6. Pittsburgh
7. Cincinnati (Dalton playing?)
8. KC
9. Houston
10. Washington

Pats- only because of all the backup QBs in the AFC against the greatest, weapons will b back
Panthers - 2nd with only 1 loss but to an average team in a game they wanted to win.
Cardinals- Scary both sides of the ball
CHIEFS-HOT 10 game win streak AWESOME D
Seahawks
Steelers-scary offense but horrible secondary( if williams is out DONE)
Bengals- no Dalton average at best
Broncos-nothing but D underthrown balls wont work in the playoffs
Vikings-QB mistake prone AP not 100%
Texans-great D one great reviever out week one
Packers-average dont have an answer as to why nobody seems to
Redskins-Cousins can throw the rock but no chance to make any noise

Peat how did the Chiefs do against the NFC North this year?

Not sure what that has to do with the playoffs but I will play. Lost to GBay by 10 and Minny by 6 both road games Minny game first game without Charles. Say what you want, changed a lot in that offense when you lose 65% of it. Defense completely beat up Peterson, lowest output he had all year, but that's right KCs defense sucks. I would rather without question play Minny and probably Green Bay than play Denver, New England or Pittsburg. You know Denver who we beat and who beat Minny. In case you missed it we've won 10 straight, learned to play without Charles..
 
Interesting year. I doubt many years would be as hard as this one to rank playoff teams. I did this on a level of who I wouldn't want my team to face:
1 Seattle
2 Cincy (with a healthy Dalton)
3 Arizona
4 New England
5 Carolina
6 Pittsburgh
7 Denver
8 Minny
9 Washington
10 GB
11 Chiefs
12 Houston
 
Zona
Carolina
Pitt
Seahawks
Chiefs
Patriots
Denver
Bengals
Skins
Minn
Packers
Houston
Arizona beats Pitt in superbowl

So Chiefs are now better without the great running back you always talk about?
 
BTW I agree Seattle will be tough to beat, but how soon we forget they lost at home to the Rams just a few weeks ago. 4 of Minny's 5 loses are to playoff teams. Denver and Arizona by a FG. Green Bay and Seatle by 20+. The last three mentioned Minny had five defensive starters out. And we saw the difference on Sunday night with a few of them back.

Minny may not win, but they won't get blown out.
 
1. Carolina
2. Seattle
3. Arizona
4. New England
5. Cincinnati
6. Denver
7. KC
8. Pittsburgh
9. Minnesota
10. GB
11. Washington
12. Houston

NFC title game may be a classic...
 
The numbers experts say 1.Panthers 2. Cardinals. 3. Broncos.

Never said that. I SAID CHARLES DIDNT PLAY AGAINST MINNESOTA IT WAS THEIR FIRST GAME WITHOUT HIM. SINCE THEN THEY HAVE FIGURED OUT HOW TO SPREAD THE BALL AROUND INSTEAD OF ONE PERSON BEING THAT MUCH OF THEIR OFFENSE ITS SIMPLE ENGLISH. I DIDNT SAY ANYTHING BAD ABOUT MINNY ONCE AGAIN YOUR PANTIES GOT IN A WAD, YOU STARTED THIS CRAP, BUTT HURT, GET OVER IT. MY TRUE FEELING, MINNY WILL GET THROTTLED. YOU HAVE NO OFFENSE SEATTLES D WILL BE WAY TO MUCH. I THINK THIS GAME WILL HAVE THE LARGEST SCORE DISCREPANCY NOT SURE MINNY WILL SCORE.<<<THATS A PERIOD

P.S. doubt many if any disagree with me.

What's the bet on the Minny game? You say they get throttled?
 
Is losing by more than any other game getting throttled? Isn't it relative to how other teams do?

Most people agree that KC has the easiest matchup. I would agree. I'll take Rodgers in a wildcard game almost every time. Same with Big Ben.

So how much is Minny going to lose by?
 
I disagree. I think Green Bay has the easier game. That doesn't mean they will win because they aren't good against the run and somehow their offense has been out of whack. With a QB of Rodgers caliber I don't understand that. I would rather face Washington than Houstons D. But to the answer I would think the way Seattles O has been playing with that D, I'd say 20.
 
Are you talking last weeks Seattle or the week before when they lost to the Rams?

You never just let it go. Didn't Wilson just set or tie a record for yards or TD passes over a consecutive game streak? Something like 5 straight with 3 TDs or something? Remember Chancellor missed alot of early games but since his return immediately their rush defense was better. And I think Lynch is supposed to be back. Which is a definite help. You know I am not the only one picking Seattle. Why are you not questioning others? I guess saying your QB is mistake prone or that AP isn't 100% makes me the bad guy...everyone on here has Seattle near the top if not at it, they can be very good, sorry for having that opinion.
 
Prolly because its funny. Everybody claimed Arizona was the best team after Carolina lost, now Seattle is the hot thing.

Seattle just lost an important game at home. They're beatable.

Plus you're the king to point out injuries on one side. Minny was missing half their defense against Seattle. Their most important figures at each level.

I don't know if they'll win, but they won't be blown out. And where are you seeing AP isn't 100%?
 
Lol I've taken him the last few weeks onDraftkings hopetoheck he's not 100%. Seattle has been hot since Chancellor returned, it's not a last two weeks thing. And Arizona all year has been called the most complete team and most experts say Carolina is still a huge favorite. Just lost, last weekend they throttled Arizona by 30. They lost two weeks ago to the Rams by 6 but they lost to them earlier in the year as well, it happens some teams just have your number like a dreadful Tampa beating Carolina. I answered your question I andwered your question try answering mine. What game do you see the score being the most lopsided?
 
I think the Chiefs beat Houston by the most. Houston is my lowest rated team.

Defense is scary though. JJ Watt can single handily destroy anybody's chances by taking out there QB. I do however think Daniel is a very good backup. I don't have a vendetta against Minny I just think the Legion Of Boom is legit. And the way Wilson has been playing if Lynch is healthy that offense can put up some numbers. Personally think it comes down between them and Arizona for the NFC title.
 
We'll see with having Harrison Smith, Barr, Griffen, Joseph and Rhodes in the lineup does.
 

1. Denver (I'm guessing you like good defenses)
2. Seattle (The current sweetheart pick)
3. Carolina (Another good defense, Cam kicks it in who knows?)
4. New England (Can't discount Brady)
5. Arizona (Best coach in the league)
6. Pittsburgh (See New England)
7. Cincinnati (No healthy Dalton, no chance)
8. KC (my #1)
9. Houston (my #12)
10. Washington (best of your last 3)
11. Minnesota (getting healthy and young, Vikes may rule North for a while)
12. GB (Pack or Texans don't seem like playoff teams to me)

Just out of curiosity, why do you have Washington ahead of Minny and Green Bay? You have the Chiefs at 8(both teams beat the Chiefs) Vikes only AFC West loss was by three to Denver in Denver. You have Washington at 10, who have they beat? Houston?
 
I don't compare scores maybe? What a team did in September has less bearing on the outcome than their recent history. But, mainly I ranked Minny that low just to irritate you. I actually think the Vikings are a smidge better than the Skins, and I like teams with non-racist nicknames a lot better. So there you go. Skoal!
