Deadline for submissions will be 4:30 pm Eastern on **Saturday** , January 15th (just before kickoff of the first playoff game). My Prediction: **Buccaneers 31, Bills 24** PLEASE NOTE: It’s not an absolute requirement, but it’s very helpful to me if you format your pick the same way I did above – “Winning team name and score, losing team name and score”, on its own line. **No locations** , just the name. Feel free to add any other commentary on a separate line. Thanks! As always, just in case you don’t follow football but still wanna play along, just pick an AFC team, an NFC team, and a couple of numbers that sound vaguely football-scorish. AFC Teams: Titans, Chiefs, Bills, Bengals, Raiders, Patriots, Steelers NFC Teams: Packers, Buccaneers, Cowboys, Rams, Cardinals, 49ers, Eagles ---
