Good luck finding a consensus when it comes to Super Bowl favorites this season. Eighteen members of The MMQB/SI NFL staff took a crack at predicting the postseason, and each voter's bracket is below. As for who we think is going to Minneapolis in February, no one got more than half the vote.

AFC CHAMPION: Patriots (9 votes), Chiefs (5), Steelers (4)

NFC CHAMPION: Eagles (9), Seahawks (4), Rams (2), Vikings (2), Saints (1)

SUPER BOWL LII CHAMPION: Eagles (4), Patriots (4), Steelers (3), Chiefs (2), Rams (2), Vikings (2), Seahawks (1)

Not sure if I should be happy that so many of the analysts picked the Bills to make the playoffs... or if I should just be objective and realize that they probably see the AFC as a weak conference

At this point it's a numbers thing. We have 3 losses whereas most of the teams in the hunt below us have 5. We also have tiebreakers on a lot of those teams.

I just want someone other than NE to represent the AFC in the Super Bowl. Assuming it's not the Bills, I want to relax on the couch, no stress, and hope for a close back and forth game.

 

A nice Eagles/Chiefs SB would be fun If the Bills don't make it.

And also picked us to beat PIT in the first round

I could see a scenario where we get to the AFC Title game...

 

We go to JAX (South winner) and take them out in the wildcard. Meanwhile, the Titans (wildcard #2) take out KC (West winner) in the wild card round because the game matters so KC will stink.

 

Divisional round We get Pittsburgh, who can be beaten. especially since Ben loves his INT. Meanwhile, NE gets a bye to the AFC Title game by facing the Titans, who stand in for the Texans this year as NE's practice session for the title game.

 

Bills/Pats for the AFC Title!

They got us winning a playoff game? Nice. Ill take it.

Against Pittsburgh no less.  I'd hate to be the visiting team there in a playoff game.

Hostile ground. Homefield advantage is real. I like our defenses chances vs the steelers tho. Rothlisburger gets INT happy sometimes and we look like we can scheme that into existence. I wonder how this years offense would do compared to the egg they laid last season.

Earlier this season, Ben looked like he had enough of football. Looked very disinterested. Could be his last rodeo this year!

Anyone thinking the Rams win the Superbowl needs to have their head examined. They have a long way to go to get where they need to be, though they will be a contender.  The Falcons have too much work to do as well

Remember what team we are dealing with here. When the Bills officially clinch a spot then we can talk matchups. Until then.......

I like Klemko's version.

 

I guess its too much to ask the Bills to beat the cheats three times in one season though ;)
