bucs just beat the saints by 10. That’s a 45 point swing by essentially the same teams. With the nfl, anything can happen.

getting Vita Vea back this week would help their chances a lot.

That regular season game was a true everything going one way game. I think the fairer comparison would have been week one which was a 11 point game, so a 21 pt swing. which is equal to the turnover swing in the playoff game. If Tampa can win the turnover battle they can and will win in Green Bay.

I think GB is going to win this time, but wouldn't be shocked if TB came in and beat them. GB was moving the ball pretty easily before the two Rodgers picks. After those two picks, the Packers basically gave up.

Bills vs Packers. The ultimate drunk driving fanbase showdown.

It’s got to be with fumble recovery. Rodgers is so careful with the ball. But he did throw two against tb earlier this year

Tampa, yes.
If the Bucs can get Fournette/ Jones going on the ground again. A little surprised at the modest success they had against the great Saints run defense.

Both can win on the road. I think one of them will but I don't know which one.

I am taking Green Bay and Buffalo. I think the Packers aren't going to serve up turnovers like the Saints. Brady has been pretty pedestrian, most of the Bucs scores came when they started in Saints territory. I'm taking the Bills out of the AFC because I think they are a hot team right now while the Chiefs seem to have been sputtering a bit. It wouldn't surprise me if Mahomes pulls out a win though.

Me too. Which probably means Brady/KC Super Bowl.

Green Bay has choked more often than not in the Playoffs and Tampa has a good defensive line that will pressure Rodgers all day.

Kansas City should be fine.

Bucs by 10
Chiefs by 13

I'm really looking forward to both games. I'm thinking Buffalo has the better chance to pull off the upset out of the two. I won't be surprised if both win though. I'm expecting both to be really great games.

Tampa Bay has not done anything special on offense in 2 playoff games. They struggled against an average Washington team and benefited from several turnovers against New Orleans. It’s not like Brady has been lighting it up

Not that it means anything but I just read this stat and found it interesting

This is a terrifying stat. Mike Pettine has lost EIGHT STRAIGHT GAMES AGAINST TOM BRADY, giving up an average of 34 points in those losses!

2013: Patriots 23-21

you're talking about their offense why are you using the redskins TEAM? The redskins defense is good. So is the Saints'. They both rank in top 5 ppg, yards per game and yards per play allowed in the nfl.
