Predict who you think is going to make the playoffs and then who wins it all. Give the order of the teams in each division if you feel like it. I just find these type of threads nice to look back at towards the end of the season.

AFC
1. Denver (West Champs)
2. Indianapolis (South Champs)
3. Cincinnati (North Champs)
4. New England Patriots (East Champs)
5. San Diego Chargers (Wild Card)
6. Pittsburgh Steelers (Wild Card)

NFC
1. New Orleans Saints (South Champs)
2. San Francisco 49ers (West Champs)
3. Green Bay Packers (North Champs)
4. Dallas Cowboys (East Champs)
5. Seattle Seahawks (Wild Card)
6. Chicago Bears (Wild Card)

I see either a Denver/Green Bay or Denver/San Francisco Super Bowl.

I also see both conferences having another crazy wild card race, like the AFC last year. Other than Denver, I can see everyone with at least 4-5 losses, and only a few teams under 3 wins. I can see the Jags, Raiders and Bills possibly being those teams.

The Panthers will see the biggest drop from last year while the Cowboys have the biggest surge.

Denver
Bengals
Indy
pats
chargers
ravens

saints
seahawks
packers
philly
49ers
Atlanta

Rematch from last year.

I can't see Dallas doing much with their defense. The offense will be awesome but their d has to be close to the bottom of the NFL without Lee and Ware. Biggest Surge is Atlanta making the playoffs. I could see Houston making a run at Indy.

Why not? Nobody knows.

There will be at least 2 teams that most think will suck that will make it and vice versa

I considered them. I think the AFC North will be a 9-7, 9-7, 8-8, 6-10 division.

Titans yes, Browns was more if a tongue in cheek pick.

I give the Titans 4 wins vs Houston/Jacksonville, so I see them only needing to go 6-6 in their other games.

The Titans look like an 8-8 team to me. I could easily see them making the playoffs with a couple of good breaks.

NFC East. It sets up nicely for the Titans and Colts (and whoever takes control of the East). Every team except Indy was basically .500 or worse...

Damn that is a nice setup. Time for another year of hearing how luck and his neckbeard is the second coming of Manning

I have no clue who Tennessee has outside of Locker and Shonn Greene.

Kendall Wright is pretty damn good. Managed to go over 1000 yards last year without Locker for the better part of the year. But yeah they basically have nobody

They have one of the better O-lines in the league. Roos and Levitre is about as solid of a left side as there is in the NFL, then added Warmack and Lewan on the right with their last 2 first round picks. And Washington/Wright/Hunter is an underrated WR group. In my opinion, their success basically comes down to Jake Locker.

I wouldn't sleep on Houston either I think they have a bounce back year.

Kubiack is so bad just by firing him I think they gain a couple wins

I don't see much on Tennessee's roster that suggests they will make the playoffs but I could be wrong.

I know it's just preseason but I just can't picture the Browns making the playoffs either. Their offense is going to be bad.

I can't see the AFC North having 2 teams in the playoffs.
