Call me crazy but I don't have either of the current wild card teams making the playoffs

 

[zombie kopitar]

All the Falcons and Vikings have going for them is their games ahead.

Eagles and NYG will probably be one of the more fun playoff races down the stretch

 

[le_sean]

Green Bay hoping Giants miss.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Atlanta falls out in favor of Seattle.

Kind of crazy to think that Carolina currently holds a 3 game edge over GB for home field advantage. Arizona is in the mix, but they're in Seattle this week and Carolina is in Tennessee. Minnesota still has 2 games left with GB. Road to the SB could go through Charlotte.

That's the most random playoff bracket I've seen in a while. I love it. Just need the Vikings to pass the Packers

Agreed. That's what's needed and it's going to happen.

I think St. Louis and either Minnesota or Seattle get the Wild Cards. Though...I could see St. Louis winning the West. They already brat Arizona in Arizona.

I'll go even bolder. Green Bay still gets the #1 seed.

 

[Falco Lombardi]

Vikings schedule gets a lot harder from here. I'd be fairly surprised if they made the playoffs, let alone win the division.

It's going to get very tough for the Vikings but I do think they make the playoffs. That's a damn good defense they have.

Packers are still the favourite for the division because Rodgers can take over at any moment and they could run the table if he's locked in. However, I'm not giving up on it.

They do have a very good defense, but how good remains to be seen.

Also not to stir the pot at all since it was my team responsible, but if Bridgewater misses time, it could be fatal to the Vikes chances. (And I hope he doesn't and is fine and is back out there this week.)

 

[Blitzkrug]

If i heard correctly, Bridgewater was only kept out of the rest of the game as a precaution. He should be ok.

 

[Sports Enthusiast]

I'm still not entirely sold on the guy.

 

[Bruins4Lifer]

Bridgewater has sucked the last two weeks. Vikings got wins in spite of his poor play over CHI and STL. They'll be lucky to get to 9 wins if he doesn't get better.

He seems like he should be fine, but he definitely had a concussion. He was out cold. I'd be furious if he was let back into the game.

 

[Tony Romo]

Anyone wanna give me the odds Cowboys run the table rest of the season?

 

[Roboturner913]

approximately 3,720 to 1!

(actually you could probably add a few zeros on the end of that)

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

Don't forget the 49ers. They have the tie breaker over both Min and Atl.

Hey now, Real American led Niners are 1-0!

 

[Roboturner913]

I will say, the Saints have a very winnable schedule on paper.

Redskins
Texans
Panthers
Bucs
Lions
Jags
Falcons

That last game was bad but if they can get some guys back healthy on defense and not have every single bounce go against them, 9-7 or even 10-6 is still very doable. Don't know if that's good enough to get in the tournament though.

 

[Falco Lombardi]

10 wins will be good enough in the NFC IMO. 9-7 might be good enough honestly.

Eagles
Packers [bye]
Panthers (bye)
Cardinals

Vikings
Falcons

Cards beat the Falcons
Vikings beat the Eagles

Pack over the Cards
Panthers over the Vikings

Pack get revenge over the Panthers

 

[What the Faulk]

Keep in mind, Charles Johnson is due back in a few weeks. Same with Dwan Edwards (who will practice tomorrow). Fatigue on the defensive line has been the biggest reason for the Colts and Packers' comebacks the last few weeks. Carolina is only going to get better.

 

[Best In The Game]

Was hoping the Lions would challenge GB for the NFC North. Not Minnesota. Very disappointing.
