NFL playoffs

The playoffs have mirrored the regular season. 8-8 teams getting in; 10-6 teams going home. Only one team upheld its seed: Steelers. Cardinals were not supposed to win. Eagles were not supposed to win…what’s with all the birds? Anyway, I think it will come to mistakes in the NFC, and heroics in the AFC. The Cardinals and the Eagles both have the experience, the talent and the QB to beat the other team…who will make the least mistakes? That’s your winner. AFC? The Steelers are (yes, arguably) the flat out, look it up, better team. That means that either it will be the most boring game or the most exciting. Either the Steelers will systematically put away the Ravens, just as they did the Chargers; or, the Ravens will (and, honestly, no disrespect to a top-level team) pull something off and upset.
