Dear Readers: As has become my
custom, now that the regular NFL season is over, I offer you Kando’s 2013
post-season prognostications
1. Wild-card
Round (Jan. 5-6)
Houston vs.
Cincinnati: Houston
Indianapolis vs.
Baltimore: Indianapolis
Green Bay vs.
Minnesota: Green Bay
Seattle vs.
Washington: Seattle
Houston vs. New
England: New England
Indianapolis vs.
Denver: Denver
Green Bay vs. San Francisco: San Francisco
3. Conference
Championships (Jan. 20)
AFC: Denver vs. New England: Denver
San Francisco
vs. Atlanta: Atlanta
Denver vs.
Atlanta: Denver
My predictions
are based solely on win-loss records.
This is an unreliable basis, as the
teams with the best regular season records have won fewer than half of the Super Bowl
championships in the past. On the other hand, I find myself in the company of
Nevada oddsmakers, who are also picking Denver to go all the way.
If I recall,
last year I was slightly above 50% - in other words, my predictions were
slightly better than those of a monkey or a flipped coin...let’s see what
happens this time...
