Summary

The New York Giants made the first and largest splash of the NFL hiring cycle when they sealed the deal with John Harbaugh on Thursday morning. This is a perfect pairing of best candidate and best opportunity on the market. Harbaugh has a lot to work with the and Giants could be playoff contenders immediately. However, the football this weekend is the bigger focus as we head into the divisional round. In the NFC, the Los Angeles Rams are the favorites, but playing in the cold weather has been a historically challenging thing for Matthew Stafford, which gives the Chicago Bears and Caleb Williams an advantage. The Seattle Seahawks are primed to smoke the San Francisco 49ers as the magic has to wear off eventually from all the injuries. In the AFC, it is NOW or NEVER, for Josh Allen who has as easy of a path to the Super Bowl as he will ever get as the Buffalo Bills head to take on the Denver Broncos. The New England Patriots and Houston Texans will be a fierce defensive battle, but Drake Maye and the Pats offense actually is what will win the day.
