Who’s winning the championship this year?
The last week of the regular season is now a wrap and playoff season is now upon us. With teams fighting for the last spots left in the NFC and AFC (as well as other teams slipping and ultimately being left out of Wild Card weekend), we’re only a few weeks away from the biggest game of the year and what every team strives for: the Super Bowl. Many games today decided the division champions and playoff seedings.
A few teams like the New England Patriots, Dallas Cowboys, Green Bay Packers and Seattle Seahawks, are red hot right now and look to be on pace to Championship Weekend, while others like the Pittsburgh Steelers, Indianapolis Colts are sleepers that might make a run. Then you have tumbling squads like the Arizona Cardinals and Denver Broncos, who started the season unfuckwittable, but have looked abysmal to end the year.
For those who are excited as we are about the playoffs, you can check out the full schedule for the games next weekend and beyond. Expect upsets, disappointments and grudgematches.
