Get ready for some intense football action as the NFL playoffs are here! But who will emerge as the ultimate champion in Super Bowl LX? Our football experts have weighed in with their predictions, and it's a thrilling race to the finish. But here's where it gets controversial...
AFC Wild Card Round:
- The Houston Texans are expected to extend their winning streak against the Pittsburgh Steelers, but the other matchups are anyone's guess. The Buffalo Bills and Jacksonville Jaguars are neck and neck, while the Los Angeles Chargers just edge out the New England Patriots.
NFC Wild Card Round:
- The Los Angeles Rams, despite a recent dip in form, are predicted to make a strong playoff run. The Chicago Bears are expected to edge out the Green Bay Packers due to their resilience. The Philadelphia Eagles, the defending champions, are also predicted to advance.
AFC Divisional Round:
- Justin Herbert's injury might be a concern, but four editors predict the Chargers will reach the AFC Championship Game for the first time since 2007. The Buffalo Bills are also projected to make their second consecutive appearance. New England gets three votes to advance, but the top-seeded Denver Broncos have only two editors on their side.
NFC Divisional Round:
- The Seattle Seahawks are expected to return to the NFC Championship Game, and the Rams are also a strong contender. The Chicago Bears are predicted to advance to the NFC title game for the first time since 2010. The Eagles, however, might struggle to defend their NFC crown.
AFC Championship Game:
- There's no clear consensus on who will represent the AFC in Super Bowl LX. Half of our panel predicts either Houston or Jacksonville will make their first Super Bowl appearance, while the other half is betting on Buffalo or New England.
NFC Championship Game:
- The Rams could make history again. Los Angeles defeated an NFC West rival to secure their spot in Super Bowl LVI, and most editors believe they'll do it again. Surprisingly, the Eagles received only one vote to return to the Super Bowl.
Super Bowl LX:
- The Rams are predicted to win their second title with Matthew Stafford, drawing two votes. The Bills also get two votes to finally lift the Lombardi Trophy. Seattle earns two votes to win the franchise's first championship since 2013. New England would win its seventh title with a victory on February 8, while the Jaguars would secure their first.
