The NFL Playoffs are finally here. We kick off the Wild Card round with a story of this season has been that nobody has any clue who is capable of making it to the Conference Championships, let alone the Super Bowl.
Two smaller groups inside these playoffs are generally accepted as better than everyone else. In the AFC we have the Bills, Chiefs, and Ravens — while in the NFC it’s the Lions, Eagles, and Vikings. After that it’s anyone’s guess. Of course, this also assumes everything will play out exactly the way we think, and if this season has taught us anything it’s that nothing should be taken for granted.
If you’re looking for one game to circle on the calendar this weekend as the toughest to pick it’s got to be Vikings vs. Rams on Monday night. The Vikings are coming off a brutal loss to the Lions that shattered Sam Darnold, while the Rams really found their footing to close out the season. Are they a potential dark horse in the NFC? There’s certainly the talent, and that will make this game fun to watch.
Here are our picks for all the games.
