    These are the teams that look like they'll be making it to the playoffs at the moment. But they're some bumps that have to overcome.

    1)Philly 7-0
    2)Pittsburgh
    3)New England 6-1
    4)N.Y. Jets 5-2
    5)N.Y. Giants 5-2
    6)Minnesotta 5-2
    7)Atlanta 6-2
    8)San Diego 5-3
    9)Green Bay 4-4
    10)Indianapolis 4-3
    11)Houston 4-3
    12)St. Louis 4-3

    1) Philadelphia - Pittsburgh is up this week and with their first 7-0 start ever they're confidence is sky high. But will it up hold??? Check out their schedule for the last 9 games.

    @ Pittsburgh - This game should determine their status for best team in the NFL
    @ Dallas - Tuna's Cowboys should never be overlooked
    v. Washington - As long as Brunell's in the way, this year's over for the Skins
    @ N.Y. Giants - I'm really excited to see this one go down
    v. Green Bay - Better hope Favre's streak comes to an end
    @ Washington
    v. Dallas
    @ St. Louis - At St. Louis on a Monday Night game. Showdown, that's all i can say
    v. Cincinatti - NO BENGALS NO
    prediction 6-3 Giants, Packers and Rams

    2) Pittsburgh - Feeling big with a win over the 21-0 Patriots, but are they ready for the Eagles???? I don't think so. Their schedule is'nt a cake walk either.

    v. Philadelphia - A very big game for the Steelers
    @ Cleveland - this might actually crush Clevelands' hopes at the playoffs
    @ Cincinatti - If they can stay focused and healthy this should be a breeze
    v. Washington - I'm done talking about Brunell and the Skins
    @ Jacksonville - We'll have to see the status on the Jags with Leftwhich out.
    v. N.Y. Jets - Boy this will be an exciting game. I'm clueless at the moment
    @ N.Y. Giants - this will be a test for both teams. Depends on the injuries.
    v. Baltimore - Baltimore is not going to let this be an easy game. they never do
    @ Buffalo - Stop McGahee you win.
    prediction 6-3 Eagles, Giants and Ravens

    3) New England - 21-0 is pretty dam impressive. But it's been a while since the Pats have had a losing streak and i believe it's starts now.

    @ St. Louis - The Rams are looking to bounce back from a dissapointing loss
    v. Buffalo - like i said stop McGahee you win.
    @ Kansas City - If they come prepared they should walk with this one
    v. Baltimore - I'm going with Baltimore on this one, i just have a gut feeling
    @ Cleveland - man Clevelands really having trouble looking for an easy game
    v. Cincinatti - Wow!!! are you serious. This is'nt fair
    @ Miami - Monday night showdown. We'll see!!!!!!!!
    @ N.Y. Jets - Revenge
    v. San Fransisco - The 49ers are looking for the #1 pick they'll fall to this one
    prediction 6-3 Rams, Ravens and Jets

    4) New York (J) - With an unbelievable ass woopin to the #4 defense i'm pretty sure they'll be quite confident going into next weeks game.

    @ Buffalo - Do i have to say it again
    v. Baltimore - a bigger test for the Jets' offense
    @ Cleveland - Man o man Clevelands really having some trouble
    @ Arizona - *yawns* What???? oh umm........ JETS WIN
    v. Houston - Even though the Texans are on fire at the moment. NOT IN JET CITY
    @ Pittsburgh - In Steel City, oh man oh man.
    v. Seattle - Really it all depends on the Seahawks, this could go either way
    v. New England - Revenge is so sweet
    @ St. Louis - Even though it's in Ram territory i'm sticking with the Jets
    prediction 7-2 Ravens and Steelers

    5) N.Y. Giants - Ah yes the G-man. Tiki no fumble + Warner no play bad = a shot at the playoffs. This is a nice last couple of games

    v. Chicago - I don't know why but i think the Giants will play bad
    @ Arizona - *Yawns* what???? WHAT???????? GIANTS DAM IT
    v. Atlanta - Can they contain Vick. We'll see
    v. Philadelphia - Wrong side of the tracks Eagles
    @ Washington - *yawns*
    @ Baltimore - I don't know. You tell me.
    v. Pittsburgh - Shine Giants SHINE
    @ Cincinatti - what the hell is this, Cleveland and Cinci are'nt getting any love
    v. Dallas - Sorry G-men but Tuna wants revenge
    prediction 6-3 Bears, Falcons and Cowboys

    6) Minnesotta - This team here is a little hard to predict around mid season. They love to start off strong and finish weak. We'll have to see what happens

    @ Indianapolis - Two high powered offenses go at it.
    @ Green Bay - Watch out cause Favre's coming through
    v. Detroit - Being at home might be an advantage
    v. Jacksonville - We'll see how they hold up to this D
    @ Chicago - They struggled last time, we'll see what happens this time
    v. Seattle - I honestly think one of these teams needs a boost this might be it
    @ Detroit - Depends on how both teams are playing at the time
    v. Green Bay - If it's a battle for a playoff spot this game will be really good
    @ Washington - Next year Gibbs
    prediction 4-5 Colts, Packers, Seahawks, Lions and Packers

    7) Atlanta - The Michael Vicks will have a nice bumpy road before a chance at the playoffs.

