It’s time to cap off this NFL playoff predictions trilogy with an underwhelming finale. Again I was 3-1 with my picks putting me at 6-2 overall, respectable, then again I’m only picking winners not spreads. For these championship games it’s going to look like a Madden 17 game with very little defense and a lot of offense. Before my picks, a quick shout out to NBA Golden State Warriors owner Joe Lacob and his ownership group who put up all $1.1 billion for their new arena in San Francisco. I have no evidence of this and it’s pure specula...
