LTHs Predictions Part 3/3; The Playoffs

AFC and NFC Seedings
1.  Steelers/Buccaneers 
2.  Jets/Vikings
3.  Jaguars/Giants
4.  Broncos/Cardinals
5.  Bills/Panthers
6.  Browns/Packers
 
Wildcard Matchups
3)Giants vs 6)Packers
Summary;
Rematch of a week 4 game, I don't see Chok making the same mistake twice and throttling down early. That being said, Witt will put up a great fight and it will be close.
Final; Giants 27; Packers 24
 
3)Jaguars vs 6)Browns
Summary;
Now that killa is back, Jorge is going to be set out to 4 peat. Starting with a playoff rematch with stutts. I think Jorge's defense is going to be too much and it'll be over by half.
Final; Jaguars 35; Browns 10
 
4)Cardinals vs 5)Panthers
Summary;
This is an interesting matchup, a power run offense vs a stout defense. I think this one will be closer than expected. And with that being said, I think Jo closes it out with a goal line stand.
Final; Panthers 24; Cardinals 20
 
4)Broncos vs 5)Bills
Summary;
In a rare instance where the home team is the underdog, Nasty takes on Dem in Denver. I think it's competitive by half. But the depth in rosters will come out in the 2nd half.
Final; Bills 35; Broncos 17
 
Divisional Round
1)Steelers vs 5)Bills
Summary;
Why are we even discussing this. Like I said before, few things are certain in the TSL. One of which is Dem chokes in the playoffs. It gets ugly early in the 2nd.
Final; Steelers 42; Bills 21
 
1)Buccaneers vs 5)Panthers
Summary;
Going to be a great game, but I can't doubt Jo against Diddy. Jo is clutch in the playoffs, that's what he does (among the certain things in TSL)
Final; Panthers 28; Buccaneers 24
 
2)Jets vs 3)Jaguars
Summary;
Game of the week, 2 stout teams battling it out for a trip to the AFC title game. I think this game could go either way, but I can't doubt the 3 time AFC champ.
Final; Jaguars 14; Jets 13
 
2)Vikings vs 3)Giants
Summary; 
Last of the divisional games, Giants look to continue the revenge tour and head to Minnesota. But as much respect as I have for Chok as a madden player, I think the Vikings are saving their energy for the playoffs and look good heading to the NFC championship.
Final; Vikings 38; Giants 24
 
Conference Finals;
1)Steelers vs 3)Jaguars
Summary;
Both games are going to be slugfests, but Killa has yet to beat Jorge in the playoffs. I think that'll give him extra motivation needed to even the playing field for Jorge looking to 4 peat. I think this game is decided on the last drive as Jorge uses his Madden BS to get in field goal range to send the Jags to the bowl again.
Final; Jaguars 34; Steelers 31
 
2)Vikings vs 5) Panthers
Summary;
This game will start off ugly for the Vikings as it usually does, down by 17 headed into the 2 minute warning, but as the head coach of the Vikings does, he keeps his guys head in the game. A TD and another TD coming in and out of the half turn it into a 3 point game, a scoreless 3rd and most of the 4th turn to 4 minutes left and the Panthers kicking a FG turning it into a 6 point game. Vikings drive late and get to the goal line with 4 chances to win the game, 30 seconds left instead of handing it to the FB, the power back bowls over the line giving the Vikings and LTH his first bowl appearance.
Final; Vikings 21; Panthers 20
 
Da Bowl
2)Vikings vs 3)Jaguars 
Summary;
Now this one should be an interesting, can Jorge repeat? Or can LTH vanquish the Jo Bros for his 2nd title? Starting off, the Vikings start fast with a TD and a turnover. But amounts to not a large lead headed into the half. Score; Vikings 13; Jaguars 7
So 2nd half, Jaguars score from their first drive taking the lead. Back and forth drives stalled, we start the 4th, Vikings lead down and score a TD and decide to go for 2. The power back once again bulldozes through the line and gives the Vikings a 7 point lead. Jorge's quick strike offense ties it up leaving the Vikings with a familiar tie game with 2:30 left. Drive starting to stall out by midfield, looking at a 3rd and 20. They play it safe and get in range for a long McManus FG which he buries from 59.
Jags ball with .45 left. 
Driving down, they get to their own 45 with 10 seconds left. They get in range for a 56 yarder with 3 seconds left. And set of for a FG. Kicker iced, Jorge's kicker sends one... off the left crossbar and no good. Daryl Goodwin Jr celebrates with owner of the Vikings and father, Daryl Goodwin as he wins his first title as an owner.
Final; Vikings 24; Jaguars 21
 
NOTE; I know this probably won't happen, but it's all in good fun. Good luck to everyone's season!

