For AFC division winners I'll take New England, Cincinnati, Denver and Colts with Oakland and Pittsburgh as the wildcards. For NFC I'll go with Dallas, Seattle, Carolina and Green Bay with Minnesota and Arizona as the wildcards.

For the conference title games I'll go with New England vs. Pittsburgh (New England wins) and Green Bay vs. Carolina (Green Bay wins). For the Superbowl it will be a low scoring affair (in comparison to the regular season) and I'm going with New England eeking out a victory with less than 4 points separating the 2 teams.

I figure Rodgers will be MVP for the season and Brady will be MVP for the Superbowl and Del Rio as COTY. I figure JJ wins Defensive Player of the year and the offensive Player of the year will be Andrew Luck or someone who is good offensively but had a rough last year, I don't expect it to be anyone on the immediate radar.

I've been getting back into the NFL over the last year or so, I assume that Buffalo Bills have little chance of breaking the curse and getting back into the Play-Offs?

I have a soft spot as well for the Bengals due to being a 'Flyin Brian' fan from the early 90's.
