I think it is going to be a very interesting and very fun to watch stretch run for the playoffs this year. I think most teams (those in the playoff hunt) will have to continue to play for something through atleast week 16, compared to the last few years where a lot of the teams had already clinched a spot and couldn't move up or down.

I agree, I can say this... after my Jaguars have blown 2 games to the Texans... we can't afford to screw up anymore.
Even better... we travel to Arrowhead for the season finale, which could very well determine the 6th wc spot.

as odd as the playoff picture is......miami (5-6) and pittsburgh if they win (5-6) are not done yet.....each have favorable games remaining especially against teams important to beat ahead of them (new york and jacksonville for miami, cincinatti for pitt....)
As unlikely as it may seem, (even though both teams did it last year) if either team wins 5 of their next 6, expect one of them to make the playoffs......
THe chiefs winning tonight may have made that much harder, but crazier things have happened....look at pittsburgh and washington last year.....
The way i expect things to shake out in the AFC
1)Indy
2)San diego
3)New england
4)Baltimore
5)Cincinatti
6)Denver
but if miami beats jacksonville (with that defense playing david garrard) i fully expect the fins to at least be in the discussion of the playoff picture.....same deal with pittsburgh....dont count either out

Looks like so far the only changes on this would be the Jags getting knocked out of the sixth seed and the Panthers being knocked out of the division lead.
If it's super bowl picks then I think that the Chargers and Bears will play. I hope that Peyton never gets a ring. I really don't like the guy. That's just me.

Yeah they're fighting for the fourth spot ... in the division.
They will be in the playoffs next year or maybe this year. But next year for sure. I guarantee it. You can quote me on it.