    Bye
    v. Tampa Bay - Vick always gives the Bucs trouble, it should be good
    @ N.Y. Giants - Another showdown for the playoffs
    v. New Orleans - Who knows.
    @ Tampa Bay
    v. Oakland - please the Raiders are struggling to find any type of a win
    v. Carolina - Injuries for the Panthers give them no chance
    @ New Orleans - Again who knows
    @ Seattle - Depends on how the Saints game turned out. This one is up in the air
    predictions 5-3 Bucs, Saints and Seahawks

    8) San Diego - Last year i would of laughed if you said Drew Brees would throw 5 td's in one game. This is a different year for the Chargers

    v. New Orleans - If they can keep the Saints offense off the field it should be a W
    Bye
    @ Oakland - Playing in the Nation could be a little different, but not by much
    @ Kansas City - They need to be well rested to hang with the Chiefs
    v. Denver - I think the Chargers can take them
    v. Tampa Bay - Never cancel the Bucs out
    @ Cleveland - poor poor Cleveland
    @ Indianapolis - another showdown, but could be in Colts favor
    v. Kansas City - could be revenge for either team. We'll see
    prediction 4-4 Chiefs, Browns, Colts and Chiefs

    9) Green Bay - Slow start, but you never count out Mr. Favre and the Pack. When it gets cold it's dangerous to play the Packers.

    Bye
    v. Minnesotta - Playing at home is a huge advantage
    @ Houston - Houston's on a roll lets see if it can stand
    v. St. Louis - Always a good game
    @ Philadelphia - In Philadelphia. Favre wants revenge
    v. Detroit - Detroit might take this one
    v. Jacksonville - I'm going with Green Bay
    @ Minnesotta - Depends
    @ Chicago - Depends
    prediction 5-3 Texans, Lions and Bears

    10) Indianapolis - What the hell is going on with this team. One minute they're blowing through teams the next they're getting stomped. Geez

    v. Minnesotta - high scores
    v. Houston - I don't think the Texans D is ready for Manning and gang
    @ Chicago - This could be a good game. Could, but won't
    @ Detroit - Colts win
    v. Tennessee - injuries hurt this team bad this year.
    @ Houston - Houston plays strong at home.
    v. Baltimore - this D might give them more trouble then any other
    v. San Diego - Not there yet Chargers
    @ Denver - Depends
    prediction 6-3 Texans, Ravens and Broncos

    11) Houston - Another young team trying to get some respect in the league. Could this be the year?????

    @ Denver - Confidence is real high for the Texans, but the Broncs need a win
    @ Indianapolis - not in Indy
    v. Green Bay - In Lambou maybe not, but at home it's a shot
    v. Tennessee - injuried
    @ N.Y. Jets - NO NO NO NO NO
    v. Indianapolis - Home field advantage
    @ Chicago - Could be a good game to watch
    @ Jacksonville - Revenge for the Jags
    v. Cleveland - sorry cleveland
    predicion 5-4 Broncos, Colts, Jets and Jaguars

    12) St. Louis - Another unpredictable team. But they usually finish strong. Well let's just hope for the Rams sake

    v. Seattle - Revenge, not this year
    @ Buffalo - NOpe i won't even say it
    @ Green Bay - No not in Lambou

    I dunno about that. Denver arguably has the best combo of offense and defense in the AFC. If Jake the Snake lowers the turnover number, the team could be tough to stop.

    How come someone looking at a schedule and doubting a team makes the playoffs makes that person a "hater"? Maybe hes just a realist that isnt being swayed by an emotional attachment to the team in question....You think the Jets are good, everyone else thinks they are shit, so I ask you, J-E-T-S 1083 why are you a Jets lover? BF1 just predicted that they wont make the playoffs but you say they will, I dont get it....

    Jets play 7 teams with a real chance to make playoffs of last 9 opponents. The best team they have beaten San Diego. Jets have not proven themselves to be a good team, and until they do there are going ot be doubts
