Indy, NE, Cinci, J-Ville & Denver have clinched in the AFC. Pitts, SD and KC are going for the last Wild Card spot with the Steelers probably having the best bet having to play Detroit.
The NFC is a bit more open as only the Seahawks, Bears and Giants with clinched spots. There are quite a few scenarios for the remaining two spots. At this point, I think everything favors Tampa and Washington if they win they are in.
The AFC playoffs are going to be tight top to bottom. The Pats (6-1), Bengals (4-1) and Steelers (3-1) have all been hot since getting beat by Indy.
KC and SD are both probably going to miss the playoffs and I think they are better than most of the NFC teams.

Cinci already beat Pittsburgh this year and I can see Carson Palmer playing out of his mind (um, moreso than he has all season) and squeaking out a win. Then they go to Denver and lose 33-10.

Tampa -- They are about the same team as the Skins except they have a youngin' at QB. Until they got rolled by the Pats, I was thinking they may be the team to win the NFC. I'm not as sure now, but they are at home and the core of the defense has been in the playoffs a bunch.
J-Ville -- I've been impressed by their improvement the past couple of years, as I have seen them play four times against the Colts. Their defense is a bunch of rough necks, especially up front. Considering how well Leftwich played his senior year limping around on one leg, I think he will be OK coming off the injury and starting in the playoffs. I personally had a feeling Leftwich might be the best of that big group of QBs that year out of college, he seems so relaxed and completely in control.
NE- These guys are like Dracula, no one is going to "really" believe they are dead until the sun is up and the body isn't moving and has a big stake in their heart. They have "Seymore" and Tedi back on D, so maybe they might have it going on. I think they really miss having Rodney Harrison in the d-backfield, as teams seem to be able to pass like mad against them. I think Brady is going to have to come up big and J-ville has a pretty good pass defense.
Carolina- I did not see them play this year. They seem to be like most NFC teams which are fantastic for a week, then turn to suck another week. It does not appear that their defense is quite as good this season.
Giants- The biggest thing with the Giants is putting the rock in the end zone, as they seem to be able to move the ball at will a good portion of the time. They are their own worse enemy as they have either stupid penaltys, dropped passes, turnovers, missed field goals or giving up big returns that costs them games or keeps them close. How will they do, hard to figure. The defense is good, but they are not immune to stupid penalties and giving up big plays.
Steelers- Big running game and they are good at stopping the run, which is usual Pittsburgh football. They don't seem to be as good at rushing the passer this season. I think the big thing that hurt the Steelers this year against the Colts and Bengals was getting away from their usual MO and trying to shoot it out. They have blown a bunch of chances at getting to the Super Bowl, so part of me thinks they are due.
Cinci- They were kicking it big time until they clinched their division. The Buffalo game was a wash, they gave up a punt return and interception for a TD (to the same guy no less) and flubbed the game away. Last week they looked like they were playing the last game of the pre-season. I thought Marvin Lewis was going to blow a socket, he was freaking out on people so hard on the sidelines last week. I think they have been humbled a bit, so it will be interesting to see how they come out on Sunday. The O is going to have to put some pressure on the Steelers and try and break them out of controlling the clock on the ground.

Tampa over Wash - This one can go either way. I'm going with the Bucs D to hold down Portis and force the Skins to have to air it out.
NE over J-ville - I want to pick the Jags, but the Pats seem to find that way to win. Both of these teams I think would like another crack at Indy.
NYG over Carolina - Who knows how this one will turn out. On paper, I think the Giants are the better team.
Cinci over Pitts - I'm not going against the Bengals, even though they put it on autopilot the last two weeks. It should be a good game.

If Cinci beats Pittsburgh then they will go to Denver (where they will get killed) and NE goes to Indy for the long-awaited WAR TO SETTLE THE SCORE.
― NoTimeBeforeTime (Barry Bruner), Friday, 6 January 2006 17:57 (nineteen years ago)
Everyone in the AFC wants another crack at Indy. Denver also got rolled out bad the last two years in the playoffs by the Colts. I think Ian Gold will try to kill Peyton Manning if he ever gets a free hit on him. John Lynch also picked up a big fine for the cheap hit he put on Dallas Clark last year.

I really dunno who to root for this year? The idea of Pittsburgh winning another SB basically makes me want to pee out my butt for the rest of my life, but they are also the most reasonable and lovable team in the entire league. As much as I'd like for a marginal fagdog franchise like the Sea Hawks (the most undignified bird in the world btw - like the foul SHRIKE, they kill without honor!!!) to finally win something, the team itself is basically a band of unconscionable trollops.
