See, I said we had the edge of Jax last week and the guy who posted the playoffs said we didn't.

This is week 9 BTW, Rainy.

Wow, is the NFC weak or what?

I'm not even thinking playoffs until this team shows improvement.

We SHOULD be 7-3 and in comfortable playoff position by week 12, but that would still leave us without a single win over a decent opponent.

Jacksonville has it pretty easy finishing the season. But then you don't know how good or bad they are right now.

Combined record of AFC playoff teams. 32-12

Combined record of NFC playoff teams. 29-13

The gap is closing, but the AFC still has a slight edge overall.

Then again we were SUPPOSED to win the Eagles game when we were up at the half.

Yeah, no kidding. Vikes, Pack, Philly all tripping up will make for some new faces in the playoffs this year.

I actually heard this from a Chicago sports radio show: It's Da Bears division to lose. I chuckled.

That doesn't mean anything anyway. Just comparing the quality of the teams, specifically at the top, it's still lopsided.

You have to figure in the AFC record vs. NFC teams.

No, I really don't need any stats. Just having watched all these teams, it's pretty clear to me the AFC is still superior, and by a good margin.

NFC leads 18-17.

It's not as lopsided as it has been the last few years was the point I was trying to make..

I'll agree with that as I think the AFC is weaker than it's been in the past. But the NFC is still as weak as I can remember.
