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. Tampa Bay won handily when these two teams met four months ago, but the situation has changed since. Dallas went on to strike up a balance offensively and finished fourth in the NFL in scoring, while the defense was the league’s most disruptive, forcing 33 turnovers and registering 54 sacks.
Micah Parsons had two sacks in the first encounter and was key to keeping Dallas involved for most of that first meeting. He finished the season with 13.5 sacks, three forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries with a defensive touchdown. The model predicts Tom Brady averages just 6.6 yards per pass attempt and that Dallas forces two turnovers to win in over 50% of simulations. See which other teams to pick here.
