I  have just recently began looking at this news group but I want to get into
the spirit of things and post my predictions for divison/playoffs spots. Why,
you may ask, I don't know. So here goes.

AFC

Divison leaders:

East:
      This one is tough to call. Both teams are very, very good and I respect
both teams. However, I do feel compelled to say that the Bills will pull this 
one for 2 reasons.
      1. If things remain consistent, the Bills will probable have the better
         divison record. Therefore, the Bills can afford a tie.
      2. Miami still has to play the Saints and 49er. Personally, I think 
         they can win one of these games, but not both.
      However, I do feel that Miami is not out of it. They are still in
good position to still take the divison.


Central:
      The Steelers. They have a 2 game lead. They can afford a tie. Their
      magic number is 3.

West:
      Note: I am goin on the assumption KC beat Seattle. Please feel free to
      to correct me if I am wrong.

      This one is going to be a battle between Denver and KC. This one is 
just to close to call. I think this one will be decided the last game of the
season. I'm personally rooting for Denver but thats my opinion.


Will most likly, beyond any shadow of a doubt make the playoffs:

Buffalo, Miami, Steelers.

Will probable make the playoffs:

Denver, KC.

Might Make the playoffs:

This obne is tough. The finaly wildcard spot will most likly be a battle
between San Diego, Cleveland, the Colts, and the Raiders. The first one is
a real posiblity being the only team with a .500 record. But I think Cleveland
has a slim chance like the other two. Personally I think the Raiders might do
it but again its my opinion so sue me.



NFC

East:
     The Cowboys. I thinks the Redskins still have problems to work out and 
what is more, the Cowboys can afford a tie with the eagles (Better Divison
record).

Central:
     THe Vikings. Assuming the Vikings beat the Packers, there magic number is
two. Otherwise, there defense is good enough to save the Vikings horrible
offense.

West:
     This one is tough to call. I would have to say the 49ers only because 
they will win any tiebreakers. But like the AFC East, it could easily go the 
otherway.

Will make the playoffs beyond any reasonalbe doubt:
The Cowboys, Vikings, 49ers, and Saints.

Will probable make the playoffs:
Even though they are not looking that strong, lately I would have to say the 
Eagles will most likely make the playoffs assuming they don't screw up.

Might make the playoffs:
I know I am going  to get flamed here.

I personally think the Saints will beat the Redskins tonight even though
it will be a good game. If, however the Redskins should win, they stand a good 
chance in making the playoffs. If they don't, they are still in it but I do
feel that the Packers might, might, might, get the final wildcard spot.
The only resson why I am saying this is the fact that the Packers are looking
strong while the Redskins are not.
