Have to go with 'my' Patriots and Seattle to make it to the Super Bowl. If it turns out that way, Patriots will bring Malcom Butler out of retirement for a goal line stand interception.

Great picks for the championship games! I agree that the Broncos fans are having a rough week. I've been busy with some sports image editing to make custom posters for the playoffs, and Flux2Max makes the players look incredibly realistic. Hopefully, the games are close!

Fans in Denver must have whiplash after going from victory euphoria to the Bo Nix news right after the game. I wish I could believe the Broncos had a shot tomorrow.
