The 2023 NFL playoff bracket will officially get underway on Saturday when the No. 2 San Francisco 49ers host the No. 7 Seattle Seahawks during Super Wild Card Weekend.

Top 2023 NFL playoff predictions
One of the surprising NFL playoff bracket predictions from the model: It is high on the Dallas Cowboys despite their sluggish finish to the season. Tom Brady and the Buccaneers will be a popular NFL playoff bracket pick this weekend, but SportsLine’s model has identified value on Dallas in this game.
The Cowboys are the fourth-highest scoring offense in the NFL, while Tampa Bay is No. 25. Dallas is also better defensively, so there has been a major overreaction to the Cowboys’ Week 18 loss at Washington. Tampa Bay finished 4-12-1 against the spread during the regular season, marking the worst ATS record of any playoff team in league history.
Brady threw seven interceptions over his final six games, needing to engineer a trio of fourth-quarter comebacks during Tampa Bay’s last five home games. The Buccaneers are not going to be able to overcome a slow start against Dallas, which is why the model has the Cowboys winning in over 50% of simulations. See which other teams to pick here.
