The Chiefs can definitely win the AFC title. Please though, it's Super Bowl with two words. Pet hate from my former editor in the States that one. Whoever wins the Bears v Eagles will give the Saints/Rams all they can handle. I cannot see the Cowgirls or Seahawks doing anything. The smart money is on an LA @ New Orleans NFC title game but the Chicago and Philly defenses can definitely cause an upset.

In the AFC, as long as the Cheatriots don't win, I will be happy. Andy Reid deserves his chance to mess up his clock management on the biggest stage. Cannot see Houston, Indy or the Chargers doing anything. Baltimore are the real wild card in the AFC as their run offense is just unstoppable in bad weather.

Gruden stays on in Oakland - that franchise is a dumpster fire and he has a long term contract. He is too stubborn to change his ways so Oakland will be in the mire for a few more years yet. The appointment of Mike Mayock as their new GM will be interesting though as he is no yes-man which is what Gruden normally wants in his front office.

And chrisd - it's rugby in pads. Happy New Year!

Thankfully Broncos have sacked Joseph - was always the wrong appointment , now I wouldn’t mind Keenan being given the boot as well. For some reason would be really interesting to see if Eli Manning would like a new final challenge

Eli Manning is so far past his sell by date, even Lidl wouldn't sell him at a discount. The Giants will not win until they move on from him. He cannot throw the ball more than 20 yards downfield and cannot hit a 15-yard out pattern at all any more.

Patriots are tearing the Chargers a new one at the moment.

Meanwhile on the telly, call the bloody midwife is King. I will be calling a bloody dr if Missis T don't get her head out of her iPad and start watching this 1960's Rammel.

Go Pats

Can see this being Chiefs V Pats SB this year, if I had to pick is rather see the chief's rake the spoils but Bradys boys are just efficient and always find a way ...

Wheres Al Michaels?

Al and Cris Collinsworth called the AFC game in Kansas City Saturday evening. The networks share the playoff coverage around. I think CBS have the Super Bowl this year which means Nantz and Romo. Tony is brilliant but he's getting a bit smug and up his own backside at the moment. Michaels is the absolute king of play-by-play followed by Joe Buck. I really would recommend reading Al's autobiography. The chapter about his then-friendship with OJ Simpson and how he now feels about him is pretty damning.

This Drew Brees bloke … anyone would think I once said in 2002 on Sky Sports that I don't think he'll ever be successful in the NFL. Ah we all make mistakes as the Dalek said climbing off the dustbin.

No real surprises in last 4, oddschecker has them all pretty close on odds for SB.
Hoping home advantage will get the Chiefs past the Pats.
Watching Gurlay and Anderson for Rams offense my inkling is it could be their year, anyone but Pats for me is ok.
