It's likely down to the Seahawks, Rams, and Eagles in terms of teams who can win the NFC.
One of those things is not like the other. The Rams and the Seahawks are a tier above the Eagles this year. Personally I can't see anyone stopping Seattle this year.

Yep, when they were officially eliminated, they were 1-10 and had the #1 pick. Then 5 straight W's lol, this is what my teams do.. Flames and Saints are incapable of tanking.

But the reason you want that top 3 pick is you need that franchise QB. Still early, but seems the Saints may already have theirs, hence their stumbling in the Draft order. It's a good sign, now build around him. Officially have the 8th pick, you can get a stud there. Just truly go BPA.

...and that's the last time I mention my crappy team in this thread for the season, aside from OROY results and/or potential off-field incidents.

Good for Myles. Watt and Strahan had some terrible gift stat sacks.
Shelby Harris high fiving the ref right after was classic.

Chargers sitting most regular starters on both side of the ball. But “This defense is for real” though according to Romo after Lance gets picked off in his 5th game in 3 seasons.
Broncos and Nix are a good chance to be upset in a couple weeks.

Raiders with 6 net passing yards, Chiefs with 0 net passing yards. This is the kind of absolutely ass football we deserve lol.

Bills need to go back to the red helmets full time, such a classic look.

Bears are going to end up an easy out from San Fran. It's a fun first year of Ben Johnson, but this defense is just so bad

I mean it was like 3800 yards which is about the most Bears stat there is lol. Might be time for Caleb to try and break the 4000 yard glass ceiling.

Denver's lack of offence is slightly troubling. Shame they never chose to meaningfully address the RB position. Maybe next year.

Chiefs need to push for a FG next possession and the 11-9 scorigami.

Shame on both teams, both the Raiders and Chiefs should lose their first rounders.

Jets have done it! An entire year without recording an interception

I'm going Rams, Eagles, Bears next week in NFC. Poor Carolina.. (though at home, they may hang for a bit. Need rain like their game in Tampa yesterday)

Falcons actually clean house, Raheem and Fontenot both out. Will probably be a pretty appealing job with a clean slate and a decent base.
