Flea Flicker Divisional Playoff Predictions

Eight teams remain. Here's a guess at the four that remain when the Divisional Round is done.

Atlanta Falcons @ Philadelphia Eagles
Pick: Falcons
Maybe the Eagles can win with running the ball and defense. But I feel like Nick Foles will have to make some plays to support that. I don't think that he will.

Tennessee Titans @ New England Patriots
Pick: Patriots
The Titans got to this game mostly because the Kansas City Chiefs forgot that they had Kareem Hunt in the backfield. I don't think that the Patriots make a similar sort of mistake.

Jacksonville Jaguars @ Pittsburgh Steelers
Pick: Steelers
Many talking heads touting the Jaguars bring up their 30-9 defeat of the Steelers during the season. I don't think that those talking heads watched that game. It was 9-7 Steelers late in the third quarter before Ben Roethlisberger suffered a mind-numbing meltdown. Two pick-6s later you have a deceptive score in a fluky game. I don't think that Roethlisberger hands the Jaguars the ball five times in this game. Besides that, I watched Blake Bortles try and throw the football last week.

New Orleans Saints @ Minnesota Vikings
Pick: Vikings
Is there any other outcome?
