Giants - I really don't see anybody better than these guys even without that doofus Plax Cowboys Panthers Titans Colts Steelers However... I have learned to never ever count out Belicheat  I'll tell you too Jason... if your Broncos get a couple of pass rushers or maybe add just one really good DE and your RBs get healthy - They will be dangerous next year... as will my Dolphins if they get some secondary help. |

They're very inexperienced. That's probably their biggest problem. They have the youngest team in the league at an average of 25 or 26 years old or so. All I hope is that they go back to the 2005 Broncos, soon. I can always hope for the 1998 Broncos, but they were just too good to hope for anything like that. |

Man it's unbelievable what's happened to the Bronco RBs. I think I'll try out  |

Haha. I'll be routing for you. Just when Peyton Hillis seemed to be the ultimate answer to our running game, he's out for the year. It was devastating hearing the news. No more Ryan Torain, either. Hopefully Tatum Bell and Selvin Young can benefit the team like Hillis has.

I really liked Hillis... I love stories like that. I was watching when they had to put him in there at RB the first time earlier this year. Sorry about your Broncos losing... I sort of felt bad pulling for the Panthers knowing that if I was in your shoes I'd... well probably be throwing my shoes ;D Hopefully they will still hold out and win their division... I'm getting sick of SD. I'm looking forward to laughing at the Pats if they are sitting home while Denver and Arizona are in the Playoffs with worse records  And even though I'm definitely no Jet fan I'm really glad that it will most likely be them or Miami winning the East instead of the Belicheats. Btw... did Bell bring anybody's luggage LMAO |

Haha. Oh man. You and me both, buddy. I'm SO sick of San Diego and I'd give ANYTHING to see Bellichick never end a season with a winning record. I actually wasn't too bummed about Denver losing. At least not as bummed as I normally am. I knew you were stoked about the win, the Dolphins win, too. So it wasn't too bad. I'm just upset that San Diego is still alive. Too bad they're gonna get trampled in Tampa. Haha. I mean, I LIVE near San Diego, and all the fans here (Especially Raider fans) are very arrogant. So it's always fun watching the body language of a guy with a Jerry Rice Raiders jersey or a Philip Rivers jersey after they get trampled. I'm pulling for the Dolphins to hopefully make the 6th seed at the very least. I don't believe the Dolphins and Panthers have ever made the playoffs at the same time? I could be mistaken |

I'm quite sure you are right about Carolina and Miami never making it to the Playoffs in the same year. I'm really proud of my Dolphins this year. It seems like it's been so long since we had something to root for. It's funny how the Fin's loss still seems like a win, but the Panthers destruction at the hands of Arizona feels like utter defeat. I hope they can rebound and I really hope they can keep Peppers. San Diego and Baltimore are out so I'm happy about the Super Bowl teams now. I can live with it. No New England... that's nice for a change.  It was like the year of the birds or something in the playoffs... didn't Seattle get the memo  |

Haha. I felt the same way! When it was down to the conference finals I was thinking, "Man, If Baltimore beats Pittsburgh it's gonna be a bird fest" There are way too many damn birds in the NFL. |

When I was 14 I got Madden 2002. I created a team called The Demons. Still got the game. Seldom play it. |

I thought it might be time to do this again...
Indianapolis - my pick for SB champs right now
Cinncinati
San Diego - sorry J
No AFC East teams for me and I've been liking the Bengals all year, I wish they hadn't signed Larry Johnson, I'm thinking that was a bad move considering their recent struggles with such players.
New Orleans - no brainer - though I don't think they'll make the Superbowl. They have first round exit written all over them.
Arizona
Philadelphia
Giants could be in the mix, they are too up and down right now, but any given Sunday fits them perfectly as they can beat anybody.
Yeah, I left out Minnesota... they choke every year and Arizona seriously exposed them this week. I just haven't been feeling them all year.

AFC:
1) Indianapolis Colts - Peyton is just too good
2) Denver Broncos - That's right. I said it. They're a great team and have a great coaching staff. If they get back into the mind set they were in the first 6 games, they'll be a tremendous force. They blew out the Giants and Chiefs. Hopefully they give Indianapolis a good fight
3) Cincinnati Bengals - Even though they lost to Oakland, they're still a great team. Hope they beat Minnesota next week
NFC:
1) New Orleans Saints - They can do pretty much anything with Drew Brees
2) Minnesota Vikings - A great team, but I don't see them making past the NFC Championship
3) Dallas Cowboys - They seem to be getting the aggression back. I predict they'll take the division this year.
