Ex-Cowboys WR Dez Bryant boldly claims the Packers will stun the 49ers in Divisional Round, predicts Super Bowl win for the Ravens
SARAH PHIPPS/THE OKLAHOMAN / USA TODAY NETWORK

After the conclusion of the Wildcard Round, one thing is evident. This is the season of the underdogs; teams that kicked off the regular season on a hot streak and played well throughout the year have failed to carry over that momentum into the postseason. 

It was evident last weekend when the Dallas Cowboys lost to the Green Bay Packers and the Philadelphia Eagles lost to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers that the playoffs were going to be unpredictable. 

Dez Bryant, a former wide receiver for the Dallas Cowboys, is expecting more upsets to happen this week. He gave his predictions for the Divisional Round and stated he believes the Packers will go on to upset the San Francisco 49ers as well, although it will not be by a blowout margin as it was against the Cowboys. 

The Green Bay Packers beat the Dallas Cowboys 48-32; it was surprising to see, but Dez Bryant does not see that happening against the San Francisco 49ers. 

He believes the Packers will give the team a tough matchup and the game will come down to the wire, but he sees the Packers beating them by one field goal.

Dez Bryant is rooting for the Baltimore Ravens to win the Super Bowl

He went on to predict how the remainder of the postseason would pan out. Bryant sees the Packers going all the way to the NFC Championship and playing the Detroit Lions

However, he believes that will be the end of the Packers playoff run, and Bryant sees them losing to the Lions.

His Super Bowl prediction is for the Detroit Lions to play against the Baltimore Ravens. That would be an unexpected matchup in itself; it would be historic for the Lions franchise, and they would essentially have the majority of the nation rooting for them.

With that being said, Dez Bryant still has more faith in Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens. He states that the team will win the Super Bowl and beat the Lions.

Bryant is convinced that the team will “slaughter” the Lions and beat them by a huge margin. That would be the worst way for the Lions to cap off their best season in decades.
