Mulled these picks over longer than usual this time. Probably longer than healthy. But, here goes.
Conference Championships
Sunday January 19th 3:05pm EST Tennessee @ Kansas City Titans 28 - 21 Chiefs
6:40pm Green Bay @ San Francisco Packers 17 - 31 49ers
First, the easy one. Does the "under the radar" 13 - 3 Green Bay Packers with the giant Aaron Rogers X factor pull out a shocker as a 7.5 point underdog? No, I don't think so, I like the San Francisco defense to handle Rogers and hang on to this one.
Then, the hard one, the real brain puzzle. Folks have framed the Kansas City vs Tennessee as a speed vs muscle matchup and yeah, it's kinda like that.
Nobody expected Tennessee to be in this position, not many had them getting by the Patriots but they made it look kinda easy. Then, of course, nobody had them beating Baltimore, including me. They kept the best running quarterback in check and ran the ball down their throats on the other end. Can they do it again? They've made be a believer I think they can.
