Hunter2_1 Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 If teams were created using the players from the current playoff teams in their respective conferences, who'd win? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRider Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 AFC has such a lead on offense, it's actually a bit embarrassing. I like the NFC's defense, but that offense - run by Bill and Haley - will be too much to overcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmart128 Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Few things here. First is where us Tyreek Hill... He is way better than Smith and Hurns. Second Kelvin Benjamin should be on there. He is better as well... He just doesn't have a QB that throws the balls to WRs. And a group of Hill, Cooks, and Brown could really use a guy on the outside who can go up and get it. Lastly how is Bradley the DC? I assume you are talking about Gus Bradley. He is on the chargers and they are currently 2 spots out of the playoffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's MY version of how the teams would look, feel free to add your own, but the thread's purpose isn't about nit picking others teams. Who would win if the best players were selected? PS Kelvin Benj is terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS Kelvin Benj is terrible. Just have no idea how Hill isn't on the team. That's not just nit picking that is a travesty... And you still didn't fix Bradley... He is not in the playoffs currently. So I can't pick a team until you use players from playoffs teams like you said in the OP. I feel if I voted for AFC then that would be cheating since Bradley doesn't have the minimum requirements stated by you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raves Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Where's Michael Thomas on the list at WR? Definitely better than Agholar and a favorite of Brees. In that same vein I would look to put Jimmy Graham back on the list to reunite the pair that were arguably tied for the best QB/TE duo with Brady/Gronk for years, unless you don't think Seattle makes the playoffs, which is probably why I don't see Earl Thomas on the list also... I think for the WRs for the NFC it would be best as Julio/Michael Thomas/Diggs/Theilan as Brees would be able to really take advantage of the combination of smart safe receiving options and great deep threats. I would probably put the RBs as Gurley/Ingram and create a Flex position for Kamara/McCaffery as both can easily line-up at WR or in the backfield. Could you imagine package of Gurley/Kamara/McCaffery/Julio/Mike Thomas? How do you cover that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think about who'd represent the teams, then go about answering? Personally, I think the AFC would win handily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DistantRam Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 The NFC has far greater depth. Given a 53-man squad- and no bias from the officials- I’d fancy the NFC’s defence to shut down the AFC offence quite easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Jags have the best Front 7, but being able to call on players from MIN/PHI/LAR would be hard to overcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t mean to sound like a “homer” but the Rams’ special teams alone give the NFC a massive edge. Hekker + Zuerlein + Cooper > anything the AFC can muster.

Kickers yes, but the Pats ST have punt blocks for TDs, FG blocks, forced muffs, the best starting position per drive in the league plus a HC who's obsessed with ST. Think it's close there.

Danger Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 NFC- QB: Drew Brees RB: Todd Gurley RB: Alvin Kamara TE: Zach Ertz TE: Kyle Rudolph WR: Julio Jones WR: Larry Fitzgerald WR: Adam Thielen LT: ?Jason Peters? LG: ? C: Jason Kelce RG: ? RT: Lane Johnson Yeah as a whole, AFC would have an edge on offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingsrule Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Team NFC would use Mike Zimmer's defense i would think. Could put most of the Vikes defense on that team and be set. RE Everson Griffen UT Aaron Donald NT Linval Joseph LE Cameron Jordan OLB Anthony Barr MLB Luke Kuechly CB Xavier Rhodes, S Harrison Smith Need another OLB, CB and S.
