I was just screwing around with some of these match ups. I've decided for the hell of it... just to post my predictions. Keep in mind I only made 5 points in the College Bowl Contest. Go easy on me.
Kansas City VS New England
I like New England because of Home Field... Tom Brady and Belichick. I like Alex Smith's conservative approach... he is a game manager. But at some point... you need to open it up. I don't think he has the weapons to do so. Only way to beat Tom Brady is Zone Coverage. We've talked about this numerous times. Did Andy Reid do his homework? Probably not.
New England Wins
Green Bay VS Arizona
Aaron Rodgers doesn't have the weapons to throw to. Doesn't have the best running attack to turn to. Carson Palmer playing the best football ever.... has many weapons to choose from. Who's that RB for Arizona? Johnson? Kid is a stud. I don't think there will be magic for all the cheese heads this year.
Arizona Wins
Seattle VS Carolina
This odd line speaks for itself. What the hell is PICK EM? Seems like vegas wants to insult my intelligence? Clearly Seattle should be ready for this game. Odds makers are telling you they'll be. Seattle will play team ball like a well oiled machine.
Seattle Wins
Pittsburgh VS Denver
No Antonio Brown? No DeAngelo Williams? Well oh sh#$. Denver just wants to get to the AFC Championship game... and they know Pittsburgh will be missing some offensive weapons. I expect casual/conservative play calling from Denver.
Denver Wins Game. Also, Pittsburgh +8
New England VS Denver (AFC Championship Game)
This is a tough game to call. Honestly could go either way. I have a good idea who wins the Super Bowl though. Anyways... I'm going to say that Tom Brady wears out a little. Denver's D figures him out.... Denver's offense will run more consistently.... and they'll head to the Super Bowl.
Denver Wins Game
Seattle VS Arizona (NFC Championship Game)
They played each other during the last game of the regular season. Seattle was AMPED UP! You can say... well Arizona had nothing to play for... game was meaningless. Well, it looked liked Seattle wanted it more. I think they knock out Arizona once again.
Seattle Wins Game
Denver VS Seattle (Super Bowl 50)
Again, should Denver or New England be here? If New England would of made it.... this would of been your Super Bowl rematch game. This time... Seattle would beat New England. As for Seattle matching up with Denver... I think Russell Wilson has an A+ game. He becomes your Super Bowl MVP.... and the rest is history.
Seattle Wins Super Bowl 50
