Who Makes The Playoffs?

Know what I love about this board compared to every other Vikings board that I've ever been part of? It's mine! No, just kidding! I love it because many of us actually care about the rest of the league! So many other Vikings boards ... and the NFL sections are dead. But why? Sure, I'm a Vikings fan first, but I am an NFL fan at a very, very close second. The heck is wrong with people who don't care about the league as a whole? Get with the program! Anyway, we're a quarter of the way through. I'm not sure we know much more about who's who in the NFL, but let's take a stab at it! Who do you think will make the playoffs?!

Here are my thoughts ... and some are simply my hopes and wishes. 

NFC

North - Vikings
East - Eagles
South - Falcons
West - Rams 

Wild Card: Lions, Redskins

AFC

North - Steelers
East - Bills
South - Texans
West - Chiefs

Wild Card: Patriots, Broncos

In the AFC, I always pick my AFC Vikings: the Bills. I'm just sick of the Patriots. The Bills have been improving for a while, so hopefully this is their year to fight for the division. Let's hope the Patriots fall off a cliff ... and stay there. Wishful thinking, I know! But hopefully the Bills at least get the Wild Card. I'd like to see the AFC mix it up! I hate that they always send the same three teams to the Super Bowl. Boooooring. Can we get the Chiefs in there? Raiders? I was really wanting the Chiefs or Raiders this year, but since Carr decided to break his body again ... GO CHIEFS!!! 

In the NFC, of course I chose the Vikings to win the North. Unlike Reignman's backward logic, I NEVER pick against the Vikings. Nope! That's just foolish, and I don't have it in me. I believe in my guys. Stupid ... I know, but hush. I wanted to pick the Redskins for the East, but if they keep getting injured ... it's not going to happen for them. I did pick them for the Wild Card, though. Where are the Cowboys? Out of the playoffs again like they were for so many years. They were overrated last year, and I think/hope they will prove to be overrated again this year. I really like Prescott, but I really don't like anything else about that team. Yuck! I'm actually rooting for the Rams. I've liked what I've seen out of them lately, aaaand, again, let's send some different teams to the playoffs, baby! The Seahawks have gotten boring. Seriously, I watched them the other night, and, I just can't. I'm over them! It was fun, but it's time to move on! Speaking of, wishful thinking but ... no Packers either! Wouldn't that be nice?!?

I'll post my thoughts for the Super Bowl after Week 8. I'll also come back and laugh at myself for how wrong I was.
