I was hoping for a Minnesota Vikings presence on this day but they were thrashed by the San Francisco 49ers last Saturday. Here's a guess at the two teams that will be playing in Miami in two weeks.
AFC Championship
Tennessee Titans @ Kansas City Chiefs
Pick: Chiefs
Titans running beast Derrick Henry has rushed for over 180 yards in both playoff games. The Titans offense managed 14 points against the New England Patriots in the Wild Card round. A flurry of mistakes by the Baltimore Ravens were the main reason for the Titans 16-point win in the Divisional round. Henry is on a playoff run rarely seen from a running back but that running hasn't resulted in a lot of points. The Titans will need a lot of points to beat the Chiefs. The Titans will need more than they've needed so far from quarterback Ryan Tannehill. In picking the Chiefs, I'm guessing that they don't get more from Tannehill.
NFC Championship
Green Bay Packers @ San Francisco 49ers
Pick: Packers
Perhaps I'm still bitter from last week's game but I can't pick the 49ers. The Vikings inability to do anything against the 49ers and Nick Bosa's cheap shot on Brian O'Neill is still too fresh.
So, in the NFL's 100th year the league is getting a rematch of Super Bowl I.
