Let's look at the remaining schedule and assume that most of the teams with 1 loss or less are going to beat most of the lesser teams on their schedule.
6. Baltimore (4-1)...they have a brutal schedule. CAR(L), @NO(W), CINCI(W), ATL(L), PITT(W), @Cinci (L), @KC(W) @Pitt(L)...that's 4-4 thru the harder games. 8-5 and they will win 2 of the other 3 easier games which makes them 10-6.
5. Denver (3-1)...they are a good team and the win tonight over Balt will help them but they also have a tough schedule and they also have some big ??? on offense like the Ravens. INDY(W), @Pitt(L), SD(W), @SD(L), @KC(L), SEA(W), CINCI(L)...this makes them 6-5 and they will go 4-1 over the rest of the schedule so that makes them good for 10-6.
4. Cincinnati (3-1)...this team is not what I would call a well oiled machine with all their problems off the field. But we see their schedule and it's not easy either. CAR(W), ATL(W), @Balt(L), SD(L), @NO(W), BALT(W), @Indy(L), @Den(L), PITT(W)...5-4 thru 9 fairly brutal games makes them 8-5, and they will win their easy ones so I have them finishing at 11-5.
3. San Diego (3-1)...they have an easier road ahead. @KC(L), @Cin(W), @Den(L), DEN(W), KC(W), @Sea(L)...this puts them at 6-4 and Marty will lose a game for them when they aren't supposed to and I have them at 11-5 for the season.
2. INDY (5-0)...does get tougher for them. WASH(W), @Den(L), @NE(L), @Dall(W), PHILLY(W), @Jax(L), CINCI(W)...4-3 on their tougher games...they lose one of their easier games along the way costing them home field and they end up 12-4.
1. NE (4-1)...I'm telling you they have an easy schedule and if they get home field, lookout. @MN(L), INDY(W), CHI(L), @Jax(W)...6-3 and they will finish 12-4 on the season locking up home field with their win at home against the Colts.
Balt @ SD
Denver @ Cinci
SD and Cinci win their games
Cinci @ NE
SD @ INDY
NE wins of course and SD knows how to beat INDY and does it again.
SD @ NE...heartbreaker for Rivers but NE takes it.
Now none of this matter much as the winner will face the Bears and have their ### handed to them by that monster that Lovie Smith has built.
OK, your turn. And don't give me just teams, give some reasons why. JAX, PITT, and KC fans...am I wrong?
