Bill Libby and Michael David Savage both went a perfect 4-0 in the Eastern Maine Sports NFL picks on Divisional Playoff Weekend. The group went 3-1 vs the consensus. Larry Campbell was able to maintain a two game lead on Chris Lessner overall for the season for first place in trying to become the 2025 picks champion with just three contests left to project. Sunday will decide who plays in Super Bowl LX beginning in Denver, as the #1 Broncos with backup quarterback Jarrett Stidham hosting his former team in the #2 seed Patriots.
New England seeks their first Super Bowl appearance since the 2018 season (beat the Rams), while Denver seeks their first trip since the 2015 campaign (beat Carolina).
Out West, another NFC West rivalry will fill out who goes to the big game when the #1 Seahawks host the #5 Rams. The teams split their two regular season meetings by a total of three points. Seattle looks to return to the Super Bowl for the first time since the 2014 season (lost to New England), while LA is looking to return for the first time since the 2021 season (beat Cincinnati).
