well one team got brutally exposed today. 1. Seattle (not overreacting) 2. Denver 3. NO 4. SF 5. NE Car joins the pile of dreck
NE might be too high without Gronk. The only worse thing that could have happened to them was losing Brady. OTOH, absolutely great day for Denver. There may not be a team in the AFC that can beat them at Mile High in the playoffs even with cold weather Peyton.
Carolina wins the rematch with NO.
Can't really complain about any of this though. I agree Seattle should stay at number one. This game played out pretty much exactly how I expected.
I really think Hawks-Saints rematch is going to be a close game. Payton>>>Carroll. Hawks arent going to stay undefeated at Century Link forever (i dont call it the Clink, because I'm not a faggot (75k)). I'd really would expect a Hawks win, but its not going to be anything like the Monday Night game.
It won't be a blowout again but I don't see a dome team winning outdoors in that stadium in the playoffs.
For as good as Payton is he does have two bad road playoff losses to teams everyone was picking the Saints to win(Seahawks in 2010 and 49ers in 2011).
Their defense is still pretenders and a one dimensional offense against the Seahawks defense can be shut down easily.
No Wright until the Super Bowl is huge since he was key in shutting down Graham.
I still think the Seahawks win that rematch rather easily say 34-10?

You realize Baltimore won today, don't you?
Zing?
Was it Flacco's 4.9 yards per pass or his three picks against the Minnesota dreckfest that convinced you they could do it again? Ray Rice looks like Sidney Rice. They've won one game on the road all year.
If the Seahawks can't beat one of these dreckfest AFC teams in the Super Bowl then FMFYFE.
The path is certainly there, they just can't screw it up. The only team I fear really is the niners
I don't fear the 49ers at all because I know the game will be at home. The 49ers have proven they can't play in Seattle the last two trips were plunger rapings.
updated power rankings 1. SEA (clearly the best team) Flaw: has trouble at times winning up front, especially on offense 2. SF (probably the hottest team, if the seahawks were to get upset they would probably win it all) Flaw: Kaepernick sucks against good defenses 3. Car (should beat NO sunday, would get the 2 seed) Flaw: Running game is questionable, experience 4. NO (they are horrible away from NO) Flaw: Shitty road team 5. NE (still trust brady over Peyton) Flaw: Injuries everywhere 6. DEN (Peyton + January, u do the rest) flaw: defense sucks 7. KC (I don't even know what to think about them now one week offense sucks, then suddenly the defense goes to shit) flaw: Alex Smith in the playoffs 8. DET (if they fire Schwartz before the playoffs they are a legit SB contender) Flaw: Jim Schwartz 9. CIN (this team is loaded, too bad marvin lewis fucking sucks) flaw: Andy Dalton and Marvin Lewis 10. GB (watch out if they get in and rodgers is healthy) flaw: Defense is trash the NFL is just a pile of crap this year, every single top team has a pretty clear flaw

Everyone thinks the 9ers are hot all of a sudden, but their 4 game win streak is: WAS, STL, SEA, and TB. A beat up Seattle at home is the only quality win, and it was a really tight game until the end.
Also Kaepernick is the definition of mediocre.
The only reason they might be a challenger is having Crabtree back to mask Kaepernick's deficiencies, but I still see them losing on the road in the first round.

Cinque reasons going national

Baltimore is nowhere near as good as last year.
1. SEA
2. NO
3. SF
4. NE
5. DEN
6. CAR
Would love to see Cincy pull it off somehow, Seattle would destroy Dalton.
Seattle matches up really well with them too.

The rest is a dreckfest so it doesn't really matter.
