With the Panthers(6-8-1) vs Atlanta(6-9) next week, it's winner take "all". Unless they end up with a tie...

I think any division in football than can't put up a winner should be disqualified. They certainly shouldn't be rewarded with a home wildcard game.

And we should have mercy and not be forced to watch the Buccaneers play the hapless 'Aints when great matchups like Lions vs Packers, Cincy at Pittsburgh, even Panthers at Atlanta are on...

Bengals Steelers has been flexed to your night game. So the very last game of the regular season will be a battle for the AFC North.
I'm pretty disappointed that the Cards have had such a miserable year with injuries, and without home field, I don't think they can get very far.
Otherwise, these playoffs seem promising this year. I'm ok with a poor record making the playoffs, as anything can happen once they start.

But hey, you could be the Raiders or the Browns...
This started out having that feel of superiority coming from the high and mighty champagne popping mountain.

(Which, BTW, is the absolute worst part of EVERY NFL season)

In any case, looks like I'm rooting for teams that haven't had a Championship in the past 20+ years, if ever.

As a Falcons fan I'm really ambivalent about making the playoffs. They need help, but draft help will be more difficult to obtain if they win the division. A lot to sacrifice for a likely first round exit.

Very crappy division, but you get a fresh start in the playoffs and if you can get hot, you never know....I think the Falcons have a much better chance of doing that than Carolina does...
Also, remember what happened a few seasons ago. Seattle got in as a 7-9 team & knocked the defending champs (Saints) out in the first round. This season though, it's looking like Seattle has a real good chance to repeat.
Yeah, I hate to say it, but I think the AFC is going to struggle this year in the Super Bowl.
