So the playoff picture is starting to shape up some. How is everyone feeling about th teams looking to move forward?

Green Bay is certainly looking amazing. Question is how long can Rodgers keep playing in God_mode_1? Hope his bad game doesn't come in the playoffs.

Pats look pretty good and were a play away from winning that game. Regardless they are pretty solid.

Broncos will likely be ready for the Pats in round 2 and are solid as well.

Indy I don't see being the Pats or Broncos but out of the lower seed teams I think they have the best shot.

I don't see any of the other teams being strong enough to do much of anything.

Arizona is on a downswing.
Philly I don't see besting GB
Atlanta isn't going to do anything
Seattle has fallen a part
Detroit and Dallas just aren't going to get it done IMO.

Same with the the AFC teams. Cincinnati, Sandiego and KC I just don't see them having success against the Pats or the Broncos.



I'm going to go with GB vs Broncos in the SB with the Pats as my alternate for the AFC and I don't think anyone will beat GB in the NFC.
Chargers beat NE.

Miami wins out and wins the AFC East.

Beats Manning in a rematch in the AFCCG and goes on to get revenge against the Packers in the superbowl.

Ryan Tannehill gets inducted into the hall of fame while still playing.

Shiites and Sunnies finally make peace.

War the Middle East comes to a close.

Green Bay looks really strong right now, but I get the feeling they'll blow it in the playoffs.

I'dreallylike to see Detroit win the Super Bowl. I don't want Megatron to suffer the same fate as Barry Sanders.

Arizona won't get it done with just defense, so there's no chance there. Seattle is kind of the same, as I think last year was a fluke with them winning. If Romo were healthy, I could give them a shot of overcoming their December-itis, but as is they're heading for 8-8. If Sanchez got to a conference championship with a 2nd team, that'd be hilarious; but I don't think Philly will win a playoff game. Whatever shit team out of the NFC South won't be doing anything.

In the AFC, I really think it's just going to come down to the Broncos or Patriots. I suppose the Colts could compete, but I think their defense sucks. Unless they get hot and pull a Giants, they'll go no further than the divisional round. No one from the North is doing shit, despite their "best records eva!"

How has Seattle fallen apart? They're only one game behind the Cardinals and are coming off two commanding wins in a row, one of which was against the Cardinals. Of their four remaining games, the two home games against St Louis and San Fran should be romps, which leaves their two road games against Philly and Arizona.

With the way the Cardinals are falling apart under Drew Stanton, I'd say the Seahawks are looking like strong favorites to take the NFC West from them. Hell, if the 49ers pull their heads out of their asses and win 3 of their remaining 4 (I'm assuming their is no way they beat the Seahawks on the road after that embarrassing home loss), the Cardinals might miss the playoffs entirely.

Pretty sure the Steelers have perfectly rested their players in time for their Super Bowl push. The only thing that could possibly stop them at this point is the juggernaut Dolphins.

Pretty sure it's Broncos, Patriots, Packers, and random-fucking-team in the Championships. I'm a Colts fan, but unless our defense decides to stop 200 yard run games and learn how to pass rush, we ain't going there. Unless the defense we play is just as bad as our and we can put up 40+ points right-quick.

Honestly I think it's going to be Broncos and random-shit-team in the Super Bowl. Probably the Lions or Eagles.

Seattle has been on a big upswing these last few weeks and have a chance to take the division.

I think either Denver or Patriots go for the AFC . Which ever team takes first in the AFC.

I liked the way the Packers looked Sunday but they came fairly close to losing at home. I think they are the strongest team right now in the NFC but Seahawks are looking hot as well.

Carson Palmer getting hurt is probably the greatest tragedy in a long time. Dude finally gets the weapons around him and is crushing hard, the Cardinals looking to go to the superbowl in their own stadium and now they just fucking suck.

It's the greatest tragedy since the last time Palmer tore that ACL.
He was in the way of a train and needed cleared off the tracks!

You forgot the part where Tannehill and Wake form the band Wyld Stallions and usher in a new society

I think GB goes to the Super Bowl, unless Seattle wins out and GB drops another game. Seattle's home field advantage is pretty fucking overwhelming and is probably what got them to the Super Bowl last year.

On the AFC side of things, I really don't think NE/Denver in the AFCCG can be stopped. I could see somebody like the Colts playing spoiler, but one of those 2 teams is the likely candidate for the SB. I honestly think if you give the Dolphins a running game and a decent WR1, they'd be right in the discussion of SB contenders. I think their defense is amongst the best in the AFC and Tannehill appears to be on the way to being a solid QB.

I think the Packers run until they hit a quality defense, and then it is over. Could be Seahawks (who Packers lost to), could be Lions (who Packers lost to), hell, maybe even the Cardinals, if their season survives that long. Or if Rodgers suffers even a minor injury (as when the Packers lost to the Saints).

And while Brady might have been pissed, I wouldn't put it past Belichick to not throw everything he had at the game, as the loss probably means nothing to the Patriots' seeding yet gives him plenty to work with in a potential Super Bowl. Let's be realistic here: the Packers were the healthier team in the stadium Rodgers is a god damn killing machine in and they STILL almost lost.
