NFC Playoff Predictions

49ers @ Panthers- Sunday at 1:05

There's no denying that next to the Chiefs, the Panthers are the most improved team in the league this year. The Panthers defensive front seven, led by Greg Hardy and Luke Kuechly (the NFL Defensive POY in my opinion) is a formidable foe for any opposing offense. Look at Carolina's week 10 win against the 49ers for proof. They made Colin Kaepernick look like a deer in headlights all game long. But missing from that game, was 49ers wide receiver, Michael Crabtree. His appearance in the playoffs this week in my opinion, will be the difference in the game. It'll be another close contest but San Francisco will be the victor this time around.

Saints @ Seahawks- Saturday at 4:35

In my opinion, this game simply comes down to the Seahawks being at home. CenturyLink Field in Seattle has proven time and time again to be a not so pleasant place for opposing teams. With an incredible crowd, and Seattle only losing one home game all season, I gotta roll with Russell Wilson & Co. here.

Welcome to the "Fan Thoughts" Blog

I love sports. It's as simple as that. When at home, my TV is usually tuned into ESPN, or NFL Network or MLB Network. Most of my tweets are about sports. In fact, I'm currently a student at UNC Chapel Hill, majoring in journalism in hopes of one day hosting my own sports talk radio show. This blog is simply a way for me to get my sports opinions out in the open and I hope you take the time to read my opinions and predictions. and by all means, comment on my posts! I'm always up for a good, old fashioned sports debate.
