2018 NFL DIVISIONAL PLAYOFF WEEKEND

As we head closer to the end of season and Superbowl LII we are down to the final eight teams who will contest the Divisional Playoff games this weekend and put themselves into the Championship games for the right to play in the finale at Minnesota's US Bank Stadium on February 4th. 

We can expect some cracking games this weekend and can Minnesota beat New Orleans to put themselves one game away from appearing at their own stadium in the Superbowl, if they can then they'll be the first team to do this. I fancy Atlanta to beat off Philadelphia who are suffering the loss of their star quarterback Carson Wentz, and expect them to join New England, Pittsburgh and Minnesota in the last four.


ATLANTA FALCONS 10 @ 15 PHILADELPHIA EAGLES 
[SATURDAY 13th JAN 9:35PM GMT]
Atlanta lost the Eagles 10-15 in a game of turnovers and defence with the second half only providing two Eagles field goals to trouble the scoreboard. Atlanta had a 10-9 half time lead so missed a good chance here. 

TENNESSEE TITANS 14 @ 35 NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS
[SUNDAY 14th JAN 1:15AM]
No surprises here as Tom Brady and the Patriots demolished the Titans 14-35 most of the damage was inflicted in the second quarter with Brady supplying three touchdowns and after that they never looked in danger of surrendering their lead. 

JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS 45 @ 42 PITTSBURGH STEELERS
[SUNDAY 14th JAN 6:05]

NEW ORLEANS SAINTS 24 @ 29 MINNESOTA VIKINGS
[SUNDAY 14th JAN 9:40]

Will update with the final scores later over the weekend and then look forward to the AFC and NFC Championship next Sunday 21st January.
