The NFL Crystal Ball

It's week two so I have an advantage.

I'm going to get the AFC out of the way.  I don't like the AFC.  I think it's because, get this, no really, this is actually my reason I think, I hate the designated hitter.  Really, the DH is not for people who love baseball, it's for people who love action movies.  Since the DH is an American league thing and the AFC is the American Football Conference, I don't like the AFC.  Sorry AFC.  It's unjustified, but that is the depth of my disdain for the DH.  My hatred for the DH actually carries over into an entirely different sport.

AFC East:
1. New England
2. Buffalo
3. Miami
4. New York (Jets)

AFC West:
1. Denver
2. San Diego
3. Kansas City
4. Oakland

AFC South:
1. Indianapolis
2. Texans
3. Jacksonville
4. Tennessee

AFC North:
1. Baltimore
2. Pittsburgh
3. Cincinatti
4. Cleveland

Thoughts?  Not really because I don't care.  I think the AFC is incredibly week.  The AFC North might be the closest division.

At the end I have the playoff seeds:
1. Indianapolis
2. New England
3. Denver
4. Baltimore
WC 1. Buffalo
WC 2. Pittsburgh

AFC championship
Indianapolis over New England


Alright, the important league...the one that matters.

NFC East:
1. Dallas
2. Philadelphia
3. Washington
4. New York (Giants)

Notes: If Tony Romo didn't break a bone tonight Dallas wins hands down and takes the NFC 1 seed. But they will barely make the playoffs by winning the division by riding on the defense and the fact that Philadelphia is highly over rated and Washington and New York are terrible.  Lucky for Dallas Romo will get healthy just in time to ride into the playoffs with some momentum.

NFC West:
1. Seattle
2. Arizona
3. St. Louis
4. San Fancisco

Notes: Ugh, Seattle again.  They're so annoying, but they are truly good.  They will win.  Arizona will see a resurgence from their old geezer receiver Larry Fitzgerald and they will give Seattle a run for their money.  St. Louis is going to annoy them both by being better than they've been in a long time, but not yet good enough.

NFC South:
1. Atlanta
2. New Orleans
3. Carolina
4. Tampa Bay

Notes: Matt Ryan is going to have a career year.  He is going to move himself up into the upper tier of quarterbacks this season.  Drew Brees is still Drew Brees and will throw for a billion yards.  Cam Newton is still on a bad team.  Too bad for him.  He's pretty good.

NFC North:
1. Green Bay
2. Minnesota
3. Detroit
4. Chicago

Notes: Green Bay is a very good team and Aaron Rogers really wants it.  Minnesota will find a groove and Teddy Bridgewater breaks out thanks to the addition of A.P. and proves he's got what it takes.  Detroit gets three because they aren't Chicago.  Chicago gave all their mojo to the Cubbies and suck so bad they could be mistaken for them from years past.  They're terrible.

Playoffs:
1. Green Bay
2. Seattle
3. Atlanta
4. Dallas
WC 1. Minnesota
WC 2. Arizona

NFC Championship Dallas over Atlanta

Superbowl Dallas over Indianapolis

Your turn.
