Multiple people predicting eagles to get 10 wins. I don't see that happening. 8-8, maybe 9-7. 8-8 probably wins the NFC LEast.

they lost some close games to good teams.

i think they split between no/rams, and then lose 1 more game among the other teams.

right now, especially due to the wash injuries, they are clearly the division frontrunner and they have a lot of div games left

Got them at exactly 9-7 which isn't inconceivable by any stretch. I do think 10-6 wins the division but 9-7 isn't exactly out of the question either. 

The Giants look terrible. The Cowboys have a tough stretch ahead of them featuring 2 good teams and 2 division rivals (Eagles, Falcons, Saints, Redskins) and have struggled. 

I predict the Redskins winning it at 10-6 out of sheer lack of quality opponents and the Eagles finishing at 9-7.

Just out of curiosity, which games did you pick for each of the NFC North teams?

Ahh Ok. I have the Packers losing only to the Hawks---worth noting the Bears/Packers game is HUGE and at this point, as a disgruntled Bears fan, cannot see them beating the Packers.

The Bears losing to the Rams, splitting with the Vikes and sweeping the Lions.

The Vikes beating the Bears and Lions and losing to the rest --losing to the Dolphins is probable a stretch but I like to go against my own gut at times just to make up for unpredictability purposes. 

Besides, I'm terrible at these things lol.

i had them sweeping the lions until the vikings game got pushed back to the late game. i feel like the bears come out flat on the thanksgiving gamr, and the lions take advantage of the bears slightly shorter week at home

A very solid point that I didn't even consider, tbh.

This division in general is going to be tough. Each week we seem to see something different from each team. Whether it's offense or defense. Even the Lions are still competitive. Crazy division.

Call me crazy but at 4-4 (and with one of the top-5 most explosive offenses in the NFL) I really think Atlanta has a shot at getting back to the playoffs, which is amazing considering their injuries this year and 1-4 start.  They still have a long way to go but are also entering am easier stretch in their schedule.  They get Cleveland next, then Dallas, before playing a tough game in NO in Thanksgiving.  I think they can definitely beat Cleveland, Dallas, TB, Baltimore, and Arizona which would get them to 9 wins.  Then if they can manage to beat Carolina again or NO on Thanksgiving (or both) they should be able to sneak in.  

There's no guarantees in the NFL (especially with their defense) but with their offense they absolutely CAN beat anybody so I don't see any reason at all to totally discount the Falcons from getting back for a third time in a row.

i think they are going to fall a game short, but i agree that they will be in the mix

I have to say the people predicting the Packers, I just dont see it.  They realistically have to go 7-1 to finish the year.  They have to go to Seattle, to Minnesota, to Chicago, and they have Atlanta at home.  I just can't see them going 3-1 in that set. Rodgers is telling everybody to R-E-L-A-X.  Hes not saying they are going to run the table. Hes calling out his coaches, pointing out missed opportunities.  I see a team that is more likely to implode from a power struggle between the coach and QB than it is to make the playoffs.  I have them finishing at 8-7-1 and I would not be shocked in the least if they finish sub .500.  That team is a HOF QB and a mediocre football team around him.

Mike Macs teams always have slow starts.

they will go 7-1 and get there

I think Saints, Chiefs, Patriots and Rams are pretty near locks for the 1 and 2 seeds at this point baring some significant injuries. Beyond that, I think there are going to be some very dangerous teams that can beat anyone. Chargers, Steelers, Texans possibly from the AFC. Panthers, Vikings and possibly the Bears if Mack can get healthy from the NFC.

agreed on the rams/saints though