LTHs Predictions Part 2/3; NFC

This is part 2 of a 3 part prediction series I am going to be doing. Keep in mind these predictions are for entertainment purposes only and should not be taken seriously!

 
North;
1.  Vikings (13-3)
2.  Packers (12-4)
3.  Bears (8-8)
4.  Lions (3-13)
Summary;
Remarkably enough, I think I am going to retain the division crown but with even with that no believe I'm going to split the season series against the bears and packers both. Witt is going to continue to improve but if he wants to be a legitimate threat, he has to limit his turnovers continuing onward.
 
South;
1.  Bucs (13-3)
2.  Panthers (12-4)
3.  Falcons (2-14)
4.  Saints (1-15)*
Summary;
Now I spent about 20 minutes debating in my head how this division can go. And contemplating it, as weird as it is to look at, I don't think was as lopsided as the schedules between Diddys Bucs and Jos Panthers, Jo can take the division being down 2 games. I will say that it is very early in the season, but Diddys soft serve schedule against Jos heavy metal schedule is going to be a tough deficit to overcome. That being said Jo still makes the playoffs and once he reads this, will ignite a fire go fuel his run.
 
East;
1.  Giants (12-4)
2.  Redskins (8-8)
3.  Eagles (8-8)
4.  Cowboys (3-13)
As much as this pains the rest of the NFC East, there are few things certain in TSL but one of which is Chok wins his division. I can't remember a time where he didn't and even with his lackluster play the last 2 weeks, I think he rebounds and takes the east. For the redskins who were so hyped for the start they had, I believe they are a few pieces away from finally reaching the playoffs. But in the stack NFC, it'll have to take a 13-3 season to take a wildcard(or in this case division)
 
West;
1.  Cardinals (11-5)
2.  Seahawks (11-5)
3.  Rams (4-12)
4.  49ers (3-13)
Summary;
It feels nice to say it, but Shelly Shell is back into the playoffs. Winning. The division series against the up and coming JT Seahawks, The deal for Zeke is the turning point the cardinals needed. 49ers had a rough turn around with a new owner and the previous owner making the playoffs leaving him with a list of boss battles in his schedule.

Seedings;

2.  Vikings
3.  Giants
4.  Cardinals
5.  Panthers

LTHs Predictions (Part 1/3); AFC

This is part 1 of a 3 part prediction series I am going to be doing. Keep in mind these predictions are for entertainment purposes only and should not be taken seriously!
 
North;
1. Steelers  (14-2)
2. Browns  (10-6) 
3. Bengals  (4-12)*
4. Ravens (0-16)*
Summary;
This is a unique division, with Killa taking the playoffs off last season, saw division rival stutts and the brownies make it to the AFC championship where he was outclassed by the eventual champion Jaguars. With that being said and 2 computers being in the division, I think killa splits the series against stutts but "cruises" through the rest of the schedule securing the 1st seed.
 
South;
1. Jaguars (12-4)
2. Texans (12-4)
3. Titans (6-10)
4. Colts (5-11)
Summary;
Even with a poor start, it's hard to see the AFC with Jorge (the 3 time AFC champion in a row) not taking this division, although he may have already lost the bye week. That shouldn't matter when the games start to get colder and he edges out a 3rd seed (and the playoffs) from fellow division mate EIC.
 
East;
1. Jets (13-3)
2. Bills (13-3)
3. Patriots (7-9)
4. Dolphins (3-13)
Summary;
With Ken being airlifted to the Jets, I think it puts an end to Dems reign as East champion. As he said it himself, he's a regular season warrior. So dem with get swept by the jets but remain a 5th seed with a very respectable 13-3 record.
 
