The L.A. Times’ Sam Farmer examines the divisional-round matchups this weekend in the NFL playoffs. Last week he was 5-1 on predictions, only misfiring on Cleveland's upset of Pittsburgh. Using point spreads with scores Farmer predicted, the record against the spread would have been 5-0-1.

NFC: Rams at Green Bay

Saturday, 1:35 p.m. PT, Ch. 11

Line: Packers by 6½

Rams keys: The teams that give Aaron Rodgers problems are the ones that can bring enough pressure with four up front. Don't give him opportunities down the field. ... Jalen Ramsey can blanket Davante Adams, but Aaron Jones cannot have a big day. ... The health of Aaron Donald is paramount. ... Rookie running back Cam Akers is huge in this, and teams can run on the Packers. ... If Jared Goff is at quarterback, he needs to get the ball out of his wounded hand quickly. No sacks.

Packers keys: Take advantage of the Rams' issues at quarterback by getting to Goff (and watching for packages that take advantage of John Wolford's legs). ... Establish a running game with Jones to set up the play-action game. ... The Rams will look to do what San Francisco has done, rattling Rodgers with a heavy pass rush. ... Try to win the time-of-possession battle by controlling the ball somewhere in the range of 33-36 minutes.

Farmer’s pick: As well as the Rams' defense is playing, picking against Aaron Rodgers at home is seldom a good idea. With their quarterback issues, it's going to be tough for the Rams to take full advantage of a vulnerable Green Bay defense. Even with Jalen Ramsey on him, Davante Adams will have an impact.

AFC: Baltimore at Buffalo

Saturday, 5:15 p.m., Ch. 4

Line: Bills by 2½

Bills keys: The Bills have to make Lamar Jackson beat them from the pocket. They cannot let him run. Sacking him isn't the primary objective; making him win from the pocket is. ... Taking away the tight end is paramount, so the quarterback has to throw outside. That's not easy because of all the misdirection Ravens offensive coordinator Greg Roman runs. ... On offense, be balanced and stay in third-and-manageable so the Ravens can't tee up all sorts of blitzes.

Ravens keys: Remember their history: Baltimore is one of the best road teams in playoff history. ... Keep manufacturing the running game, then build the play-action game off that. ... Maybe hit a couple one-on-one shots down the field when the Bills gang up to keep Jackson from running. ... Get some short fields with a defensive stop or turnover. ... Rev up that running game, and don't put the outcome on Jackson's arm. He can make throws, but his legs have to be a factor.

Farmer’s pick: Teams can run it on Buffalo, and that plays right into Baltimore's hands. But Josh Allen has been way too hot lately, and he will give the Ravens defense problems with his legs. Beware, because Baltimore is a great road team in the playoffs, but the Bills keep the dream alive in this one. BILLS 33, RAVENS 27

AFC: Cleveland at Kansas City

Sunday, 12:05 p.m., Ch. 2

Line: Chiefs by 10

Browns keys: Keep up their play-action game to their tight ends, which has been going great so far. They won't have the same matchup advantages against Kansas City that they had against Pittsburgh. ... Stay ahead of the sticks. Third-and-long is not a Baker Mayfield down, not the way it's a Patrick Mahomes down. ... The running game is key. If the Browns can milk the clock, play Cover-2 defense and keep everything in front of them, they can hang around with a chance in the fourth quarter.

Chiefs keys: If the Chiefs don't turn it over, they win. ... Keep doing what they're doing with Patrick Mahomes. ... Cleveland would love Kansas City to run closer to 50 plays, not 70. ... Don't let the Browns draw them into a grind-it-out running game, even though rookie Clyde Edwards-Helaire is a dangerous weapon. ... Get some explosive plays. ... Travis Kelce is a huge weapon, especially in this one, and Tyreek Hill and Mecole Hardman have to scare the Browns, too.

Farmer’s pick: Give Andy Reid a week off, and he's going to give you problems. His teams are 18-3 after a week off during the regular season, and 5-2 in the playoffs after a bye. Cleveland should be able to run the ball, but the Browns won't do enough to keep the ball out of Patrick Mahomes' hands — and pass defense is an issue for them anyway. CHIEFS 34, BROWNS 24

Weaponget Big Games To Play

NFC: Tampa Bay at New Orleans

Sunday, 3:40 p.m., Ch. 11

Line: Saints by 3

Buccaneers keys: Even though the focus will be on Tom Brady and Drew Brees, this game is all about who can run the ball. Getting Ronald Jones back from his quadriceps injury is paramount. If Jones can't go, Leonard Fournette has to pick up the slack. ... If Brady has a running game, he has a play-action game. Without that, the Saints' pass rush will overwhelm him. ... Brees gets the ball out of his hands so fast, Tampa Bay likely will drop eight defenders frequently rather than try to pressure him.

