I'm taking the Chiefs and the Over in their divisional round game against the Colts.

I took the over in this game. I love the over in this game... no way it loses... I'm going to take the Chiefs, and I'm going to take the over. Yeah, the over's so easy.

The Chiefs won 31-13, but the total was 44, which stayed well under the typical 50+ point spread for this matchup.

The Chiefs don't get enough credit for being hilariously bad in the playoffs

The Chiefs don't get enough credit for being hilariously bad in the playoffs... 1-11 in their last 12 playoff games. That is so, so bad. And I actually feel bad for Kansas City fans because it's one of those stats that I didn't even believe when I saw.

The Chiefs had a notorious playoff losing streak prior to Patrick Mahomes' era; however, they won this specific game against the Colts to break the streak.

The Chiefs are actually 1-3 in their last six games if you exclude their wins against the Raiders.

The Chiefs are 1-3 in their last six games if you only count real teams, not the Raiders. Besides that [beating the Raiders twice], they're 1-3 in their last six. So I'm saying it doesn't look good.

If you look at the Chiefs' last six games prior to the divisional round (vs Rams, Raiders, Ravens, Chargers, Seahawks, Raiders), and remove the two Raiders wins, they were indeed 1-3.

Patrick Mahomes will likely lose his first career playoff game because first-time quarterbacks are 13-30 in the postseason since 2002.

First time quarterbacks straight up in the playoffs since 2002, 13 and 30. All three lost last weekend: Lamar Jackson, Mitch Trubisky and Deshaun Watson. So will Patrick Mahomes... I'm excited to watch him play, but it feels like, oh, my God. You can't just keep having heartbreak in Kansas City, can you?

Mahomes defied the trend, leading the Chiefs to a 31-13 victory over the Colts in his first playoff start.

The Lions will win the NFC North

I think they're gonna be really good. Are the Lions on Crosby watch? ... I think them and maybe the Cowboys might be on Crosby watch. ... I think they probably will win the NFC North.

The 2026 NFC North winner will determine whether this prediction was correct.

The Bears could have a top-five offense even if they miss the playoffs

There's a world where the Bears don't make the playoffs, but they're a top-five offense. And our defense is so bad that I can almost—I would be very upset, but I could deal with it.

This resolves when the 2026 regular season ends and Chicago's offensive ranking and playoff status are known.

The Jaguars could win the AFC South

I think the Jaguars are not getting any respect or talked about a lot. I think they're gonna be really good this year. They could win the South. I think Trevor Lawrence is gonna keep going forward.

The Jaguars' season and Trevor Lawrence's 2026 performance will determine the prediction.
