Lockout over soon...what teams make it to the playoffs?

[comfortably numb]

Looks like we get a full NFL season after-all. What are some of the teams you think will be playing into mid/late January 2012 this season?

[The Mayor]

NFC:
West - Rams
East - Eagles
South - Falcons
North - Packers
WC - Bucs, Lions

AFC:
West - Chargers
East - Patriots
South - Texans
North - Ravens
WC - Dolphins, Colts

Now you can all tell me how stupid you think I am. lol

No matter what I have to root for my Bears and against the dolphins, jaguars, and bucs.

I hear ya. I always root for my Lions whenever they play any local Florida team...it's who you grow up rooting for that sticks, not where you re-locate to find a job!!

I have to agree with most of your teams, Whiskey, but I think the Saints will make the playoffs in the NFC and in the AFC, I think you are being a homer concerning the Dolphins. I also doubt that the Texans make the playoffs, but all the other teams look about right.

I'm always a homer, but I don't think I'm being unrealistic. Our defense is sick and will only get better with free agency and another year in the system. New offensive coordinator will open up the offense and a stud speed back will be brought in for another dimension. I don't see any teams I left off that are better, with arguements for the Steelers and Chiefs being valid. Steelers are on the decline. Chiefs will struggle more this year.

Oh, and you weren't being a homer agreeing with my pick of the Lions, huh? ...

[comfortably numb]

Guilty as charged, Whiskey, I too will always be a homer, because it is so much fun!
