    Which Home team is going to lose in the Divisional round?
    Green Bay @ San Francisco
    Seattle @ Atlanta
    Baltimore @ Denver
    Houston @ New England

    San Francisco.

    I could see Aaron Rodgers going into SF and winning that game carrying the Packers on his back. Colin Kaeperneick is going to have tremendous pressure on him. He hasn't started that many games. He became the starter to win the next 2 games. He has a super bowl caliber team. He's at home and the whole city expects him to win. Alex Smith is going to be there on the sidelines. He is facing an MVP QB on the other side of the field. Rodgers will do it. A perfect pass beats perfect defense and this is a QB league.

    I do NOT see Atlanta losing at home. Seattle is a bad match up for Atlanta but Atlanta can't lose at home. They've been hearing that they are chokers for 3 years. They will have the right plays drawn up, the right defense, stack the box etc.

    Baltimore got smashed by Denver at home a few weeks ago.
    Houston got smashed by New England a few weeks ago.

    I see a Peyton Manning/Tom Brady AFC championship and who ever wins that game wins the super bowl.

      From at match up stand point though I agree, Seattle is the best match up to beat Atlanta from X's and O's but I think San Francisco with the young QB against the reining MVP is prone to lose.

          I think at least one loses......possibly both. I think there is a lot of pressure on both NFC home teams. Mike Smith and Matt Ryan are under pressure to get their first playoff win. At the same time there is a lot of pressure on Kaep and Harbough for naming him the starter.

            They both have a lot of pressure but Atlanta only lost 2 or so games this year. They had pressure against a dangerous giants team a few weeks ago and it was over after a quarter of play. They are sick of hearing about losing in the playoffs, they will find a way to win. Matt Ryan has an outstanding record at home.

                The league will probably do everything in their "power" to make this game happen. To much money to be made.... I'm sure the league would also love nothing more than Rodgers vs the winner of that game in the Super Bowl.
