FWIW I had the SB as KC vs NO. If I had to pick now, Id pick NE vs NO because I feel the KC defense is still terrible and will doom them again in the playoffs.

New Orleans will be fine especially if they keep racking up wins with Bridgewater.

For the AFC everyone knows its Chiefs Pats. Theres a large gap between them and the 3rd best team. Barring an injury to Mahomes or Brady its almost guaranteed thats who it its going to be in the AFC. They both played not so great games yet still win. Even supposedly good team like the Rams cant do that.

I wouldnt worry about KCs D not being as good as New Englands, it isnt, and it wont be when they meet int he playoffs. New Englands O isnt near as efficient as KCs and while NE D can smother inferior Os its still not an elite D. KC will have no trouble with them and to be fair they will have no trouble with our D, but I feel KCs A game will beat out NEs A game this year.

The Pats are always hard to dismiss because they are good at changing their identity when they need to. All the sudden they become a running team that can rush for 200 yds game controlling the clock. etc. Im still picking Chiefs though.

My gut tells me Dallas is the team, though.

Dallas has imploded these last few years when it's crunch time. If Bridgewater can keep New Orleans afloat until Brews returns, I think it's them or the Rams. I don't trust Dak Prescott.

Saints are too low.

Prison Bitch · 10-01-2019, 08:34 PM

Alternatively in % terms:

Patsies 22.2%
Chiefs 16.0%

So almost 40% chance one wins it.

The Seahawks are a good value bet, imo.

I truly wonder how good some of the NFC teams are in comparison to the AFC:

Dallas Cowboys have lost to the Jets and beaten up on the Dolphins.

New Orleans Saints narrowly beat the Texans, and only beat the Jaguars by a score of 13-6.

Green Bay beat the Broncos and Raiders handily and if they win on Sunday then it's not against Mahomes so it's a muted win.

Rams beat the Browns by 7 and only face one good AFC team in the Ravens on 11/25.

49ers have whooped the Bengals and Browns but only beat the Steelers by 4. Which is weird to give them three AFC North opponents in a row but anyways.

Vikings whooped Oakland and same goes with KC if they face a team without Mahomes then that's easier for them and a muted win if they do win.

I think that the NFC is a bunch of good teams, but not any great teams. The Saints will be a great team when Brees gets back, assuming he doesn't falter this year like Brady has, and in that case I'm not scared of them. I think it's the AFC's Super Bowl to lose. JMO.

Just noticed this was as of 9/25

With the Rams loss they had to have dropped. Same with Cowgirls. 49ers look juicy to me.

I dunno man, I think they're pretty good.

They've got a legit DL and front 7 on D, the offense with Shannahan is pretty nice too.

I wondered how in the heck Chicago was still that high.

And juicy they turned out to be. Current odds AFC, per Bovada :

Patsies +275
Ravens +350
Chiefs +1000

It’s still an arms race even after the AB debacle.

Just wait until the trade deadline... both teams will be looking to make a substantial move and likely will.

Halfcan · 10-02-2019, 08:30 AM

Pats have the easiest schedule in the NFl- while the Chiefs will be battle-tested against tough teams playing their SuperBowls against us every Sunday.

Chief's D. would be looking great against the teams the Pats get to play.

Wow there is a big jump from #2 to #3 in the odds.

At the moment looks like a two team race, hope both teams will be healthy throughout the season and into the playoffs.

Dec.'s game between KC/Pats should be great.

KC offense is still steaming along, Pats D has been solid since about the Minn game last season, but did yield 31 points to KC in the 2nd half of the AFCCG.

Pats have lost a few guys on offense so that will hurt. I like the Pats chances as home in Dec., but KC tied the game late last year.

We should get a better idea as the two teams play more games to see what teams the two have in Dec.
