    I love it when this comes out each year. The only thing I don't get this year though, is the initial one they put out, has both Burgh and the Rats going 12-4, and shows Burgh with the first round bye. Can't happen, can it? Same record, goes head to head, correct?

    Anyway, here it is....

    Edit: Still links to last years predictor. can't find this years......

    Here is the ESPN version. The Yahoo one is basically the same, but it doesn't appear to allow the user to make changes to week 12.

    When I run though my view on how the games will go the rest of the season, I come up with the following seedings:

    AFC:
    1. New England 12-4
    2. Balt 12-4
    3. Houston 11-5
    4. Oakland 10-6
    5. Steelers 12-4
    6. Cinci 10-6

    NFC

    1. Green Bay 15-1
    2. San Fran 13-3
    3. New Orleans 13-3
    4. NY Giants 11-5
    5. Chicago 11-5
    6. Atlanta 11-5

    I have Baltimore winning at Cinci on the final Sunday to claim the division and the bye. If they lose, we get the #1 seed in my scenario. I have us losing in San Fran, but winning the rest of our games. No matter what I change for likely parameters, I pretty much always come up with us as the #5 seed playing at either Oakland or San Diego in the wild card round.

    Just curious but who do you have GB losing to? Or are you just figuring they will lose any 1 random game on the rest of the schedule? I actually think GB is going to join Miami as the only undefeated team in history. Unless, they meet the Steelers in the SB of course :hehehe:

    I have Green Bay losing at the Giants. I feel pretty good about that pick.
