Who will be left standing and who will call it a season after this weekend?
Seattle at Atlanta.
The Seahawks are a potentially dangerous team, but with that leaky offensive line I don't think they can overcome the Atlanta defense.
The Falcons move on to the NFC Championship game.
Green Bay at Dallas.
This is a tough pick. Rogers won't have Jordy Nelson at his disposal and needs his other receivers to come up big. If this game turns into a shootout I give Rogers the edge based on experience. Packers win a close one and live to fight another day.
Houston at New England.
The Texans top ranked defense may give Brady some problems and it would be sweet seeing them knock the Pats out, but I don't see it happening. The AFC path to the Super Bowl runs through Foxborough again.
Pittsburgh at Kansas City.
The game has been moved to Sunday night due to an expected ice storm. How much effect if any this has on the game is hard to say. The Chiefs have not won a home playoff game since 1993, but Andy Reid is 19-2 coming off a bye. This time they get it done and move on with a chance to avenge their playoff loss to the Patriots.
