The ESPN Playoff Machine is up and running

One of my favorite times of the year

Used that a few times earlier. 
 

Crazy that Cinci are still in solid shape to make them. The only games the aren’t going to be heavily favored in is Chargers & Steelers x2. 
 

On the other side, Minnesota after their crazy start could very well miss the playoffs (which I feel happens). Out of their remaining 8 games only one is an AFC opponent. 4 are divisional and that is still close even with Detroit standing @ 8-1. 
 

After running a few simulations, I’ve had four 13-4 teams twice; BALT/BUFF/KC/PITT  & KC/BALT/HOU/LAC

 

 

 

On the NFC, very good chance of Detroit have setbacks that Washington get the #1 seed. Very favorable schedule for them.

Maybe we get lucky, but no 3rd world team in the wild card this year

It's a whole lot different when you aren't one of the wild card scenarios

I get Cincy at 9-8 as the 7th seed playing at Buffalo in the wildcard. I might be too low on Denver in my picking games. I'm frankly amazed they have won as many as they have thus far. 

 

Interestingly in the NFC I ended up with San Fran missing out at 10-7.
