The 2019 NFL Playoffs are officially upon us. Let’s predict what will happen this postseason, and which teams will meet in Super Bowl 53.
Four months ago, 32 teams embarked on a voyage in search of gridiron glory. Now, only 12 teams have yet to begin their offseasons as the 2018 NFL Playoffs are set to get under way. It’s been a crazy 17 weeks of action, and the next month is sure to offer just as many twists and turns.
So what should we be expecting between now and Feb. 3? It’s anyone’s guess, but I’m going to do my best to predict the future.
In all honesty, my predictions weren’t that accurate last year. After nailing almost every matchup back in 2017, I was fairly off the mark in 2018 — my crystal ball told me the Minnesota Vikings would win it all. However, I’m confident that my predictions will be more on the mark this postseason with a couple of clubs standing out from the pack.
And yet, anything can happen during the NFL playoffs. We’ve witnessed countless surprises throughout the 2018 campaign, with supposed contenders tumbling while projected pushovers turned into legitimate threats. The postseason brings out the best in players, so your ideal approach is to expect the unexpected.
With that in mind, let’s take a look at my predictions for the entire 2019 NFL Playoffs.
