I'll predict Carolina vs. New England in the Superb Owl with New England winning it all.

Denver over Philly.

If the Packers lose on Sunday, Carolina is my team to cheer for. I also may want to see Denver win, even though I really like nothing about them. The sole reason is that, while completely true that Peyton is a bit worse in the cold, people horrendously overblow his playoff struggles. Like, it's there, but not that much.

Man... you guys love Philly.

I think Philly has a pretty good shot at making it to the Super Bowl as well. They are the toughest team to prepare for because they run such a unique offense. As long as Foles continues to play at a high level I think they can compete with anyone.

For whatever reason, my gut is telling me neither Seattle nor Denver make it to the Super Bowl.

To be honest I love Denver and Seattle but you have to take some sort of darkhorse in a pick these days. I like Carolina as a fan, but I don't think they can do it.

I think one of the "defensive teams" will get in from the NFC. I think Seattle, Carolina and the 49ers are all neck and neck. The only reason I really pick Carolina is that I think Cam is a beast and this may be his coming out party. I just can't see Philly, as good as their offense has been, being able to hang up enough points on one of Carolina/Seattle and then doing it again against Carolina/Seattle/SF.

Obviously it's the NFL playoffs, so anything could happen though. Foles has certainly been insane and McCoy is in the argument for best non-QB player in the league.

I just don't see Denver doing it. Manning is so good, but I just think he's going to be poop if they get into a game with some swirling winds or really bad weather... which is entirely possible with them playing in Denver. His arm is just so weak at this point. But if the weather holds up and conditions are clear, I like their chances a lot.

Say what you want.

I picked Denver over Seattle in the preseason and I will stick with that.

However my championship games were way off

I had Seattle versus Atlanta and Denver versus Houston.

So I will go with Seattle versus New Orleans, Carolina versus San Fran, NFC Title game Seattle versus San Fran...SEATTLE takes the NFC

AFC: Denver versus San Diego and New England versus Indy, AFC Title game Denver versus Indy.....Denver takes the AFC

Denver crushes Seattle in the Superbowl.

Looking at the football outsiders playoff odds they have us at 2.4%. Honestly, I like those odds. Basically the same thing as having one number on a roulette wheel. That actually seems like incredibly good odds for us to take home the Lombardi when u consider where we were after the Lions game 5 weeks ago. I'll take those odds:

NFC-
Green Bay over San Fran
New Orl over Philly

Green Bay over Carolina
New Orl over Seattle

Green Bay over New Orl

AFC-
Indy over Kansas City
Cincy over San Diego

Denver over Indy
Cincy over New Eng

Denver over Cincy

Superb Owl:
Godgers over Payton "it's so cold it hurts my surgically repaired neck to follow through on my throws, I forfeit" Manning

Boom, throw owl rings in the air like they confetti biatches!!!

If we beat Sf and @SEA, I will be really sad to against philly.

Its really tough to pick.

NO > Seattle
GB > SF

Carolina > GB
NO > Seattle

Carolina > NO

Cincy > SD
KC > Indy

NE > Cincy
Denver > KC

Denver > NE

Super Bowl:
Denver > Carolina

...with that said, my gut says Denver may get knocked out in the Divisional Round.

I'm a realist.

Nah, I just think they are the better team, they're hot and they've had our number recently.

BUCKnation · Post #17 » by **BUCKnation** » Fri Jan 3, 2014 11:49 pm

Cinci vs. Carolina is my bold pick for the SB, but really I think it will be Denver and whoever wins the game on Sunday for the NFC.

The Packers will make the superbowl, I'll say against Denver.

Charles Lee Ray · Post #19 » by **Charles Lee Ray** » Sat Jan 4, 2014 12:14 am

Thus is a revenge tour for us, we whooped the bears for hurting rodgers. We will kick the whiners asses for beating us the last 3 games, we then beat the she hawks for the fail mary and then we take down the donkeys for stealing a Super Bowl from us!

And in the NFC championship game we will beat Carolina for, um, choosing the name the panthers, which is too close to the name packers, when they entered into the league as an expansion franchise!! Pay back is a b*tch Panthers!!!!1!1!!

But seriously I like that line of thinking, beating the Bears, Niners, Seahawks and Broncos for the Lombardi would be the ultimate path of revenge for the Packers and the fanbase. Or, in the words of our fearless leader Arod, the ultimate "reckoning". Winter is coming!!!!!
