Playoff Projections…Taking futures out of the equation, here are our current picks for the NFL Playoffs including our Super Bowl winner…

AFC

Baltimore

Houston

Kansas City

New England…AFC Champion

Oakland

Pittsburgh

NFC

Atlanta…Super Bowl Champion

Green Bay

New Orleans

NY Giants

Philadelphia

Seattle

Risers…Preseason sleepers/long-shot teams that have a much better chance of earning a playoff bid and possibly more now…

Jacksonville…As impressive a performance as it was in Houston last week, there is no way I would advise laying anything on the Jags to win a Super Bowl, no matter how good the odds.

Kansas City…Crush the defending champions and you make the list.

Minnesota…If Sam Bradford can stay healthy this will be a dangerous team.

Fallers…Preseason favorites/contending teams that are struggling now and might not contend for a playoff berth…

Arizona…Without David Johnson it appears futile to believe the Cardinals are anyone’s sleeper pick anymore.

Cincinnati…Changing offensive coordinators after the second week is a sure sign of desperation by Marvin Lewis.

Tennessee…If the Titans lose in Jacksonville today, they might start thinking of a new head coach soon.

Current Futures

New England…5-1

Green Bay…7-1

Dallas…10-1

Seattle…10-1

NY Giants…20-1

Denver…25-1

Baltimore…33-1

Tampa Bay…33-1
