Rank/Team/W-L
CONTENDERS
1.Packers 14-1 Even with the hiccup that was the KC game, this team has been the best week in and week out.
2.Saints 12-3 Put on an absolute show last night, but can they go up to cold icy Green Bay and take out the Pack?
3.Niners 12-3 The best defense in the league…too bad the rules are now all slanted to offense…you can’t even give a receiver or QB a dirty look without getting a flag!
4.Patriots 12-3 The best offense in the AFC but you have to play some defense, don’t you?
5.Ravens 11-4 They’ll be good to go until they either play on the road or need Joe Bledsoe to win a game for them.
6.Steelers 11-4 Don’t need homefield as badly as they need a healthy Roethlisberger.
PRETENDERS
7.Lions 10-5 The good news is they made the playoffs after what seems decades, but they will have to go on the road to play in them.
8.Falcons 9-6 Proved last night that they ain’t going anywhere in playoffs.
9.Texans 10-5 No QB=No Playoff wins.
10.Giants 8-7 In typical Giant fashion they took out the Jets and will probably gag against the Cowboys. You heard it here first….
11.Cowboys 8-7 Even if they get by the Giants, they will be one and done in playoffs.
12.Eagles 7-8 Now you decide to play now that the pressure’s off…
13.Bengals 9-6 They will show me something if they beat Baltimore and punch their ticket in…. having said that, I don’t expect to see it.
14.Jets 8-7 Hopefully this gag squad finishes on the outside looking in… and in the words of Bart Scott…”CAN’T WAIT!”
15.Titans 8-7 Another team still alive, but need lots of help.
16.Broncos 8-7 Let’s see what the almighty Tebow can do in a must win game.
17.Raiders 8-7 Win and they have good chances to either win division or wildcard. But winning is the big if….
ON THE CLOCK
18.Chargers 7-8 It’s all over but the crying for Norv now…will they play hard in the finale or just mail it in?
19.Cardinals 7-8 This record would’ve contended for the division in most years.
20.Seahawks 7-8 See Arizona message…
21.Chiefs 6-9 They can make it very hard not to hire Romeo if they take out the Broncos in Denver…
22.Panthers 6-9 Next year’s breakout team.
23.Dolphins 5-10 This team plays hard and has some pieces for the next coach…
24.Bills 6-9 Wow, this team has a pulse afterall.
25.Bears 7-8 Cutler will be insufferable now that he knows they can’t win without him.
26.Redskins 5-10 Much like this inept president and the turds in congress, this bunch in DC can’t get anything done!
27.Jags 4-11 This team has Jones-Drew and little else…
28.Browns 4-11 Can we all agree that the Walrus hasn’t done squat in Cleveland?
29.Vikings 3-12 This team just can’t win for losing….
30.Bucs 4-11 Pretty clear to me that these players have quit on their coach.
31.Rams 2-13 Another coordinator that couldn’t make the jump…
32.Colts 2-13 Please lose your last game so I can watch the drama with drafting Luck, Goober’s reaction, and his Dad fighting his battles for him!
