Do you smell that. Thats the smell of sweet victory. 4 teams move on into the conference championships eliminating 4 other teams. Every game was close and just as entertaining. The weekend started Saturday afternoon with the Patriots and the Chiefs. The Patriots started dominating by scoring a touchdown in the first 3 quarters. 2 thrown the Gronk and one ran in by Tom Brady. Sadly for me, the Chiefs fumbled in a crucial point of the game losing 20-27. The next game was the best game this whole playoffs. The Packers were down by a touchdown and had the ball with 30 seconds left. At their own 3 yard line Aaron Rodgers bombed a throw down deep to Jeff Janis whole caught it with a 60 yard pickup. The clock was still running and the final play was a hail mary right into the center of the end zone. From out of nowhere Jeff Janis catches yet again tying the game and sending it into overtime. The Packers had a chance to win against the very strong Cardinals. The Cardinals had a different idea and on their first play after getting the kickoff, Larry Fitzgerald got a 64 yard pickup making them almost 5 yards away from a victory. And, just like Jeff Janis, Larry Fitzgerald got shoveled the ball and ran it in for the game winning touchdown. The final score was 26-20 and a Cardinals win. That was the end of a very amusing Saturday but the playoffs were just getting good. On Sunday the games started in the morning with Carolina verses Seattle. The game started instantly with points on the board. The Panthers scored 31 points making the score 31-0. But the Seahawks were not done yet, the came back and scored 24 unanswered points getting very close to a win. Unfortunately, the Panthers ruined that by picking up the onside kick that could have gave the Seahawks a chance to make it to their third Super Bowl in a row. 31-24 was the final score. Lastly, was the Steelers and the Broncos. This was almost like the Patriots game with the Steelers fumbling and them losing the game 16-23. That was the end of the divisional round and giving each team that won one week to get ready for the conference championships. In the AFC its the Patriots verses the Broncos. Or how I see it, Brady verses Manning. This game is just a quarterback duel and whichever team's quarterback does better will win the game. The other game is the Cardinals and Panthers. In this game it will be which offensive team has a better game with both teams scoring a lot of points this year in every game they played. Both games will be very tight but here are my picks for the next week and the Super Bowl winner.
Super Bowl: Patriots vs Cardinals
Blue: Win Red: Loss
PATRIOTS WIN!!!
