Going into the Wild Card Weekend of games, SI.com published the playoff picks of 9 different experts on their staff.
Now, with two rounds of the playoffs behind us, it's fascinating (and, for a Packer fan, somewhat melancholy) to see how few of them got anything right.
Five of the nine experts (Don Banks, Jim Trotter, Ross Tucker, Kerry J. Byrne, and Dominic Bonvissuto) predicted a Chargers-Packers Super Bowl. Well, that's not gonna happen this year.
Meanwhile, Peter King was calling for a Chargers-Cowboys Super Bowl, which also went swirling down the drain this weekend.
And of the three remaining experts, none of them has both Super Bowl picks still eligible. Tim Layden and Andrew Perloff both predicted a Chargers-Saints match-up, and Damon Hack expected a Colts-Cowboys Super Bowl.
Not a soul picked the Vikings to go all the way. And not a soul picked the Jets to go all the way.
We shall see...