West;
1. Broncos (10-6)
2. Chiefs (10-6)
3. Raiders (6-10)
4. Chargers (4-12)
Summary;
As the season nears its end, this will be the division everyone pays attention too. As nasty and his broncos edge out a god team in the chiefs for the division. Pope finishes 6-10 which isn't a bad thing as he has a young team and a low draft pick to trade away for some other key pieces.
 
*Teams with a star are currently CPU teams so every human game I gave them the loss for
 
Seedings;
1. Steelers
2. Jets
3. Jaguars
4. Chiefs
5. Bills
6. Browns
------------
7.  Chiefs
8.  Patriots
9.  Titans
10.  Raiders
11.  Colts
12.  Chargers
13.  Bengals
14.  Dolphins 
15.  Ravens

Im Coming Home

Hes coming home. Peyton Manning will be returning back to Indianapolis as hes has been brought in from the Denver Broncos for a 3rd round pick. Now with that being said, GM/Head Coach Sexual Ferguson has been on the record as to saying that Andrew Luck is still the starter. But Peyton Manning being a mentor of sorts will surely help out his development.

Colts Recieve

QB Peyton Manning (88 overall .39 y/o)

Broncos Recieve

2015 3rd Round Pick

Season 2 AFC Playoff Predictions

Highly demanded again, the Season 2 playoff predictions starting with the AFC.
Since I have 10 minutes before my game starts, Ill go with mine in a rush.

Killa- Bye (HFA)

Odebs - Bye

Chargers host the Chiefs

Diddy host LTH and the colts (Target Bowl #??)

 

So starting in New England, in a hard fought game, the Colts are going to take this one by a score of 24-21 on a surpising performance by RB Brandon Oliver as the River woes continue to haunt this Colts team. Melvin is going to have a breakout 1st half but be held in check the 2nd half. A couple of user picks will hold the Colts back, but Oliver will spark the mini comeback and lead the Colts to the game winning FG as time expires

Winner ; LTH

 

Next up, Chargers up against the Chiefs.
Well this one is easy, the Chiefs werent even supposed to be there with the Jets holding the tie breaker, but a well place bribe landed KC into its worse fear of a game, the Chargers/ Holding the Slogan from last season when LTH took him out in convincing fashion, Bolt Up is going to be far too strong in this one.
Winner ; Chargers

 

So that leaves LTH and the Colts taking on Killa and his Steelers as well as Chargers taking on Texans.
 

Saving my game for last, were going to have the Chargers and the Texans first. This one is going to be a snooze fest on terms of big plays, dump off and 4 yard carries all down the field. But one mistake from the Chargers is going to swing the game in the opposite direction and the Texans are going to win after scoring a late insurance TD.
Winner Texans

 

Now the game everyone in the TSL is going to be anticipating, LTH against Killa. Its the modern Rock/Austin with the big bad Steelers taking on the under dog Colts, similar to the regular season game. The Colts are going to come out hot scoring 17 unanswered but as he does, Killa and MVP QB Houston Russel are going to come surging back to make the score 31-31 at the end of regulation. A coin toss win and an opening possesion FG is going to give LTH the lead but here come the Steelers, Converting a 4th and 26 and a 3rd and 7 is going to keep them alive, a late TD is going to deal this one. 

Winner; Steelers

So, We have the Texans and the Steelers in the AFC championship.

No bias here but this game is going to be a shadow of what the LTH Killa game was, as Killa is going to turn into Peyton Manning and disect this Texans defence. Its going to be a good game but the scoreboard is going to show a much closer game than what it actually was.

Winner; Killa 

So with that being said, this is going to set up Killa's possible last game in TSL as a superbowl. Can he repeat and who will he take on in the Super Bowl from the NFC? Will it be that young chap Stutts? Chok? or the young and comer Jo? Or maybe even the man on his farewell tour himself, Troy boy. Find out on my NFC Predictions.

Colts and Eagles work out a deal

Colts have aquired RB Ryan Matthews (28/85 overall) from the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for the services of LB Sio Moore (25/76 overall) and a 5th round pick in this years upcoming draft.
When asked about it, new Indianapolis Colts Coach/GM Sexual Ferguson said, "We wanted to add much needed speed to our backfield. With our offseason we snagged up an aging Frank Gore and to maximize the use of him in the later part of the season, we went out and grabbed some younger legs in Ryan Matthews."

