The Upcoming NFL PLayoff Season: The Best Ever?

[Yavin4]

Wow, just looking at the up coming schedule of games, and I think that this playoff season may be the best playoff match-ups ever. Everything seems wide open. There's not one single team that's a shoo-in, and that includes the Colts.

1. Vikings are not in it so no

[trotsky]

3. I'll have to agree with you on that one!

Though at least with them out of it, I won't have to stock up on Pepto Bismol until next September.

[KamaAina]

10. Cowsissies are not in it so yes!

the nickname is a LynneSin original which I have co-opted.

[greenbriar]

2. no its not. The Chiefs had a better record than the pats

and the frikkin pats are in and the Chiefs are not!

[fishwax]

7. the chiefs didn't have a better record--they both finished 10-6 (n/t)

4. I can't wait

I'll be going the Giants game on Sunday. Should be fun.

I think the NFC is wide open and the AFC is a two team tourney with the Colts and Pats. I think the Colts will emerge as the champ.

[NJ Democrats]

5. Go Giants!

[Bill McBlueState]

8. the Colts and Pats?

You really are that sure that the Patriots (10-6) will be more of a factor than the Broncos (13-3), the Jaguars (12-4), or the Steelers (11-5)?

[DaveinMD]

9. the Pats

have been one of the hottest teams in the league over the stretch run until they decided to treat their last game as a preseason match. And they have Tom Brady. They are also getting healthier. I think they'll beat the Jags rather easily. Pitt is the last wild card. Hardly a dominating team. Maybe they beat Cincy, but they'll get rolled by the Colts. Can't trust the Broncos in the playoffs because of Plummer.

13. The Pats can take the Colts

I hope we get to that. It will be a great game, and I am sticking with the Pats till they pry the Super Bowl Champions T-shift off my cold, beer-soaked body.

6. Seattle All The Way

Go ahead and send them their rings.

[CatholicEdHead]

11. They have to get by Da Bears first

[BamaLefty]

12. It'll be a good game

but it'll be in WA so I give it to the Seahawks as of right now...

[Dulcinea]

14. Watch out for the Steelers!

They're peaking at just the right time!

HERE WE GO STEELERS, HERE WE GO!!

And, the Jags are no pushovers. They'll give the Pats a game!
