My predictions:

Bills > Colts 24-20
Seahawks > Rams 28-20
Bucs > Washington 28-17
Ravens > Titans 31-23
Saints > Bears 35-17
Steelers > Browns 27-17

I will say though, while I'm not predicting it, I wouldn't be too surprised if Chicago upset New Orleans. Don't think it'll actually happen (as I do predict NO wins big), but no one's talking about Chicago which makes me think they could pull off a sneaky win if their great defense plays exceptional, and plus Brees isn't 100% and the Saints have also looked a tad shaky over the past 3 weeks. Otherwise I don't really see any major upsets. Ravens and Bucs will be the only road playoff teams to win this weekend, though I think many expect TB to win tonight anyways

Colts coach probably cost them at least a chance to win in OT. Terrible decisions going for a 4th and goal from the 5 and going for a two point conversion when it wasn't necessary in the 2nd half. Both decisions came away with zero points. The game should really have gone to OT without those dumb decisions.

Refereeing at the end of that game was atrocious. 

Some incompetence there.  Luckily, it didn't cost the Bills in the end, though.

Yeah, but that's just a bad kick. Not putting up 4 easy points on a PAT kick and a 22 yard field goal is horrendous coaching. Those decisions cost the team 4 easy points. That's inexcusable in the playoffs.

Not to mention they have no idea how to run a two minute drill.  That was pathetic.

Lol wow Football Team Alex Smith is inactive tonight.

The refs in the last 90 seconds were pure garbage. Obviously the Bills got screwed on the call, but they also legit blew the whistle IN THE MIDDLE of the Colts making a play not once, but twice. Rivers completed a pass to the receiver the first time who caught it and went down and the refs whistled it to say the play didn't count. Huh?? And on the 2nd timeout, Rivers completes another pass which probably puts them in FG range, but it's called back because again, refs blew the whistle super late on the Bills timeout.

And this is in the playoffs...  ::)

Yeah Brady and the Bucs have absolutely zero excuses tonight if they lose lol.

Also, imagine being a Giants fan or player right now. You see the Eagles purposely lose a game to allow WAS to get in, and now Alex Smith isn't playing in the wild card round. I get the NFC East was terrible but it's no debate you'd rather watch NYG with Jones vs. Brady than Washington with Heinicke. Giants played the Bucs close earlier in the season too.

Think about the headlines and dramas. Giants vs Brady playoff games. Two teams went neck and neck earlier this year too.

Brady's legacy will take a hit if he loses to another backup QB in the playoffs
