If you had to guess the Super Bowl participants today, who would they be?

We'll find out what the Bears are made of in the next weeks when they get Texans and 9ers. Think fading them against the Seachickens 4 weeks from now could be a big play for me.

The NFC is so deep it's ridiculous. Bears, Niners, Falcons, Packers. Giants/Buccs/Seahawks/Vikings have also looked good. Could easily be a throw up, but if there's a darkhorse, I'm thinking the Buccs can pull through if they can put a solid pass D together.

AFC is a much more simple story. Texans/Broncos/Patriots. Out of the three, Peyton is the only guy that I can see winning the AFC.


Broncos - Buccs.[/QUOTE

Don't sleep on the Steelers and the Bucs aren't even going to be in the playoffs. Too many tough losses already and tough schedule in back half. If they went 6-2 that would make them 10-6 which should still be out of the playoffs in the NFC

Hmm true! Should have looked at the records before predicting. TB has some tough games on their schedule.

Texans, Packers

bears cant handle teams that get pressure on the qb, oline doesnt hold up and cutler turns back into cutler when he under constant pressure....

Think the Broncos are dead in the water if they don't get the top seed.

I hate the Pats but looks like people forgot about them and in love with Denver/Houston.

They finally have good running game, most rushing td's in the NFL.
Receivers all over the place.
Very underrated Run defense only allowing 3.5 ypc.

They made the Broncos look like the Bills.

[ZetaPsi808]

I love how everyone is counting the Giants out

thats what everybody said about them in 2007 and 2011

they only won the superbowl in both years lmao

[Frisco]

Only people that wrote off the Pats are those who hate them. They can run the ball and stop the run which is big against teams like the Texans and Steelers.

People also said it in every other year, most of which they didn't even make the playoffs.

no they didnt. the giants have always been mediocre in the regular season.

[Dutch]

I think the 49ers claw their way to the SB.

So 49ers vs...? Idk, hopefully the Steelers.

[WHATaTEASE]

Broncos - Bears

[No coincidences]

no they didnt. the giants have always been mediocre in the regular season.

Can't count the G-men out with that defensive front and Eli -- the anti-Romo.

With that being said, I think the Niners are a more complete team and would beat them this time around if they were to meet.

[seaborneq]

Before the season started I put a little something on Pats vs Bear at +5650. So it will be anybody but those two teams.

[celtics3388]

AFC - Pats, Steelers, Texans, Broncos
NFC - Gaints, Packers, Falcons, Niners

out of these contenders right now it's tough to say since things change so much in the NFL with injuries and momentum but gun to my head i'd go with Pats-Niners and I think the Niners win. i'd rank the AFC 2-4 as Broncos, Steelers, Texans and NFC 2-4 as Giants, Falcons, Packers. just noticed this but it's weird that there is exactly one representative from each division (im sure a lot of people have the Bears in this discussion but their offense is anemic if teams are smart enough to take away Marshall and take chances man up with the other WR's)

[seaborneq]

Based on the Eye Test I would bet the Mortgage on Denver vs Giants. In New Orleans. I think I want to Puke.

[p19101]

My guess pre season was a repeat of last year, AGAIN.

It's a long way to go and while NYG has looked terrible last weeks they have some margin in the NFC East and still could come out on top. If they make the play offs I still like them to get to the SB. I think Philly wins tonight and that scares me.

[floridagolfer]

Bears/Steelers

Agreed.

[Robber]

Top 2 afc Houston Denver
Top 2 NFC giants San fran

[Frisco]

Call me crazy but i really think Seattle can win the NFC. Russ Wilson keeps getting better and with Lynch and that D they will be in every game.