The Colts expect him to get the majority of the carries for the season and the Colts will open the season against the Buffalo Bills this Sunday in Ralph Wilson,

TSL Season 1 Playoff predictions

As it stands, the NFC seeding goes as followed.
1. Lions (Pnick12)
2. Seahawks (Epone)
3. Giants (Stutts)
4. Falcons (Queens)*
5. 49ers (Chok)
6. Rams (SMD_Brah)
 
*Not official but because of predictions, I am giving him the win over the CPU/Autoed Saints.
 
With that being said, the Wildcard matchups for the NFC are;
Rams @ Giants, and 49ers @ Falcons.
 
I think in the Rams/Giants game that the home crowd advantage and the veteran TSL member Stutts pulls out to an early lead, but the Rams stay close going into half. After half, the Rams come out like a bat out of hell and but up 14 unanswered only trailing by 3. From there the score says close after alternating TDs, Stutts CB Richard Sherman gets injured and returns to the game a shadow of his full self (sound familiar?) But this time, his shadow self is enough to seal the deal. Difference maker being, Rams starting QB Tannehill is out for the game. 
 
Winner; Stutts
Score; 
Giants - 31
Rams - 28
 
So, next up would be the 49ers and the Falcons game. This one is going to go in the complete opposite direction of the other wildcard matchup. Chok is going to come out firing to Megatron as the 49ers are going to cruise to a victory.
Winner; Chok
Score;
49ers - 38
Falcons - 14.
 
So the divisional matchups looks like this for the NFC;
49ers @ Lions, and Giants @ Seahawks.
Before we get into that, lets look into the AFC Wildcard matchups.
 
So this is how the AFC looks to this point*
1. Texans (Odebs)*
2. Jets (Noodle)
3. Raiders (Shell)
4. Steelers (Killa)
5. Colts (LTH)*
6. Chargers (Jorge)
 
*As it stands, Colts are 1st seed but assuming either Texans win against CPU, sim or just win in general I would be pushed down to the 5th seed.
 
So the games would be;
Chargers @ Raiders and Colts @ Steelers.
 
Lets start with my game, Colts/Steelers.
I won the first time we played but when I did, I only awoken the sleeping beast that is playoff push killa. He is going to come out and take controll of the game in the first half
with the score being 17-3. But as I do, in the 2nd half Ill wake up and come back within 3. But then Killa will become killa and seal the deal with a user pick and 
TD run to begin his playoff run. 
Winner - Killa
Score;
Steelers - 31
Colts - 21
 
Now the next game is going to be a complete slugfest. 
Chargers/Raiders
Ill be the first to admit, I have no idea how good/well the Chargers guy plays be he is undefeated in TSL games so far. But hes never been where the big boys play
in the playoffs. That being said, he shakes off the jitters by scoring the 1st points of the game and shutting Shell out 3 and out his first drive.
This doesnt end to well for Jorge as this unleashes a massacure. Shell then all the way up into the 4th quarter.
Up by 17, it looks like the end. But then Jorge gets a user pick and scores. Then forces a 3 and out and makes a FG, making it s 7 point game.
Shell drives all the way down field but on 3rd and 7, he goes to the air where the ball is picked. Jorges scores and the game goes to OT.
OT starts and Jorge scores the walk off TD after a good KR.
Winner - Jorge
Score ; 
Chargers - 37
Raiders - 31
 
Just to recap for you. The AFC divisional matchups now looks like this,
Steelers @ Jets, and Chargers @ Texans
And once again for the NFC,
49ers @ Lions, and Giants @ Seahawks
 
From here, this is where the tables start to turn for some teams.
 
