It will be between SF and Philly to fight it out in the NFC for who plays the Swifties in Las Vegas. 

Unless Buffalo stays on their lithium dosages from here on out, then they could be contenders. But I don't see that happening. 

How will the playoffs advance?

The Chefs are beatable this year, but only by a team that can match them offensively. We could be that team if we could get on a roll with offense. Right now, we can't.

I wouldn't leave out the Cowboys just yet, even tho they lost to the Eagles and got hammered by the 9ers.

I don't see anyone stopping the Eagles in the NFC.

It's anyone's dance in the AFC. I like our chances as much as the the Chiefs or Ravens. I still think the Dolphins are frauds and will get exposed at some point.

If there is an AFC team that could do it, it’s the Ravens. I want to say the Jags but we aren’t as complete of a team.

AFC is wide open. Jalen Phillips going down for the Fins is huge but they can score 40 on anyone.

NFC. I actually think it’s a 3 team race between Eagles, 49ers and Cowboys. Right now, I give the edge to the 49ers if everyone is healthy.

Agreed on the NFL.  If the 49ers are fully healthy I think they are the best team in the league.

I don’t know. I think Dak Prescott is a choker.

Yeah, if Chris Jones is healthy, we're up against it trying to get the upset.

I still can't get behind Lamar, just seems that big games are his kryptonite. The rest of the AFC playoff picture all have flaws, but the field is about as level/unpredictable as one could get. Honestly, Houston scares me most as a wildcard team. If Miami has to play in the cold, they may end up one and done.

Gotta agree with OP, if the Niners or Iggles make it out of the NFC bracket, the trophy is likely theirs for the taking.

January will be exciting, no matter how the teams fall into the playoff picture, though.
