NFC North
1 Packers 11-5- As long as Aaron Rodgers is the QB the Packers will win games.
2 Lions 10-6- Reggie Bush finally gives the Lions a running game and he gives QB Matthew Stafford someone to throw to other than Megatron! Stafford to Calvin Johnson is a lethal combination.
3 Bears 7-9- The Bears could be a good team but Jay Cutler is just an average QB at best. They are weak at the WR position. Matt Forte is a great RB and Chicago's defense is solid.
4 Vikings 2-14- I'm still shocked this team made the playoffs last season. A.P is the lone bright spot for this team.
NFC South
1 Saints 12-4- The Saints have really turned their once crappy defense around. The offense is explosive. Expect the Saints to win the NFC South.
2 Panthers 9-7- Cam Newton is playing pretty good and the defense is solid. I don't think they will make the playoffs but they will have a winning record.
3 Falcons 5-11- The Falcons have suffered too many injuries. Julio Jones, Bradie Ewing and Kroy Biermann are out for the year, Sean Weatherspoon will be out most of the year, Roddy White and Steven Jackson have been hurt. The defense hasn't played well at all.
4 Buccaneers 2-14- Mike Glennon doesn't seem much better than Freeman and RB Doug Martin is hurt.
NFC East
1 Cowboys 9-7- The Cowboys could surprise some people this year. Tony Romo is better than people think he is and he has some great targets to throw to. The Cowboys need to run the football. Tony Romo isn't good enough to win games by himself. Romo needs to step up in important games. They win the division due to lack of competition in the NFC East.
2 Eagles 5-11- The Eagles have a lot of problems. The defense is bad and Vick is never healthy. Chip Kelly can't really run his crazy college style offense without him.
3 Giants 4-12- The Giants don't have much of a running game and they can't stop the run. The offensive line is terrible. Eli Manning is turning the ball over like there is no tomorrow.
4 Redskins 4-12- RG3 is playing terrible and defense is really, really bad.
NFC West
1 Seahawks 13-3- With dual threat QB Russel Wilson a great running game and an impenetrable defense the 'Hawks will be one of the best teams in the NFL.
2 49er's 11-5- 49ers also have a dual threat QB, Collin Kaepernick. Its debatable whether or not he's better than Wilson but he doesn't really have anyone to throw to. The O-line is possibly the best in the NFL. They have a great defense.
3 Cardinals 8-8- Last year the Cardinals started 5-0. Then they lost 11 strait. Now they have a real QB with Carson Palmer. He led the Raiders to have the 8th most passing yards in the NFL last season. That was with a team with no talent. The defense is really good. The Cardinals will surprise some people this year but they still have problems.
4 Rams 3-13- How do you not make the playoffs when your 4-1-1 in your division? The Rams found a way last season. I don't think they will be much better than last year especially with Bradford out for the year.
So based on these projections the playoffs would look like this:
Seed #1 Seahawks
Seed #2 Saints
Seed #3 Packers
Seed #4 Cowboys
Seed #5 49ers
Seed #6 Lions
