Once the Wild Card round is over, it’s time to take an initial look at the matches that await us in the divisional round next weekend.
Dear friends, you have ESPN, Round Wild Card he left us good games and some important surprises.
Except for the best opinion, Los Angeles Rams – who just two weeks ago lost in front New York Jets– gave an immaculate performance to defeat their division champion, Seattle Seahawks.
Baltimore Ravens defeat Tennessee Titans Not a surprise, but it was the victory of another team as a visitor.
what do you think about Cleveland Browns, no head coach and no training during the week due to COVID-19 problems and hitting Pittsburgh Steelers… Good.
Now Divisional Round brings very attractive pairs. Let’s examine them:
National Conference
Aries will have a difficult visit to the “frozen tundra” of Green Bay Saturday.
Sean McVay, head coach at Aries, gave a lecture on how to prepare a game to defeat the experienced Seattle the home. However, it seems unlikely to repeat the performance now against packers.
Ground attack angels with Cam Akers helped control the game clock to his advantage. Now he has to repeat it to keep the defender off the field as long as possible Aaron Rodgers.
Even so, it will be interesting to see the confrontation between the defense Aries and the offensive of Green golf, ordered from close range The most valuable player it’s in season Rodgers.
By sharing South Division from National Conference, will be the third meeting between these two teams in the year.
In regular season games, saints caused three ball exchanges. This was largely one of the reasons for the defeats pcs before New Orleans.
I don’t think the party is loaded this time towards saints, although they are still preferred. Let’s remember that saints have suffered unlikely eliminations in the playoffs in recent years.
One of them for a failed attack by Marcus Williams A Stefon Diggs from Minnesota Vikings the call ‘Minnesota Miracle‘. Another, for unmarked interference against Chauncey Gardner-Johnson from Aries. Gardner Johnson now play for New Orleans.
There will be a third duel between Tom Brady and Drew Brees, who will turn 42 this January 15th.
To lose saints, this could be the last game of his career Brees. It looks like he will announce his retirement at the end of the season.
American Conference
The champions will face at home a team that has become a threat in recent weeks.
Cleveland he arrives at high speed with his morale, after defeating twice in eight days smelter.
Thanks to a team that couldn’t count on its head coach, Kevin Stefanski, for positive for COVID-19. They also were unable to train at their facilities due to the same situation.
Even so, I keep the magic Patrick mahomes and his coach Andy Reid. Offensive deck of the city of Kansas is awesome.
There is room for question whether the three-week break Mahomes it might affect your pace, but I don’t think that’s the case.
Baltimore it was an awkward team.
The one of “nobody wants to face …” applies to them ravens, who arrive excited and motivated.
The offensive led by Lamar Jackson that weeks ago it was predictable, now it seems unstoppable. The defense remains highly respected and will face an offense driven by the sensation of the year.
In turn, Josh Allen, Great player! bills They have virtually no running attacks and everything goes through Allen’s arm and decisions.
Last year, the defender Buffalo had 20 touchdown passes. This season he raised the figure to 37.
But it wasn’t the only thing. Allen He is also the leader of this team.
Good proof that bills, but I have no doubt that they will reach End of conference.
Logic says that the locals are favorites, not because they play on their field, because the audience in the stands this year is not a factor, but they should win because they should be the best.
But this is it NFL, the most difficult league to predict.
