Jordan love is better than any of those QBs at least imo 

2010 Packers?

Well... to each his opinion... I am not sure that I agree with it... now, I would take Love right now over maybe Darnold.. not sure about the others... but for arguments sake even if he is better he is certainly not head over heels above Goff or Hurts I think their respective teams are more complete than the Pack... but you know what... like I said who really knows... the next few weeks will tell the tale...

Why do we care what Barnwell - of the 10,000 prognosticators online - thinks?  

 

Every year there are weird tips and bounces, bad ref calls, momentous injuries, questionable coaching decisions, guys getting hot while others go cold, and other surprises that makes prediction a farce.  No one has a crystal ball.  We just have to wait and see what transpires.

As long as Wilson doesn’t turn the ball over I think Pittsburgh takes out Baltimore. The Ravens and Jackson have an affinity for laying an egg in the playoffs.

Baltimore is not beating the bills in Buffalo.

 

The league gets what it wants. And it wants mahomes vs Allen in the afc championship. 

 

I know the refs miss calls and sometimes that cost teams games, but the NFL isn't the WWE where its 100% scripted. The Ravens are definitely good enough to come in to Buffalo and win. I think a Ravens - Bills game would go down to the wire with multiple lead changes throughout the game.

Packers were a 10 win wildcard team and Rodgers got hot.

 

It's reminiscent of this Jordan love team imo. I am much higher on love than others 

 

We could absolutely see them in the championship

I fully expect a first round exit from GB…they are playing their worst football right now and have multiple key injuries, esp at WR.  No way they go into Philly and win.

[BADOLBILZ]

He picked the Bills to win it in that annual pre-playoff prediction article in 2022.   Clearly underestimated Josh's girlfriend's capacity for drama.

[corta765]

Eh seems pretty reasonable to me. He didn't predict WSH DEN lol

 

GB has a good potentially great QB with good coaching and system. They almost have beaten DET twice now and KC is the immovable object until otherwise. The NFC is a toss up even with DET 15-2 as their injuries are real and honestly any of the team outside of WSH I could see reasonably in the SB. The AFC I will be stunned if the AFC title isn't KC BAL or KC BUF soooo yea pretty on point if you ask me.

His Packer prediction is ridiculous...they've beaten no good teams since week 1, they're playing their worst football right now, and they're banged up.  I don't see any way they get past Philly, much less Detroit, etc. 

Two losses to DET, 2 losses to MIN, and loss to PHI...but now they beat any of them. Guess 6 time is a charm.

[Doc Brown]

He had the Chiefs beating the Cowboys in last year's Super Bowl so he was half right.

Spoiler - Chiefs beating Packers in Super Bowl...

 

WC: BUF over DEN, BAL over PIT, LAC over HOU, GB over PHI, TB over WAS, LAR over MIN

DIV: BAL over BUF, KC over LAC, LAR over TB, GB over DET

CH: KC over BAL, GB over LAR

SB: KC over GB

The only pick here that seems a bit off to me is Green Bay over Detroit, however with how dominant Detroit and even Philly have looked at points this yearI feel like a lot of people are sleeping on how good the Packers really are. They have a legit chance.

 

AFC: Kansas City, Buffalo, Baltimore 

NFC: Detroit, Philadelphia, Green Bay

 

IMO the Super Bowl match up will be from that list.

I would love for this to happen, but we all know if the Bills win the Super Bowl, it will be in the most arduous fashion imaginable.

The Packers. Who were 1-5 in their own division and have a broken QB. Yeah. Sure.

Packers are getting boat raced on Sunday.

[BillytheKid]

I think the Chargers will beat KC in the divisional round if they play. 
 

Then it will be Chargers at Bills for the AFC championship.

Half of this prediction bracket breaks if Jordan Love doesn't play. The other half breaks if the Chargers can bring an A-game in the division round. 

I may perform a handstand into a bucket full of wet cement, if Herbert & Burrow end up making a SB before Josh lol

Hope so. That would be a perfect playoff run with three home games to the Super Bowl.

If that happens I trust Herbert will be playing on a bum ankle…😜
