matt pretty much nailed it. i also dont think the colts are a playoff team but they might make it regardless b/c the afc is a joke lol. i have a few nitpicks though

"4. Packers (Losing jennings is tough and I'm not a believer of lacy)"

-First off Jennings who? have you forogt about Randall Cobb? what about Jordy Nelson? how about the RZ monster James Jones? This is Aaron rodgers we're talking about, losing jennings means nothing... Besides he had like 5% of the snaps last season and the packers did fine, do not ever discount the packers... Lacy will do fine running with the packers high octene passing game.. the packers will be competitive in every single game and this is one of the last teams in the nfl i want to face.
-Here's a fun prediction, randall cobb will double jennings yardage total at the end of the year.

"2. Saints (Having peyton back will do wonders plus they've revamped their Defense)"

im not buying their defense just yet.. There's no way they will be a yardage stopping defense the only way they become 'good' is if they get turnovers and rob ryan hasn't exactly been know for that. I'm not particularly afraid of the saints honestly. The question is if their defense is 'good' enough for the offense to carry.

"3. Eagles (This fast paced offense will be tough to stop, we'll see if vick can stay healthy)"
No. Eagles don't have a defense, and their offense won't be good enough to make up for this fact. They might be the flashy pick but i dont buy it. The NFC is too strong, at this point Cowboys>Eagles. Maybe next year.

i like the bold pick of the dolphins>pats but the pats will probably get their **** together mid season and if amendola and gronk can be healthy at the same time(is that possible?), i'm not too excited about a matchup with the patriots. Still, i feel like the dolphins have a shot at the wildcard.

anyhow, swap the pats with the chiefs to make the playoffs. Swap the falcons and saints for division winner(both make wildcard), move the packers up to divisional round along with the seahawks, take out the eagles put in the cowboys. I have to say i have a really hard time making the bears miss the playoffs again but i have to pick the saints>bears at this point.. i just don't trust cutler to hold up for the rest of the season, but i feel like the bears are a more complete team at this point.

anyhow here's my go at it.

Wild Card Results:

Bengals beat patriots
Falcons beat 49ers
Dolphins beat colts<--(god this is hard to write.. do i pick the cuddly fish or baby pony?)
cowboys beat the saints(Tony romo decimates the saints D! 6tds for 500yards!)

Divisional results:

Broncos beat dolphins(7touchdowns performance)
Seahawks beat falcons(Rematch from last year, tony g retires w/o a ring, seattle at home is TOUGH)
Bengals beat texans(upset alert)
Packers beat cowboys(romo throws a nfl record 15interceptions!)

Confrence Championship results:

Bengals beat broncos(did you really think i'd pick manning to win in the playoffs?)
Packers beat Seahawks

Super Bowl:
Packers beat bengals(did you really think i would pick andy dalton to win the SB? Rodgers shows up Farve with two Sb wins and becomes the best qb in packers history.)

and just as a reminder to the haters for my playoff picks, the playoffs are f***ing crazy dude, if you try to use logic you will not win. ever. also i was not cereal with the () descriptions.

There's enough good teams from NFC that could make the superbowl, just some of them need better defenses (Packers, Saints, Redskins)

On a side note about Lacy, put him in my fantasy lineup, immediately got injured, missed out on about 21 points that James Starks had.

James Starks having a great game...Either it's because it's vs the Redskins or that that oline has learned to block for runners.

I hope you are joking about the Redskins lol. They are 0-2. RG3 is terrible this year.

Packers are definitely contenders but the 49ers seem to be their kryptonite. Packers lost their season opener to them last year and then again in the playoffs. Packers lost to them in their season opener again this year lol.

slow down there carc we're two games into the season to say that the 'patriots suck' and calling the Texans average is pretty harsh, especially when both of them are undefeated atm and had 10+ wins last season? chances are both make it to playoffs with 10+ wins again, the Texans especially have a pretty complete roster.

i have to admit though, as long as rg3 continues to suck it up against average defenses i have no faith in the redskins. this might sound crazy but they have the chance to be the weakest team in the nfc?

They were 3-6 last year and made the playoffs, I didn't expect them to win vs the Packers anyways but it is a bit troubling. My point is their defense is really giving them no chances right now, similar to the first 9 games of last season. They might not make the playoffs but I doubt they'll be the weakest team, especially with the Giants in their division.

Also Aero you were off on David Wilson so far, noob.

Also you should accept my trade offer :D
