Playoff Power Rankings

Because I mean come on who doesn’t like a DJ Baller power ranking.

1. Seattle
2. LA Rams
3. Philadelphia Eagles
4. Buffalo Bills
5. New England Patriots
6. Houston Texans
7. Jacksonville Jaguars
8. Denver Broncos
9. San Francisco 49ers
10. Chicago Bears
11. Green Bay Packers
12. LA Chargers
13. Pittsburgh Steelers
14. Carolina Panthers

 

I can't put Seattle at the top with Darnold being turnover the machine. Chicago or Denver should be at the top. Steelers look about right. Although I might drop GB down below them. Panthers definitely last.

 

I would have the Broncos higher and the Texans lower. I’m dropping the Bills a few spots too. They have a weaker roster than usual, but still have Allen and Cook.

 

Denver should be no 1.

 

I’m just happy we’re a part of these playoff rankings.

 

F the NFC!

 

I’m not really worried about playing Houston at home on MNF. No disrespect. They just don’t seem like a difficult match up. Need to have a playoff atmosphere in Pittsburgh and Tomlin damn well better have his team prepared better. Especially the secondary!

 

I don’t disagree about Darnold but that team is damn good and won that tough West. That defense is for real going to be tough to beat them there.

I don’t like Chicago or Denver at all but we will see.

I could see GB below us Micah was a huge loss but if Love is healthy I think that’s the difference and they could beat Chicago rd 1.

 

I really don’t like Denver. I think Nix blows. If we can somehow win against Houston then go to Denver could we be in the AFC Chip??

 

Man I think they are the weakest 1 seed I can remember. Maybe I’m off though it wouldn’t be the first time.

 

Houston probably has the best overall D in the NFL. Our offense is going to struggle big time. A Rod will be under pressure and running will be hard.

 

Have you watched Green Bay the last few weeks they backed into the playoffs they should be at #13.

 

But Denver with that defense and having homefield advantage I like their chances in the AFC.

 

The Texans' defense is for real. They were good in their nine-game win streak over the likes of Herbert, Mahomes, Lawrence, and Allen.

Our defense has to be perfect against the Texans' offense, which isn't great, and there can be no coverage screw-ups, giving up easy TD's.

 

My list would be...

1. Seattle
2. LA Rams
3. Philadelphia
4. Buffalo
5. San Francisco
6. Chicago
7. Denver
8. New England
9. Jacksonville
10. Houston
11. LA. Chargers
12. Green Bay
13. Pittsburgh
14. Carolina

I am not sold on The Patriots or the Broncos. AFC is wide open. Buffalo is the team to beat IMO. I have the Steelers at 13, but they can play with any of these AFC teams.

 

Houston may have the best defense in the league. No weak spots on that defense.

 

It’s about matchups. Can our line handle their pass rush?

 

No team has scored 30 on them…

 

Nix isn’t a stud, but he’s good enough. Quality game manager and plays well when they need him. Their defense is good too. Don’t need him to put the team on his back… they have home field throughout, and are simply tough to beat at home. I get not liking them as much as the top teams in the NFC… but they’re better than 8th in the playoffs. To me they’re a similar team to the Texans, but have a better offense and home field. The Bills have a bottom 3-5 in the playoffs overall roster, but I can understand betting on Allen carrying them. I still think you have them overrated. Houston is very meh. They’re just a defense basically. Idk. AFC is pretty wide open. Anyone can win the conference imo.

 

yea GB might be lower than us I still like a healthy Love more though. They can definitely beat Chicago IMO

 

Really with Bo Nix? That passing offense sucks.

 

I don't think Nix is a great quarterback, but they have the #1 seed and Denver is a very tough place to play.

 

Yea if we have any breakdowns for large TDs we are in trouble. Need to play pretty flawless D and force CJ into mistakes.

 

Yea I think Buffalo is the team as well but they might get beat rd 1. Jacksonville is hot! Why did we not add Myers???? He might have been our missing piece.

 

Im very worried about their edge rushers against our tackles. Rodgers could take a beating.
