NFL Divisional Round Predictions

After a wild weekend in the wildcard where the Chiefs and Rams fumbled and bumbled their way to home losses, we get a few interesting matchups. The Pats look strong at home against the Titans, while the Steelers might struggle a little bit against the Jags(especially with news today Antonio Brown was sent home with an illness).  The NFC features a pair of very tight matchups.  The Vkings have a great combination of offense and defense, but the Saints are a big play machine that could apply early pressure to them.  The Falcons are traveling to Philly, where noone gives the Eagles a chance this week.  They still boast one of the upper tier defenses in the league, and Nick Foles is a solid QB, who now has had an extra week to prepare and work with the offense as the starter.  I still think the Falcons will win, but the program likes the Eagles to hold on at home.

Home Team Home Win Chance Away Team Away Win Chance Home Margin
New England Patriots 87.82 Tennessee Titans 12.18 14.1
Pittsburgh Steelers 63.34 Jacksonville Jaguars 36.66 4.2
Minnesota Vikings 63.86 New Orleans Saints 36.14 4.3
Philadelphia Eagles 57.58 Atlanta Falcons 42.42 2.4
