Over the last three seasons a friend and I have been picking playoff brackets during the preseason, and usually we've been 50-60% accurate.

Unfortunately, this season's projection looks A LOT like last seasons, so I've decided to throw caution to the wind and pick a couple of longshots. I'm betting on the Colts to slip, the Ravens to show some serious improvement, and the Patriots to finally be unseated (which as a Raiders fan, I've been praying for since 2001). I consider my AFC picks and superbowl pick to be ludicrous gambles, but picking a bracket that looks nearly identical to last years is simply not that fun. Besides, if this comes out right, I can deny that I ever doubted myself and look pretty dang smart


Here's my playoff bracket. Division champs listed first, wildcards listed second in these matchups.

Wildcards:
Colts vs Broncos, Broncos to win.
Chargers vs Ravens, Ravens to win.
Rams vs Seahawks, Rams to win.
Packers vs Vikings, Packers to win.

Division Championships:
Broncos vs Steelers, Steelers to win.
Ravens vs Patriots, Ravens to win.
Rams vs Eagles, Eagles to win.
Packers vs Falcons, Falcons to win.

Conference Championships:
Ravens vs Steelers, Steelers to win.
Falcons vs Eagles, Eagles to win.

Superbowl:
Steelers vs Eagles: Steelers to win.

The NFC has really screwed with your predictions, and the Colts don't look like they will bow out sop early, or even have to worry about a wildcard spot...
