Pigskin Picks NFL Conference Championships
Only three games left in the NFL Season. My divisional round Pigskin Picks did not go well. I go limping into the Conference Championships after a 1-3 weekend. Hoping for a strong finish.

AFC Championship – Sunday 3pm (CBS)
Kansas City Chiefs @ Baltimore Ravens BAL -4
The Chiefs just continue to figure out how to win. Went into Buffalo and knocked off a hot Bills team. Partially thanks to a kicker. Poor Bills fans. This week Andy, Patrick and Travis head back on the road to face a Ravens team that is just on fire. Lamar Jackson is playing out of his mind this year. The defense has been great all year for Baltimore too. I wouldn’t be surprised if Mahomes and the Chiefs pull another rabbit out of their hat, but I’m going Ravens here. I think the Ravens cover the four, but just cover. Maybe by a point.
Pick – Ravens
NFC Championship – Sunday 6:30pm (FOX)
Detroit Lions @ San Francisco 49ers SF -7
This one seems like a forgone conclusion already, but you still have to play the game. As much as I hate for it to happen I believe the Lions run for this season comes to a poor ending Sunday night in Santa Clara. The 49ers just seem destined to be in the Super Bowl. The way they managed to scrape by a hot Green Bay Packers team, to now getting the Lions and Jared Goff outside of their dome. He has been great at home, but it is well documented that Goff is not the same QB on the road or outside of an indoor stadium. Maybe he’s flips the script, but I just don’t see it. I am rooting for Detroit, but SF covers the seven and finally wins the NFC Championship that some of they’re guys have whined about for the last year. Go Lions!
Pick – 49ers
