    this year is so wide open, anyone can win it. I don't think Carolina is as good as their record would indicate. Denver is a fraud, and NE is decimated by injuries

    Fact: This will be better than bowl pick'em because NFL playoff is a crapshoot every year. Last two years have been rare exceptions when a favorite wins.

    the top seeds were much better in the past few years than they are this year. especially in the AFC

    Picking Seattle, but part of me feels like the script calls for Denver to win in spite of Manning. This year feels sloppy.

    KC and Pitt might be the two best teams in the AFC. Denver has the best defense in football but their offense is so bad I'm not sure it matters.

    He's right. You're sacrificing a potential point by including both teams.

    If NE was healthy they would roll through the AFC. They really need Edelman especially with Blount and Lewis done for the year.
