I feel the Saints are gonna surprise some people this year. Its like they forgot about how good they can be when healthy and with Sean Payton on the sidelines.

anyone can beat anyone in the NFL numbnuts


Falcons will play in the NFC championship again this year, likely losing to the Niners

These four are all interchangeable IMO, but there is a gap between them and the rest of the NFC.

Well I see them losing in the wild card round to any of the teams I listed.

I agree with the first 3, but Atl is not better than New Orleans.

1. San Francisco
2. Seattle
3. Atlanta
4. Green Bay
5. Washington
6. New Orleans

These are my teams that will make the playoffs. Obviously not by seed, but more of a power ranking. Washington is based on RGIII being healthy.

Its basically being remade, so I'm not sure how much we know about the Saints defense. Also, just keep scoring and let the chips fall where they may.

Didn't the saints split their game with the falcons? Even with one of the worse defenses ever and without our head coach?

1. San Fran- they have best offensive/defensive lines and LB in NFC IMO. If they find someone to step up for Crabtree that is a plus but even if they don't they have enough talent to win 10 games and make playoffs where everything becomes a crapshoot.


2. Seattle- addition of Harvin adds a dimension to offense they were lacking. They have some defensive suspensions to overcome but they have a lot of depth and assuming Lynch doesn't fall back they will win 10

3. GB- with additions of Lacy and Franklin I think the running game finds a foothold and if that happens the offense will be scary even without Jennings. Getting everyone back healthy on D is a key with this team as they need to force turnovers

4. Atl- complete offense as they have a ProBowler all over the field with addition of Jackson who I believe goes for 1200 and 10 in that offense. Plus he is such a receiver out of the backfield it adds a dimension to the team

5. Saints- the offense will continue to click as long as Brees is at the helm. Ingram appeared to take a step in right direction but Saints lost an offensive lineman who was a probowler(even though saints fans say replaceable) the defense much like Atl is a work in progress. I like the LB and the additions in secondary but front 4 is a lot of meh. I think Atl has a more balanced offense which gives them the edge here
