there is also the NFL football effect, I tend to look away on weekends and pay attention to other matters and may have overlooked some poll rebound stuff.
So while the Ravens and the Texans are clearly the teams to beat in the AFN and AFS, the AFE has no team over 500 and AFW, until proven otherwise, is the AFW.
The story of course is NFW, with three teams at 4-2, teams who have beaten GB (x2) and NE (x2) ... a division with which the preponderance of their losses are against each other ... and that otherwise ATL is what folks often say about them this time of year but this time around the only undefeated team left, the NFN looks to grind itself into a hard fought winner yet to be determined (what's new, there is a reason they are the black and blue), and the Giants appear to be the good football team they are.
So I am handicapping in the NFC for GB, SF, NYG and ATL to take thier division with SEA and duBears to take the WCs.
On the AFC side the Ravens, Texans, Chargers and Patriots win their divisions, and while nobody cares who they come up with for WCs lets give it to the Jets and Bengals.
The top seeds, generally a bad thing, will be the Ravens and the Falcons.
And, the winner is???
Of all things,
the Green Bay Packers (although SF, SEA, Ravens or Texans might just pull it off).
