Predictions:

Titans vs. Chiefs:

It would be a low-scoring game in the first half. However, in the second half, the chiefs would try to "open it up." They would try to throw the ball rather than run the ball. They would make some mistakes and the Titans would take advantage (fumbles and interceptions.) The Titans would run out the clock and win the game.

Final score: 28-24 in favour of the Titans.

Packers vs. 49ers:

This game is definitely going to be a shoot-out... It all depends on who is the faster quarterback. Aaron Rodgers has more experience than Jimmy G. So Rodgers is less likely to make mistakes on the field. Even though the 49ers have home field advantage, they cannot stop the speedy and explosive offense of the Packers.

Final score: 42-31 in favour of the Packers.

Have you watched a single 49er or Packer game this year? Packers aren't putting 41 points on that 49ers defense at home. Shootouts are for bad defenses. They happen organically from time to time but neither of these offenses are good enough to put those kind of numbers on these defenses. The 49ers have given up the least amount of explosive plays in the league this year and are 100% healthy so your prediction is silly.

49ers are going to strangle the Packers all game in all phases, I expect a blowout

Titans-Chiefs is the more exciting magic. On paper obviously the Chiefs seem better, but the Titans have some of that freaky football magic in them this year. I think Derrick Henry continues to chug along and the Titans D makes just enough plays to barely eke out a 24-23 win

Niners Saints was 48-46

GB & Chiefs are both favored by 7.5

I’m thinking SF GB will be the better game and the Chiefs cover.

SF is favored by 7.5, not GB

When SF played GB earlier this year they crushed em 37-8. I think the Niners roster just outclasses GB top to bottom. Maybe QB is the only debatable position, and even then this isnt the same Aaron Rodgers as we’ve seen in the past

My bad.

I’ll take Rodgers over Jimmy G on the big stage. I’m not going to put money on it but I’d say GB not just to cover but to straight up win.

We’ll see.

I covered that. Packers offense and the Saints offense are two entirely different species.

Jimmy has shown all season that he can face the pressure of big games.
