The holidays are over and it’s time for the other best time of the year.

The NFL playoffs are on deck with one more week to go before the season concludes. This week, we open with a pair of Saturday games that could decide a lot for the postseason.

Seahawks-49ers prediction

Both of these are solid football teams. I don’t think a lot of Brock Purdy, he’s good, but nothing special. Still, in this game, he’s head and shoulders above Sam Darnold, who has the potential to be good, but is also capable of being the worst player on the field at times. Prediction: 49ers 24, Seahawks 13
