Recommended Posts

 

2017:  

Playoff seeds
Seed AFC NFC
1 New England Patriots (East winner) Philadelphia Eagles (East winner)
2 Pittsburgh Steelers (North winner) Minnesota Vikings (North winner)
3 Jacksonville Jaguars (South winner) Los Angeles Rams (West winner)
4 Kansas City Chiefs (West winner) New Orleans Saints (South winner)
5 Tennessee Titans (wild card) Carolina Panthers (wild card)
6 Buffalo Bills (wild card) Atlanta Falcons (wild card)

 

This year (prediction):

AFC:
1. Jacksonville 

2. Pittsburgh

3. New England

4. LA Chargers

5. Tennessee

6. Denver

Out:  Bills and Chiefs In: Chargers and Broncos.

Jags probably have best defense in the entire league and along with a good running game will win games old school.  Won't be easy as its the toughest division in the AFC; Luck is back, Titans are stacked and Houston has some all world players.  Tennessee and Jacksonville are probably two most talented teams in the entire AFC.

Pittsburgh seems to be sliding a bit, but are still best in their division and have a lot of offensive weapons.

New England is definitely on paper not as good as last year and everyone is one year older.   Division is still worst in AFC and Brady and Belichick are still there.

LA Chargers because they can't have bad injury luck forever.  9-7 last year, and KC went with the rookie QB.   Rivers needs to win now or hang it up soon.  Broncos should not be a doormat this year making this division almost as tough as the South.  

NFC:

1. Atlanta

2. LA Rams

3. Philly

4. Minnesota

5. New Orleans

6. Dallas

In: Dallas  Out:    Panthers 

Atlanta has been oh so close two years in a row and just added two good draft picks that should help immediately.  They are a Super Bowl contender again.  

LA Rams played fantasy football in offseason and added a bunch of names.   Maybe not as good as they look on paper, because that is almost always the case.  Still best team in their division by a good margin.

Philly defending SB champs and look to be loaded again.  Cowboys and Giants should be a lot better in 2018 however.  Division was bad last year when on paper it was one of the best.

Vikings are still class of the North.  Won't be quite as easy as last year.  Detroit should be a bit better this year.  Chicago is much improved and GB seems about the same.

NO is a SB contender who plays in toughest division in football.  Falcons are loaded.  Carolina still has its perennial all pros and Tampa Bay just loaded up its defense and picked up a RB.

Dallas lost two all time greats, but Dev was a distraction because of his personality.  Whitten hurts though.  Still even with that, Zeke has last years nightmare of his own making behind him and OLine is healthy again and added a good draft pick to mix.  Defense looks to be much improved as well.  Dallas went out and plugged most of its holes in the draft.  Good chance they make playoffs.

Felt slightly uneasy until I realized I can't read. One of the few times illiteracy IS the better option.
