The Playoffs are over and the Seahawks were victorious (were they ever) over the Broncos. That means it's time to figure up the winners of our playoff prediction challenge for both the staff and the readers.
There was a tie atop the S&BP staff predictions with Jeff and SOB taking it. They both had just one incorrect pick among the conference champions and predicted the Super Bowl and the winner. Marcus also had the same result but I give the tie-breaker to Jeff and SOB for picking a team who played wildcard weekend. But if you want to go simply by the fact they all had just one incorrect pick, that's a damn good lookin three-way tie.
The best:
AFC | AFC | NFC | NFC | AFC Champ | NFC Champ | Super Bowl | |
Jeff | Broncos | Patriots | Seahawks | Packers | Broncos | Seahawks | Seahawks |
SOB | Broncos | Patriots | Seahawks | Eagles | Broncos | Seahawks | Seahawks |
Marcus | Broncos | Patriots | Seahawks | Panthers | Broncos | Seahawks | Seahawks |
The rest:
RDreamer | Broncos | Bengals | Seahawks | Eagles | Broncos | Seahawks | Seahawks |
Asher | Broncos | Bengals | Seahawks | Panthers | Broncos | Seahawks | Broncos |
Levi | Broncos | Bengals | Seahawks | Eagles | Bengals | Seahawks | Seahawks |

Among the community, there was similar success. The top three teams were just like the top three in the staff - with just one incorrect pick. The winner is uk_raider who, like Jeff and SOB, had a wildcard weekend team in the championship. Unlike Jeff and SOB, that team actually won a playoff game. Still, it was great work by Vodka and Valium and Silver and Black Storm to nail all but one pick.
The podium:
AFC | AFC | NFC | NFC | AFC Champ | NFC Champ | Super Bowl | |
uk_raider | Broncos | Patriots | Seahawks | Saints | Broncos | Seahawks | Seahawks |
Vodka and Valium | Broncos | Patriots | Seahawks | Panthers | Broncos | Seahawks | Seahawks |
Silver & Black Storm | Broncos | Patriots | Seahawks | Panthers | Broncos | Seahawks | Seahawks |
Honorable mention:
ChuyJess26 | Broncos | Patriots | Seahawks | 49ers | Patriots | Seahawks | Seahawks |
OaktownNative | Broncos | Colts | Seahawks | Eagles | Broncos | Seahawks | Seahawks |
senior dgaf | Broncos | Colts | Seahawks | Panthers | Broncos | Seahawks | Seahawks |
Overall it was a great turnout with some really impressive predictions. Once in the divisional round of the playoffs, there were still 26 entries whose conference championship game predictions had at least three teams still in the running. Of those, 10 had the Broncos and Seahawks in the Super Bowl.
