NFL Divisional Round Weekend Picks by Cooper the Analyst and Cup of Joe in the D...

 

          It is the NFL Divisional Games Weekend of the 2024 Season!!! Thoughts and Prayers to All who have been affected by the Wildfires that Devastated the State of California. Cooper the NFL Analyst just completed another great Season Picking Games! NFL Divisional weekend opens up with 2 games on Saturday as the Houston Texas visit the Chiefs in Kansas City and the Detroit Lions host the Washington Commanders. Wildcard weekend saw the Commanders go into Tampa Bar and come out with a hard fought win. The Commanders were the only road team to win. Buffalo and Philadelphia and the Rams and Ravens all won their games easily.  The NFL must change the way they seed teams going into the Playoffs for both the Lions and Vikings are 14-2 and the Winner gets to the #1 seed and the Loser drops all the way to the #5 seed and have to play on the road in the playoffs right away... Injuries especially Concussions have been a huge issue in the first 17 weeks of the season with many star players out with numerous ailments and injuries.

      The NFL made 3 huge changes to the game this year. first they changed the kickoff to a stupid format which is a joke, second they outlawed the way players have tackled for decades and third teams can only try on on sides kick in the 4th quarter and only after they let the other team know they are going to try an on sides kick.. The NFL once again also screwed over its Fans by now putting Games only on Netflix and Amazon Prime and Peacock and now ESPN+ just so the Owners can make more money at the expense of the Fans! And a Round 1 Wildcard Game is only available on Amazon Prime..

     Officiating has been poor at best the past few seasons and it seems that replay is being used on almost every other play. Will this be the Season where the NFL Officials get it right or will we continue down the slippery slope of Officials costing teams games like they have the past few seasons?

A Huge Shout Out to My Surgeon, Dr. Daniel Sullivan, who is a Great Guy and the Biggest Bills Mafia and Buffalo Bills Fan.....

     Cooper has picked the Super Bowl Champion the last 3 years in a row.

     Each year, every team and their fans are optimistic that this will be their year to win the Super Bowl. There are the contenders, the so so's and the pretenders. Contenders at the end of the season are: will be in the AFC; Chiefs, Bills and Ravens.  In the NFC; Lions, Vikings and Eagles. Up and Coming Teams were the Vikings, Commanders, Packers, Rams, Chargers and Broncos. The pretenders were: Jaguars, Panthers, Colts, Raiders, Patriots, Browns, Saints and Giants.  Biggest Disappointments are the Falcons, Cowboys, 49ers, Bengals

    Here are this weeks Questions:
