Who you got for the playoffs?

Heres how I see the regular season playing out:

NFC

#1 and 2 seeds go to Carolina and GB. Too early to tell who gets which spot. Two games from now should give us a clearer picture.  Eagles and Cards win their divisions. Wildcards go to Falcons and Seahawks. I'm tempted to put the Vikings instead of Seahawks but I'm just not sold on them and as we saw from the Seahawks last week, despite the 4th quarter collapses they're still a good team. They took us to the wire. It could also be Seattle and Minnisota. The Falcons could easily have a mid to late season collapse. They're still soft as Charmin and are barely squeaking past bad teams. 

AFC

#1 and 2 seeds go to the Patriots and Bengals (in that order). Broncos and Colts win their division. Funny thing is the Colts are worse than us last year and will still probably win their division.   I wonder what the rhetoric will be in that situation compared to when it was us. Wildcards go to Jets (who I think will be favored against whoever they play except NE and maaaaybe the Bengals) and in a shocker to end all shocker the....Dolphins!  The only other real contender here is the Steelers in my opinion. We'll see how long it takes Ben to return and how they play when he does. They weren't exactly lighting it up before he got hurt. 

So that's my prediction. What do you guys think?

    • Blowout incoming and the wheels fall off. Parsons will have multiple sacks, prob a FF. Media immediately starts saying the Bryce era is over 
    • It's worth noting that we started playing something that looked like football after going down 17-0 against the Dolphins.  Up to that point we had rushed the ball 3 times and Bryce had two turnovers.   Then we ran it 5 straight times with Rico and he started cracking off some big gains and led to our first touchdown.  Another 37 yards of rushing later, Bryce goes 1 yard complete, incomplete, incomplete to get that field goal before halftime.  Then we committed big time to the run in the second half and played some really nice complimentary football.  The Panthers had stumbled on a formula, and it started with Rico being crazy productive.  Something they only learned because Chubba was injured and Bryce started that game so poorly they were forced to lean on Rico. Fast foward to Dallas, they essentially lean into the same game plan against the Cowboys and I think everyone was surprised by how quickly it started to look complimentary.  In my opinion the productive offense really helped the defense as well.  We played quite solid against a top offense. Finally we make our way to the Jets and Bills, Chubba's return.  You can't say the low scoring affair and return to ineffective football against the Jets was all on Chubba, they were indeed a better defense and so was Buffalo.  But the production difference between the two backs in both games was both visually and statistically obvious.  The bigger picture is the offense took a major step back as well.  They are other moving parts and it's isn't all one thing, BY9>Dalton by a decent margin at this point.   But yeah, Rico's vision and athleticism is just better than Chubba and it jumps at you.
