    Peter Schrager Reveals NFL Playoff Picks After Correctly Predicting Last Five Super Bowl Winners

    NFL insider and co-host of NFL Network's “Good Morning Football” , Peter Schrager , revealed his playoff picks for the 2024 NFL season on Tuesday morning after correctly predicting the last five Super Bowl winners.

    Schrager’s track record is impressive , having picked the Kansas City Chiefs in 2019, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2020, the Los Angeles Rams in 2021, and the Chiefs again in both 2022 and 2023.

    This year, Schrager hinted at which teams he believes have the potential to bring home the Lombardi Trophy as the entire "Good Morning Football" team, including Schrager, unveiled their division winners and wild card picks for the upcoming season.

    In the AFC, Schrager had some bold predictions. He has the New York Jets securing the top seed.

    "Jets the one seed folks, you heard it here first," Schrager confidently stated.

    The Kansas City Chiefs are his two-seed.

    Schrager’s co-host, Kyle Brandt, playfully suggested an AFC Championship matchup between Patrick Mahomes and Aaron Rodgers, to which Schrager imagined the media frenzy if Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce's girlfriend, were in New York for the game.

    He then hinted that Rodgers might “put a dagger through the Chiefs’ heart,” possibly making the Jets his AFC Super Bowl pick.

    Next up, Schrager has the Baltimore Ravens as the third seed and the Jacksonville Jaguars taking the fourth seed. For the wild cards, he picked the Buffalo Bills as the five-seed, the Denver Broncos as the six-seed, and the Los Angeles Chargers as the seventh seed.

    “No Dolphins, no Texans, no Bengals, and no Browns,” Schrager shared.

    Moving over to the NFC, Schrager’s top pick is the Detroit Lions, securing the one-seed.

    “They are special, they are loaded," Schrager said.

    He placed the Los Angeles Rams as the two-seed, followed by the Atlanta Falcons as the three-seed, and the Philadelphia Eagles rounding out the top four.

    For the wild cards, Schrager selected the San Francisco 49ers as the five-seed but expressed some hesitation, saying, "I just don't know if it goes as smoothly as it did last year."

    He added the Seattle Seahawks as the six-seed and the Green Bay Packers as the seventh seed.

    Five straight Super Bowl predictions are unheard of, but at this point, no one can doubt Schrager’s picks—at least until he finally gets one wrong.

    It’s all luck when making picks. There was a point when I correctly picked 13 consecutive derby winners. Now I’ve been wrong the last 11 years.

    If he hits 100% on these picks I would lean towards a fix in the making