Saints keys: Again, Alvin Kamara and Latavius Murray are going to be essential here to establish the running game. ... The return of receiver Michael Thomas makes Brees more dangerous. ... Both quarterbacks are going to put passes on the money, but each needs his running game to relieve the pressure. ... Do what no team has ever done: Beat Brady for the third time in the same season.

Farmer’s pick: The Saints swept the Buccaneers in the regular season, but winning three times is quite a mountain to climb. Brady is on a torrid five-game stretch, and this is a chance for Tampa Bay's defense to match that intensity. The Buccaneers go on the road and get the job done. BUCCANEERS 31, SAINTS 27

This story originally appeared in Los Angeles Times.

Video games allow you to become the dashing hero you have always dreamed of being. But while most games arm you to the teeth in armor, swords, and bazookas, other games basically give you the middle finger.

Some of these sound great in theory, some are totally baffling. But they're all impractical weapons from video games that no one could actually use.

1. Chain Whip (‘Castlevania’)

Whips in general don't make for practical warfare, and to make it entirely a chain-link is just asking for trouble. Good luck getting a decent swing.

2. Beam Katana (‘No More Heroes’)

Lightsabers are cool, but in No More Heroes a jerry-rigged version built in a garage isn't what you would think as a reliable weapon. It has a dumb rod on the blade, which removes the whole advantage of a laser sword, and it runs on a battery. To recharge you have to… well, see for yourself.

3. Banana Peel (‘Mario Kart’)

If we lived in a world where evil turtle dinosaurs and giant apes wearing neckties played tennis, this would be acceptable. But nobody can actually slip on a banana peel. That's science.

4. Fists (‘Doom’)

UFC fighters might have hands that are weapons, but in Doom - which pits the player against demons from hell on a Martian space station - even they would opt for a shotgun.

Resorting to fists in Doom is less about the challenge and more about going out with glory before you respawn.

5. Buster Sword (‘Final Fantasy VII’)

It’s a GIANT SWORD. Even the guys who forged it in the video above couldn’t wield the thing. This is where “Fantasy” of Final Fantasy matters.

6. Link’s Bug Catching Net (‘Soul Calibur II’)

Weaponget Big Games

Wielding Link’s bug net over his damn Master Sword in 'Soul Calibur II' and still beating your friends who fought with axes, rapiers, and bo staffs is the ultimate shame.

7. Squall’s Gunblade (‘Final Fantasy VIII’)

Combining a gun with a sword is neat. But when it can't even be wielded correctly as a sword and it can't fire off like a proper gun, it's a failure.

8. Lancer Assault Rifle (‘Gears of War’)

A chainsaw engineered to an assault rifle sounds like the most heavy metal thing ever. But in the chaos of war, expect soldiers to accidentally shred their hands off. You can’t win a war when your men and women are tearing their hands apart.

9. Gunchucks (‘Bayonetta’)

[INT. Bayonetta weapons brainstorm]

“Hey, Bob, I have a neat idea.”

Big

“What is it?”

“I call it ‘Gunchucks.’ It's guns attached like nunchucks. You swing them like nunchucks, but they fire bullets! What do you think?”

Weapon Get Big Games

“You’re being promoted.”

10. Keyblade (‘Kingdom Hearts’)

Exactly how does this work? It’s a sword, but is the key part a sharpened blade? Is it a blunt object? Is Sora just whacking everyone whacking really hard? Swords shouldn't be this complicated.

11. The Penetrator (‘Saint’s Row: The Third’)

To a juvenile this is the funniest thing ever. To everyone else, it’s just swinging a large purple penis.

12. Gravity Hammer (‘Halo’)

It sounds badass in theory to use gravity against some poor sucker, but stop and think: Wouldn’t messing with the gravitational pull of the area around you include you? Yes it would. Which makes the cumbersome, poorly-designed Gravity Hammer not just ugly but pointless.

13. The M-490 Blackstorm (‘Mass Effect 2’)

Weaponget Big Games Free

Like Gravity Hammer, shooting mini-sized black holes from a super gun to destroy enemies sounds hardcore. Until you realize it’s a terrible idea because you’re SHOOTING BLACK HOLES.
