NFL Playoff Predictions for 2025-2026: Wild Card Round, Divisional Round, and Championship Games
The highly anticipated NFL playoffs are here, and football fans are eager to fill out their brackets. One question on everyone's mind is how far will the Philadelphia Eagles go? Will they replicate their successful performance from previous seasons and make it back to the Super Bowl?
In the NFC West, the Seahawks earned the 1 seed but won't get far in the playoffs due to a tough matchup against the Rams in the first round. Meanwhile, the Eagles have a chance to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Bears in Week 13. However, beating their arch-rivals will be no easy task.
In the NFC Conference Championship Game, the Rams will finally overcome the Eagles and advance to the big game. The AFC is wide open for prediction, with several teams vying for a spot in the championship game. The Texans' defense has given them an edge over the Broncos, but Houston may not be able to pull off the upset against the Jaguars.
The Jaguars, who have closed out the season on a strong note with an eight-game winning streak, are looking like the team to beat. Their impressive point differential of +153 suggests that they are a more complete and better team than their opponents. It won't be easy for them to win it all, but many are tipping them as the top contender.

I'm a bit surprised by the prediction that the Seahawks won't get far, they've been looking pretty solid towards the end of the season 
. But at the same time, beating the Rams is gonna be tough, especially in the playoffs 
. I think the Eagles have a good chance to redeem themselves if they can get past their own demons and focus on the game at hand 
.
! But you never know what's gonna happen in the playoffs, teams can come out of nowhere and crush it 
. I'm gonna take a wild card pick here... maybe the Chiefs will surprise everyone and make it to the AFC Championship game 
.
. What do you guys think?
. The Rams might be able to pull off an upset in the NFC West, but beating the Eagles? That's gonna be tough 
. And can't say I'm surprised if they make it to the Super Bowl 
... let's see how it all plays out! 
by the Rams in the Divisional Round, just like the article said. But seriously, who knows, maybe they'll pull off an upset and fly all the way to the Super Bowl? And those Jaguars, man, they're on fire 
. And who knows, maybe the Rams and Eagles can just trade in their jerseys for some Super Bowl rings 
, they cant even beat their own arch-nemesis and now theyre trying to take on a team that just destroyed them in week 13 
, meanwhile the jaguars are looking super complete with that +153 point differential, i think they got this one 
. I mean, an eight-game winning streak is no joke! They've got that point differential going for them, and it's hard to argue against their complete team performance 
. Can't count out the Texans' defense, though - those guys are not to be underestimated 
. Still, I think it's gonna be a wild ride to the championship game... or maybe even the one after that 
!
i think they got this team thing down pat, you know? but at the same time, the eagles are gonna give it a run for their money, they always do 
. Philly's got some fire in their belly after that tough loss to the Bears, and they're not gonna back down from a rematch against their arch-rivals.
. Can't wait to see how all these teams shake out come championship time 
they had a decent season but that one loss to the Bears was a major setback. The Rams are gonna crush 'em and make it to the big game for sure! 
my pick is for the Texans to pull off an upset against them and take home the championship 
I'm so over this bracket nonsense! Can't we just cut straight to the meat of it? Like, who even cares about beating their arch-rivals in the first round? The Seahawks got the 1 seed but they're gonna get smoked by the Rams no matter what. And don't even get me started on the AFC thing... like, the Jaguars are looking solid and all, but I still gotta see how that defense of theirs stacks up against those other teams 
.
I mean who knew their defense would be the difference maker in the AFC? Anyway, it's gonna be a wild ride in the playoffs, stay tuned! 
And the Eagles are looking pretty strong, hopefully they can finally beat their arch-nemesis, the Bears 
.
. They're for real, man! 
It's gonna be tough for them to win it all, but if anyone can do it, they can 
and hoping they bring home that Super Bowl title 
!
. personally i think jimmy kempski is spot on tho, the jaguars are looking like the real deal 
they had a pretty rough season last year and still made it to the super bowl so i'm not buyin into their complete package just yet 
... it's tough to see them not making it back to the super bowl after a promising start 
... but we all know how unpredictable the nfl playoffs can be 
Anyway, I don't think the Eagles stand a chance against the Rams this year. They just can't seem to get past their own division. The Jaguars are looking strong though, especially with that eight-game winning streak. It's like they're carrying over some magic from last season or something.
