I don't bet, but if I did, now that we're between Weeks 4 and 5, I'd bet on the following to make the conference championship games:

AFC:
Bills, Steelers, Browns

NFC:
Seahawks, Packers, Bucs

These dudes have given up over 30 PPG on defense. Unless this changes significantly they'll struggle to make the playoffs, much less making it past one playoff game.

No Chiefs, No Ravens, No Titans, but the Browns?

Yes. Imagine the ka-ching! ka-ching! if the Browns do make it.

After last night's game, I wouldn't consider the Bucs much of a threat.

AFC -
KC, Ravens, Bills, Steelers

NFC-
Seahawks, Packers, Saints, 49ers, and Rams

The Steelers to me are the sleeper team in the AFC, and probably the entire NFL.

Their literally the ONLY defense that looks great in the entire league, and with Roethlesberger back and playing at a high level, IMO they can beat anyone, especially when we get to November and December and the weather turns nasty.

I love our 4-0 start, but our division is brutal so I'm going to need to see how well we play once we get to our division games to say we're going to hang with teams like the Packers who have much easier schedules.

:sarcasm_on: Yeah the Steelers look really good playing *checks schedule* the Giants, Broncos, and Texans. :sarcasm_off:

They're opponent's record is a combined 1-11, with the only win being over the Jets! Of course they're 3-0!

Our opponents combined record is 4-12, must mean we suck too.

The Patriots are better than any team Pissburgh has faced. Atlanta and Dallas would probably be at least 2-1 against Denver, NYG, and Houston.

There are certain people who keep trying to make the Browns happen.

It's the Browns, guys. Be realistic.

Hey, good job, Ruminator! You nailed three of the four that made it, and would've gotten them all if the Browns (a prediction considered retarded by a few folks in the thread back in October) had just a little more in their tank yesterday. Very impressive!
