Here's our new NFL thread since the last one broke 100.

Regular season is winding down, who's going to make it to the playoffs?

NFC is wide open right now

AFC is a little more clear cut.

Who's it going to be?

    Ravens, all the way. It is destiny. Rather watch a badass defense than a fancy offense any day of the week

    A couple of seasons ago I picked up the Ravens for my defense in Fantasy Football, and they were pretty nuts with earning me points. So many defensive touchdowns.

    I haven't been watching the season at all this year. Did they pick up that routine again?

    Lead the league in interceptions, top 5 defense combine that with a B-rated offense the Ravens are the most balanced team in the AFC.

    If the Bengals do not make it into the playoffs there is no team that, to me, poses a real threat to the Ravens.

    They have already beaten the Chargers, the Colts have almost no defense, the Patriots are NOT what they once were, the Broncos have been going downhill since they beat the Ravens earlier in the season.

    The Bengals are the only team that scares me - other than that I am taking my blackbirds all the way this year.

    Now, NFC - I'm going with a tossup between the Saints and the Bears. The Saints are playing like a team possessed and Bush has finally come into his own in the Big Easy.

    Superbowl: Ravens v Saints

    I would be happy no matter who wins that.

    I lose faith in the Bears because Rex Grossman could have a bad day at anytime, for no apparent reason.

    Meanwhile Brees, Bush and Colston have been nothing but cosistant and steady all year.

    McNair in the hizzouse. Love the dude so much.

    In terms of Ravens I would sex, McNair definitely is up there, but Ray Lewis will always own my heart. Of course, nothing would be left of me afterwards, but I'm okay with that.

    I'm just worried if McNair has enough in the tank for an extended playoff run. Its comforting to know that nothing short of a missing limb will stop him from getting on the field though.

    Ambigiously gay? Titles from that silly change your title game thread. I should change it, but my heart says no.

    Also, definitely go Ravens.

    I was trying to buy tickets for a Ravens game this season, but once they started getting ridiculous, the prices sky rocketed. I don't even want to think about prices for the play offs.

    I would like to think that San Diego will make it all the way this year but it seems unlikely that Marty will suffer a debilitating stroke prior to blowing it for them in the playoffs.

    Bears vs Hurricane Ditka.
    78 to 2 cause they'd get a safety cause it's Hurricane Ditka

    No, I dunno, the Bears had a ridiculously easy schedule. The Cowboys could pull off an upset, or maybe the Aints will ride the Bush train all the way to the Superbowl. Then again the Giants could surprise everyone... I don't think the Seahawks will return... hell they may not win their division (ololl suck it!!)

    Yeah as much as I'd love to see them win the division, I doubt they have much chance to actually go anywhere in the playoffs (PLAYoffs???)

    Besides, they have to beat both Ariz (possible) and Denver (hard) while Seattle only has to beat San Diego (hard) OR Tampa Bay (hahah). Any combo of a 9ers loss or Seatte win and they clinch.

    The funny part is, if some miracle happens.. they end up tied with the same win/loss record, but the Niners win the division because they swept the season series... AAAHhahah!

    Don't worry, the Ravens will take care of that when they knock them out of the playoffs.

    I think Rex Grossman's 42 gunslings will prevent that come playoff time. Just a hunch.

    He had a good game last week. All he really has to do is settle down and cause less than 2 turnovers a game. He's practically guaranteed a defensive or special teams score against any NFC team. The only team Chicago really has to worry about is New Orleans. Hasselbeck's receivers can't catch and Romo can have as bad of habits as Grossman in big games.

    Right now I'd just be happy with a wildcard.

    Just seeing the niners back in the playoffs in any form can do wonders for their team.

    Watching the Monday Night game in StL this week was comical.

    Every Bears possession seemed like they were playing at Soldier Field instead of the Jonesin' Dome.


    Its a good feeling to be a Stl Cardinals / Bears fan. Best of both worlds.
