screw the nfc without the packers
I wish it was Dallas playing the Saints since we have the Saints first round pick. Dallas had a better chance to knock off the saints because of the D
 
Going for all the road teams. Has all 4 road teams ever won in the divisional round?
Hope there's a first if not, an all-NFC East championship game would be the ducks nuts

All of them should be cracking games

The op seeds are no absolute certainties. You'd expect the Patriots to win at home though, and whilst the Colts are some chance, Kansas should win at home. The other games are real toss of the coin matches.

Not sure, but historically this round usually has more home teams winning, compared to the wildcard and championship weeks.

Colts +6 @ KC - Seems right but lean KC. Hopefully a shoot-out but think Mahomes should exploit Indy's pass defense in the end more than Luck can the other way. Andy Reid looms.
Cowboys +7 @ Rams - Unlike Seattle, I don't see the Rams being so silly to run, run, pass, punt all match against Dallas' strong run defense.
Chargers +4.5 @ Pats - Seems generous for the Chargers but it is forecast to be below zero weather which is a question-mark for the warm weather Chargers.
Eagles +10 @ Saints - Lots of points for Big Dick Nick.

In a season when so many young quarterbacks have played so well, a couple of old veterans are about to square off in the playoffs.

The Chargers are heading to New England to take on the Patriots, and that means 37-year-old Philip Rivers will take on 41-year-old Tom Brady. Their combined age of 78 is the oldest ever for two starting quarterbacks in an NFL postseason game.

Brady also had a share of the previous record, set three years ago, when he was 38 and faced off against the 39-year-old Peyton Manning in the AFC Championship Game.
There was once an even older pair of quarterbacks in a playoff game, on January 3, 1971, when 37-year-old Johnny Unitas and the Baltimore Colts beat 43-year-old George Blanda and the Oakland Raiders. But although Blanda played almost the entire game, he came on in relief of the 29-year-old Daryle Lamonica, who started for the Raiders. So the record for starting quarterbacks belongs to Brady and Manning, and will be broken next weekend by Brady and Rivers.