Lets start with the game everyone (including themselves) will be talking about.
Killa and Noodle.
Now both of these guys are always talking about who is better than how and now will be the best time to find out.
Killa struggles as Manziel starts cooking early and getting yards on the ground and through the air. But eventually the madden god bless Killa as he
takes manziel out the rest of the game.
From there the massacure begins. Killa does whatever he wants on offense and stuffs everything on defense securing his spot in the AFC Championship.
Of course itll be debated on what would have happened if Manziel never went down. And that will leave it up for debate next season.
Winner - Killa
Score;
Steelers - 24
Jets - 10
 
The other AFC game wont be as talked about as it is going to be believed that the winner of this, will have thier playoff hopes crushed by
what is now to be Killa.
But it will live up to the hype and build a name in TSL with both players.
First half is a snooze fest with the score being 6-3 for the Chargers.
But Texans start cooking as Evans gets open more and more. After a while they head to overtime where one overtime isnt enough to finish this one.
Halfway through double OT, Dalton finds Maclin across the middle for the game winning TD.
Winner - Jorge
Score; 2OT
Chargers - 27
Texans - 21
 
Now, over to the NFC.
49ers @ Lions
Now, this one is going to be a showdown.
High scoring.
And because I want to save my creative thinking for the bowl, Ill just cut to the finish.
Winner - CenaWinsLOL
Score;
Lions - 38
49ers - 28
 
Giants @ Seahawks
Sherman shows up, but not as well as Andrew Luck does.
Winner - Seahawks
Score;
Seahawks - 21 
Giants - 14
 
So, now we are in the NFC/AFC Championship games.
Chargers @ Steelers and Seahawks @ Lions
 
Keeping the format for the NFC side, Ill cut to the finish on these predictions because this is a lot of typing.
 
Chargers @ Steelers
Killa is unstopable right now. Not even close
Winner - Killa
Score;
Steelers - 38
Chargers - 7
 
Seahawks @ Lions
Luck is good but pnick has a secret weapon.. and his name is John Cena!
(I know I used this already, but deal with it)
Winner - Pnick
Score;
Seahawks - 21
Lions - 24
 
So now the bowl! What shoulda been if it wasnt for that LTH (See Superbowl XXII)
Killa vs Pnick
Winner will be the lord of the rings. 
Its John Cena vs "Im Quitting" Rampage Killa (see what I did there)
 
Steelers @ Lions
So, this one starts out a defensive slug fest. Pnick run game too good for JC and company. But then Killa gets Cobb and DT going.
Nick has no choice but to play pass defense and JC breaks loose for a 50 yard TD run. Pnick on the field now, Mariota is looking sharp early
and dazzles his way down field tying it up. From there, both teams struggle to score but Pnick dives the field and pounds a 1 yard TD in
14-7 at half. 
2nd half is more of the same. Defensive show down. As the 3rd quarter expires, Killa finds Cobb and he is GONE. 14-14 leading to the
best 4th quarter in SB history. Both teams score every time they touch the ball. But with 1:40 to go, Pnick has a chance to hit a 59 yarder to take a late lead.
Killa, out of timeouts has no choice but to hope he shanks it. Its up and.... pushed wide. Too bad he wasnt in his safe place, the ford dome. Killa takes over, poised to win the game.
On the brink of FG range, but he finds a man deep and the ball is picked off in the endzone. OT we go.
 
So, in overtime, Killa wins the toss and drives the length of the field to get inside the 5. Stuffed every time he tries to run it.
3rd and goal from the 7, he rolls out and fires to Cobb... dropped. FG is good though. Score is 38-35. Pnicks turn, as he gets closer and closer down field, the faint sound from the crowd gets louder and louder.
"DA DA-DA-DAAAAAAAA, DA DA-DA-DAAAAAAAA" They're chanting John Cenas theme song. Mariota finds a man down field, and its none other than Mr. Gronk. He runs over everyone on his way to the 10.
Mariota has 4 downs to win a bowl. So, 1st down read option with Miller goes for 3. 2nd down, fade to Cooper goes through the back of the endzone.
3rd down, sweep to Miller takes them to the 2. So 4th down, Mariota fakes a handoff, and throws one up and...
Winner - Pnick
Score;
Lions - 41
Steelers - 38 
Gronk finishes it off with the game winning TD and wins the MVP with his great game.
 
Thanks for reading, and I want to remind everyone this is hust a random prediction. No real thought was put into this. Good luck everyone in the playoffs. :)
