2012 NFL Playoffs Expert Picks: Wildcard Round Results

Denver finished off Wildcard weekend with an improbable victory, but can they do it again? And then again two more times? (http://bronco.co.za)

The first round is now complete, and it was filled with surprises. Denver pulled off the improbable win against Pittsburgh, Cincinnati bit the dust and Atlanta still hasn’t won a playoff game in the Matt Ryan era, this time managing just a measly safety.

That threw a monkey wrench into the plans of some of our panelists. Though the combined touchdown and top passer’s yardage categories helped keep things fairly close. Our lone New York panelist Edward is currently leading, thanks to being the only one to guess three game winners correctly.

While things are still close after a tough Wildcard round, anything can still happen. So be sure to check back next Saturday to see how everyone thinks the next round will go. And while you’re at it, you can review how the first round went for everyone below.
