  1. Chicago Bears (Paytonno1son)- This undefeated jaugernaut has had massive firepower led by their excellent offensive attack. They absolutely dominated their conference, and most importantly their division. Things don't come easy in the NFC North. With an undefeated record and obvious homefield advantage through their playoff run it will be hard for any team to cme in and beat Chicago at Soldier Field. Players to Watch: QB Max Jete, WR's Kevin White and Alshon Jeffery, RB Jeremy Langford. SS George Iloka, CB Kye Fuller.
  2. Seattle Seahawks (Jandy) - With the Hawks losing the first game against inter-conference rival Carolina Panthers in their very first game of the season, it really lit a fire under Seattle. They would go on to only lose 2 more games during the regular season.. The most recent loss was a heartbreaker to the hated Arizona Cardinals. This team always gets rowdy in the playoffs and causes trouble especially when teams have to come in and face the 12th man. Players to Watch: Russel Wilson, HB Giovani Bernard, and TE Jimmy Graham. SS Kam Chancelor MLB Bobby Wagner CB Richard Sherman.
  3. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (Jukemwr21) - Possibly the hottest team in the league at the moment, the Bucs are riding high, winning the last 12/13 after losing the first 3 games of the season. League MVP Jameis Winston looks better than ever in his 3rd year at the helm. This defense has every aspect of the 2002 Tampa SB winning team. Can the run last well into February or will the ship start to take on water now that the pressure is mounting. Player to Watch: QB Jameis Winston, WR Mike Evans, and HBAlfred Morris, LB Kwon Alexander, LB Lavonte David, and FS Tashaun Gipson.

4. Dallas Cowboys (rkjones217) - After squeaking in this playoff by a half game lead over the Eagles. Once again the NFC East produces a 8-8 team. Nonetheless you have to admire the Boys ability to fight and scrap their way into the playoffs despite Tony Romo's retirement. It's been an up and down battle for the Cowboys and will ahve a lot of doubters to keep their bulletin board material a plenty. Watch as America's team attempts to do the impossible, and win it all from 8-8. Players to Watch: WR Dez Bryant, HB Demetric Phillip, and TE Gavin Escobar.MLB Rolando Mcclain, ROLB Sean Lee, and DE Greg Hardy.

5. St. Louis Rams (NightHawkTH32) - This was their conference to lose and they let it slip away from them after having some QB issues early on. Since then the Rams have righted their course and found their way into a playoff birth. The last two seasons have ended in playoff heartbreak for St. Louis. They lost to the Bucs by one yard, maybe even an inch,. They have an up hill battle to climb if they plan to bring the Lombardi home. Players to Watch: WR Doug Baldwin, HB Todd Gurley, and QB Brady Washington. MLB James Laurenitis, RE Robert Quinn, and DT Aaron McDonald.

6. Atlanta Falcons (Studley021) - This is a young team that everyone should be afraid of. They boast the league's #1 Defense and have shown up to play in almost every game. If the dirty birds want to finally bring some hardware back to the A they will need to limit mistakes and run the ball effectively. Their young QB cannot afford to turn the ball over and tire out that vaunted defense. Players to Watch: WR Julio Jones, RB Tevin Coleman, and QB Teddy Brewster. DE Vic Beasley Jr., CB Desmond Trufant, and FS Kaiwi Riley
