I’m ready for you @OldTakeExposed. We aren’t 25% into the 2022 NFL Season, but I can and will confidently pick all 14 playoff teams. Barring end of season injuries, here you go.
AFC East
Buffalo – Despite the loss to Miami and close win over Baltimore, they still appear to be the class of the AFC.
Miami – We’ll see how long Tua is in the league’s concussion protocol, but their next four games are against the Jets, Vikings, Steelers & Lions.
AFC North
Cincinnati – Only time will tell if they’ve righted the ship. Although, I still don’t trust Zac Taylor in a tight spot.
Baltimore – Lamar Jackson is good enough to drag the entire team into the post-season, because right now, the defense stinks.
AFC South
Jacksonville – The Jaguars are the surprise team of 2022. Amazing what a competent Head Coach can accomplish with all of the talent they’ve got.
AFC West
Kansas City – Patrick Mahomes & Travis Kelce – Enough said.
Chargers – Probably not Super Bowl contenders, as they are already banged up, but still good enough to make the playoffs.
NFC East
Philadelphia – Is Jalen Hurts the leading MVP candidate right now? He’s certainly off to a great start.
Dallas – Cooper Rush has filled in more than admirably for Dak Prescott. Will the Cowboys keep the same game plan when Dak comes back.
NFC North
Green Bay – Young receivers continue to improve. Will they be good enough in January to make a deep post-season run?
Minnesota – Even Kirk Cousins can’t screw this up. Wait…of course he can, but won’t.
NFC South
Tampa Bay – Someone has to win the division. I think.
NFC West
San Francisco – The 49ers exposed the Rams on Monday night. Would be surprised if San Francisco doesn’t win the division.
Arizona – It hasn’t been pretty by any means…so maybe this year the Cardinals will be in reverse? Start slow, finish strong.
