I’m talking the wide end of your personal analysis range, which could be narrow (the extreme being PHI v KC) or very wide (something like PIT v ATL).

For me, I would have it at 5 teams in each Conference, in this order – that’s it:

PHI SF DAL DET/NO

KC CIN/BAL JAX BUF

So basically you could say based on current odds, that the longest shot SB Matchup I could possibly see occurring would be NO v BUF, although I definitely prefer JAX to BUF.

    AFC in order:

    1. Chiefs. (Clearly have the highest ceiling.)
    2. Bengals. (I believe in Burrow.)
    3. Ravens. (Very complete team. Ravens vs Bengals playoff game would be very interesting)
    4. Jaguars. (Lawrence is a good enough quarterback to win a Super Bowl and Allen is the most underrated pass rusher in the NFL.)
    5. Bills. (Have the pieces but Allen needs to take better care of the ball and himself.)
    6. Dolphins. (Show flashes but always seem to play like girls against good teams.)

    NFC in order:

    1. Eagles. (Clearly have the highest ceiling.)
    2. 49ers. (Great roster on both sides of the ball. The question is whether Purdy can get the job done in the playoffs.)
    3. Cowboys. (Micah Parsons is a beast and Lamb is underrated but I don’t trust Dak and the Cowboys struggle to finish against good teams.)
    4. Lions. (They’ve played well this season and the roster is good but it’s hard to fully believe in them because they’re the Lions.)
    5. Seahawks. (Have shown flashes but Geno hasn’t been the same as last year.)
    6. Saints. (Carr is up and down but the Saints have a great defense that forces a lot of turnovers.)

    My overall top 5:

    1. Chiefs.
    2. Eagles.
    3. Bengals.
    4. Ravens.
    5. Tomorrow’s Jaguars/49ers winner.

      That Bills team is lucky to not be 3-6 and have a very tough second half schedule. They have a very good chance of not making the playoffs at all.

    I wouldn’t hate a Jets v Lions SB. Obviously, Cowboys v Bills/Chiefs/Dolphins would be ideal.

    Lions vs Chiefs, the season begins and ends with these two teams facing each other, the NFL set this storyline up and I’m fucking here for it!

    Baltimore with a run game is dangerous. If their defense can be more consistent, I think it’s between them and the chiefs for the AFC.

    It pains me to say this as a giants fans, the eagles are the clear favorite for the nfc. San Francisco will contend but they’ve been way too hurt. I think Detroit will be very very fun and with a lot of luck can definitely make it. If there’s a team to replicate the 07 giants run of luck, it’s them.

    My Super Bowl prediction is ravens eagles personally, barring any major injuries to either team

    I think the Browns have a real shot at making it if most or all of the AFC North makes the playoffs.

    Which is kind of wild until you start thinking about it.

    I think it’s KC or BAL vs PHI

    ​

    I’d love a CIN or JAX vs DET Superbowl though

    ​

    Buffalo beating Dallas would be awesome too
