Ive looked at the schedules and heres what I think of the remaining playoff hopefuls. My last playoff predictions were just what sounded right after looking at the schedule heres what will really happen.
AFC
1. New England 14-2 2. Pittsburgh 13-3 3. Indianapolis 12-4 (beat SD so they get 3rd seed.) 4. San Diego 12-4 5. Baltimore 11-5 (beat NYJ so they get 5th seed.) 6. New York Jets 11-5
Everyone else
Jacksonville 10-6 Denver 9-7 Houston 8-8 Cincinnati 7-9 (beat Buffalo so ahead in standings) Buffalo 7-9 Kansas City 7-9 Oakland 5-11 Tennessee 4-12 (beat Miami so ahead in standings) Miami 4-12 Cleveland 3-13
NFC
1. Philadelphia 13-3 (beat Detroit, who Atlanta lost to winning them Homefield Advantage 2. Atlanta 13-3 3. Green Bay 12-4 4. Seattle 9-7 5. Minnesota 10-6 6. Carolina 8-8 (Better conf. record than Dallas and Detroit, beat St. Louis)
Everyone Else
Dallas 8-8 (better conf. record than St. Louis, beat Detroit) St. Louis 8-8 (better conf. record than Detroit) Detroit 8-8 Arizona 7-9 New York Giants 5-11 (better div. record than Washington, better conf. record than Tampa Bay) Washington 5-11 (beat Tampa Bay) Tampa Bay 5-11 Chicago 4-12 (better conf. record than New Orleans) New Orleans 4-12 San Fransisco 1-15
Playoffs

Divisional Playoffs
IND at PIT- 38-24 PIT BAL at NE- 27-0 NE MIN at PHI- 34-28 PHI GB at ATL- 26-13 GB
Conference Championship
PIT @ NE- 20-17 PIT GB @ PHI- 30-28 GB
SUPER BOWL XXXIX
The Green Bay Packers v.s The Pittsburgh Steelers- 28-27 Packers
I think that the Steel Curtain will lose to the Jags, and Ravens.
I think that the Jets will beat New England
And I think the Eagles will lose to Green Bay, and get upset in St. Louis.
That would definetly be an interesting Super Bowl, Favre's oppurtunity to be a Super Bowl MVP. Roethlinsberger's oppurtunity to be the first rookie QB to lead his team to the promised land. And the Steelers oppurtunity to tie us and the 49ers for most Super Bowl victories. It may pass that game between us and the Steelers in Super Bowl XXX as the most watched Sporting Event in History.
