Haha ... yeah, at first, you read that Hurts is still in concussion protocol, then I read reports he will be fine for the game. It doesnt help that Watson will be out for the Packers, but with their run game and young offensive talent, like last postseason, anything can happen.
With the Bucs, as usual, which Baker Mayfield will show up?

The one who's shown TF up week in, week out all year, of course. I think unreliable Browns Baker is dead and buried.
You mean the same Baker that played crappy for three quarters which allowed the Saints to cover the spread? Without the rookie runner, they dont win this game. Irving reminds me of a taller, Warrick Dunn.
Yeah, that was not a great way to end the season, but overall we've been pretty hot, most impressively torching the Chargers. Love me some Buckyneer though.

Easy to look hot against the Giants Raiders and Panthers 2x
Well, Mayfield did take apart the Lions in Week 2 at Ford Field. Of course, that was before the secondary had a chance to really jell. But still, I wouldn't necessarily want to face TB in the playoffs.

Not such a crazy Packers fan, I guess. I'm crazy enough to think Bucs beat Philly... again.
I'd be crazy to think a team who can't beat Chicago at home could go to Philly and win, and without the #1 receiver, too! I misjudged this Packers team in the offseason. I thought they'd be able to win this year. No, they're still a year away.
I also went 3-3. With the Texans, Buccaneers and Vikings the teams I thought would advance but didn't. The Vikings offensive showing last night was... offensive. Troy Aikman's comment "Now Sam Darnold's easy throws look hard for him" (or something like that) summed it up.
