Our wild card pick has reached the first round of the 2026 NFL Playoffs!
The Bleeding Green Nation staff is here to predict the winner of every game on the schedule. We’ll tally up the results along the way to see who comes out on top at the end of the season. Feel free to post your own predictions or discuss the author’s predictions in the comments.

As a reader, you can also join in the fun by voting for who you think will win the contest (scroll down to see the poll). I will tally these results in the “BGN Community” section under the selection table generated by Tallysight.
After Week 18, the BGN Community Collective will enter the playoffs as regular season champions…for the second year in a row! But there’s still time to decide the championship in the coming weeks. Jonny Page continues to lead the BGN staff.
When it comes to the Philadelphia Eagles taking on the San Francisco 49ers this week, the BGN staff is clearly siding with the Birds. The Eagles were initially three-point favorites at home, but the lines have continually shifted in Philadelphia’s favor; the odds for this game are now Eagles -4.5 (per FanDuel Sportsbook). The Hawks’ advantage is as much as 5.5 points in some other places.
