I went through this thread to see if anybody would be crazy enough to pick SD as a playoff team, and you were. Even more surprised that you have them as the division winning(assuming these teams are listed in order of playoff seeding).

I know, just messing. I do think the Cowboys take the top seed. Things seems to be just about in order for them. Solid o-line (could the Hawks borrow a couple), solid wr's, stud rb, and getting great play from Dak. Defense is looking good which was a question mark going into the season. Team is looking good and tough to beat at the moment.

Starting safety and Claiborne (who is playing like an All Pro) out for a while. Key is run game and the other guys stepping up and getting a pass rush. If they can keep running the ball and Dak keeps doing what he is doing anything is possible. Personally I tend to put the teams that have done it before on top until it's clear they won't be there. So It's still Sea for me and I'm still wondering what GB may do if Rodgers gets hot at the end of the year - looks like 4 good WRs now. Didn't like AZ or Car anywhere near as much as most coming into the year, so I have no problem not keeping them up top.

I don't think anyone in the NFL is winning more than 11 games. Dallas has one loss but still has 4 tough road games ( @ Pitt, @ MIN, @ NYG, @PHI). I think you probably see 2 teams win 11, 2 or 3 teams win 10 and the others win 9 to get it. Just can't see anyone other than MAYBE Dallas getting to 12 but they're road games are just brutal

There was a prediction thread where @PDay8810 predicted Dallas to win 11 (or 12?) games. Looks like a genius right now...

Same. There defense is good but not LOB good. My Breakdown Goes Like this

1) Patriots 14-2
2) Raiders 12-4
3) Steelers 10-6
4) Tennessee 9-7
5) Broncos 11-5
6) Chiefs 11-5

1) Seattle 13-3
2) Dallas 12-4
3) Atlanta 12-4
4) Green Bay 11-5
5) Philadelphia 10-6
6) Minnisota 10-6

Wildcard

Atlanta 27 Minnisota 3
Kansas City 13 Pittsburgh 20
Denver 24 Tennessee 10
Green Bay 38 Philadelphia 7

Divisional

Seattle 30 Green Bay 24 OT (More give and take from 2 years ago)
Oakland 16 Pittsburgh 10
New England 30 Denver 10 (Siemen will be the Patriots defense bitch)
Dallas 13 Atlanta 27 (I don't trust the cowboys secondary against Juilo Jones)

Conference

Oakland 24 New England 27 (Gotkowski with a GWFG with :02 seconds Left)
Seattle 34 Atlanta 20

SB

Seattle 30 New England 23

LMFAO at Seattle winning 16 games. Good luck with that

Forgot about the Arizona tie

No Chance

I had Dallas winning the East too. Although I thought they'd probably win 10

After Romo's injury? If so, very impressive as well...

[richig07]

Glad to see no one has my Giants

Huge game this week, if they can beat the Eagles

They get the Bears and Bengals at home, followed by the Browns


Wouldn't count them out

IMO, they could easily lose two of three to Bears, Bengals and Browns.

The way the Pats are playing they could end up being a 13 game winner. That's a tough stretch for Dallas, but right now they're playing at a very high level that could end with a 12 to 13 win season.

True that those are big loses on D but that offense is rolling and score some points. The D needs to weather the storm until these guys get back on the field. Seattle needs to get healthy quickly to have any shot at the top seed and I do think GB is going to get on a hot streak while Minny starts to fade a bit.

Honestly I don't remember when I posted it lol

Yeah I meant NFC not NFL. I think the Pats get to 13

NFC... Dallas has a shot at 13. Sea/GB/Atl can get to 12 wins if things break right.

I just can't see it. Schedule for Dallas is tough although I give them the best chance to get to 12. Ultimately I think Dallas and Atlanta finish 11-5, Seattle 10-5-1. I don't think GB makes the playoffs

Dallas can survive that schedule as long as Dak and Zeke continue to play at the level they're at. Not saying they'll win out but 12 wins ins't far fetched. I agree with Atl and Seattle can get to 11 but they have to get healthy quickly. GB's offense will get them the NFCN crown, I think Minny is going to slide quickly.

I actually like Detroit to win the North. I am NOT confident in that though. Lol.

Det has played well and are kind of under the radar.
