Lets get straight into my best bets from both games on Wild Card Saturday.

Seattle Seahawks +10 @ San Francisco 49ers
I know the 49ers have been on a historic run of just demolishing teams to end the season. I am still not convinced that Brock Purdy is that guy to led this team deep into the playoffs. Both of these teams have coaches that have been to the playoffs multiple times and have the experience. The difference is, I am getting a coach that has finished the job. It feels like every year the 49ers are really solid and end up not getting it done. Couple this with the fact the game is looking like it will be played in the rain which will slow this game down and keep the scoring down. I think that is enough for this Seahawks team led by veteran QB Geno Smith can get it done vs the 49ers and Rookie QB Brock Purdy. 49ers win and move on but by only a score of 20-13. Take the Seahawks.

Los Angeles Chargers @ Jacksonville Jaguars Over 47
This one looks to be a really solid game in the late night slot on Saturday night. The Jaguars have finished the season winning 5 in a row and 6 out of their last 7. They look to play a team they beat earlier in the year by a score of 38-10 at their home field in the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargers were a shell of themselves at that point with multiple injuries across the board included a Justin Herbert who played but with multiple broken ribs. Justin Herbert looks to get the critics off of him who say he looks very good but really hasn't won or done anything in his first few years in the league. The same goes for the QB on the other side of the field who is also trying to shut the critics up. Trevor Lawrence has proven late in this season that he is starting to live up to the hype that surrounded his name when he joined the league before last season. I expect both of these QBs to be men on a mission and put the ball in the endzone. I think the Jags get it done and win this one 27-25. Take the Over.
