Halfway home in the NFL - Super Bowl Picks
Halfway there, week 8 is now complete. Post your playoff picks and superbowl selections.
AFC East: New England AFC North: Pittsburgh AFC South: Indianapolis AFC West: San Diego Wildcard 1: Denver Wildcard 2: Jacksonville Cinci's schedule gets way, way tougher here on out. JVille's is a cakewalk. AFC Champion: San Diego (Indy the obvious pick, I find their schedule to date suspect with only one real opponent, Jacksonville, and a less than impressive win against that opponent). NFC East: Giants NFC North: Bears NFC South: Carolina NFC West: Seattle Wildcard 1: Atlanta Wildcard 2: Washington (road win vs Dallas huge) NFC Champion: Atlanta (Lots of legit choices here, but give me the team that plays good D and runs the ball) Super Bowl winner: San Diego - Their big weakness is pass D, and Atlanta isn't the right team to exploit that. Indy on the other hand..... [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] |

AFC West: San Diego Wildcard 1: Denver [/ QUOTE ] Dont be silly, they cant even beat Philly at home. You know, the team Denver just destroyed. |

I think somehow Dallas gets in. I guess I would make Atlanta a division winner and drop Carolina out.
NFC up for grabs. I will take Dallas or Atlanta vs Indy in the SB but I still think Indy wins the whole thing. |

[ QUOTE ] AFC West: San Diego Wildcard 1: Denver [/ QUOTE ] Dont be silly, they cant even beat Philly at home. You know, the team Denver just destroyed. [/ QUOTE ] That was pretty much because of a fluke play and Marty sucking ass, which ought to be enough to keep them from going far in the playoffs. Clark: Atlanta's defense has been pretty awful this year. |

Re: Halfway home in the NFL - Super Bowl Picks
AFC East: New England (lucky their division is weak)
AFC North: Cincinnati (I believe!) AFC South: Indianapolis AFC West: Denver Wildcard 1: San Diego (and they'll be dangerous as hell, but two games back is a lot) Wildcard 2: Pittsburgh AFC Champion: Indianapolis NFC East: New York NFC North: Chicago NFC South: Atlanta (not that good, but easy schedule) NFC West: Seattle Wildcard 1: Carolina Wildcard 2: Philadelphia (I think they can get it together enough to slip in) NFC Champion: Atlanta (I think NY is better, but they'll likely have home field, plus I cheer for them [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] ) Super Bowl winner: Indianapolis (I kinda want to pick somebody else, but they're likely to have home field too, and nobody in the NFC is nearly as good.) I think I just made a lot of BSP picks. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] I mostly picked the teams that were leading their divisions, because even a one-game lead is significant with this few games in the NFL season. |

[/ QUOTE ] Also, it wasn't in SD, it was in Philly off of a Philly bye week, while the Denver won at home. Atlanta's D has been far from "pretty awful". It's not great, but it's definitely good (note I didn't say "great"), and the best of the NFC teams in playoff contention other than the Bears IMO. |

Superbowl: Colts v Bears Colts 10 Bears 135 [/ QUOTE ] The Bears will allow 10 points? Almost as shameful as Super Bowl XX. |

Atlanta (Lots of legit choices here, but give me the team that plays good D and runs the ball) [/ QUOTE ] Um, the only team in the NFC that fits that bill is the Bears. |
