Conference Championship Playoff Predictions

Detroit Lions Vs San Francisco 49ers
The Lions have had one of the best seasons of the entire existence of this team and now, they are on the precipice of their first ever Super Bowl, but the 49ers are in their way, and this will be a tough task for the Lions. The 49ers have a stacked roster of talent beginning with McCaffrey on offense, Deebo, and Kittle. Then you move to the defense with Bosa and Warner, and the great play calling from Shanahan. While the Lions roster does stack up well against the 9ers, I’m not sure if they will be able to keep up if things get out of hand. The Lions play with heart and grit so they won’t be intimidated by the moment, but the 49ers play a mostly flawless game, and even though last week was a terrible game for them overall, they still got the win, so that shows how good they really are. This will be a close matchup, but I believe the edge will be the 9ers defense. The Lions have a lot of young inexperienced guys on offense and I feel like the 9ers defense will take advantage of that and make the crucial plays in the end to force the pressure on Goff to make all the plays. Goff has proven he can perform under pressure, but if he is unable to get bailed out at some point it will get to him and he may throw a crucial pick, or get sacked towards the end of the game with everything on the line. The Lions have had one hell of a season, but I think the 9ers are the better team and will get the win in this one.

AFC
Kansas City Chiefs Vs
Baltimore Ravens
The Ravens come into this game with the most
complete team from offense, to, defense, to special teams, all the way down to
the coaching staff! The one thing that Ravens have that will make the biggest
difference in this matchup is the defense because the only way to beat the
Chiefs is to contain Patrick Mahomes, the best way you can, and this defense is
more than capable of doing that. The Ravens were the best team at getting at
the quarterback this season by leading the league in sacks and have some ball hawks
in the secondary. Then, of course, they have Lamar Jackson, who has turned into
a prolific quarterback this season. He is owning the pocket and only running
when necessary, and when he does run, it’s the same old Lamar. The Chiefs
defense has been much improved this season, but I don’t think they will be able
to contain the Ravens ground attack, which will cause some problems down the
stretch. The Ravens have dominated multiple top tier teams this season and I
believe the Chiefs are next on the list. While the Chiefs are the defending
champs and do know how to win when it matters the most, I believe they will
fall short in this one because the Ravens will take advantage of the Chiefs
holes within the offense and help get their offense back on the field to
dominate the time of possession.
Ravens over Chiefs 31-21
