NFL: 5 bold predictions for divisional round

Andrew Luck Throws a Game-Losing Interception
Don’t get me wrong, Andrew Luck is one of the league’s best quarterbacks and I fully believe that he has the ability to finish his career with multiple Super Bowls and a future position in the Hall of Fame. Luck is in the midst of a special season as he has thrown 40 touchdowns and he’s had the highest quarterback rating of his career. Despite that, Luck has one main problem and that is his ability to throw interceptions and turn the football over.
In three seasons, Luck has thrown 43 interceptions and while he is on pace to be one of the most clutch quarterbacks of all-time, his ability to throw untimely interceptions is extremely inconvenient for a Colts team that relies so heavily on their Stanford product. Luck will likely throw for around 300 yards and a few touchdowns in this game, however, he’s going to throw some interceptions as well. Denver’s defense has gotten better from 2013. Knowing that, I believe Luck throws a game-ending interception late in the fourth quarter.
