Fallouts

[ak47jared]

Which who reached the conference championship is most likely to not make the playoffs?
(Saints,Vikings,Colts,Jets)

I got to go Vikings the age might catch to them.

Re: Fallouts

None of the above.

Unless the Saints get hit by the Madden curse, Favre doesn't return, Peyton tears his ACL or the Jets can't mesh together and they turn into the '06 Bengals with all the off-field incidents.

I'm not saying it's gonna happened: I m talking about likely hood.

I'd have to go with the Vikings as well and I think the X factor is Favre. If he plays great like last season, you'll see them back in the playoffs. If Favre gets hurt or just has a bad season, there's a good chance that they won't be in the playoffs.

Re: Fallouts

Of these 4, most likely not to make it i'd put them in this order from bad to good:

- Vikings
- Jets
- Saints
- Colts

Colts would be the only surprise of the bunch to not make it, Vikings have a funky QB situation that will determine if they're competitive, Jets are a pretty good team that's only getting better, and the Saints are a decent team but Super Bowl Slumps are common.

Colts are expected to be in the playoffs every year, it's just something people are used to. The other 3 not so much.

Re: Fallouts

My only guess would be the Jets merely because they have much tougher competition in their own division and could simply be bumped out by standings or not winning a division crown.

I argee with every word of it.

It's a good point but jets are far superior team at this point considering the patriots offseason compared to theirs.

Re: Fallouts

Hehe!!! If the Panthers and Falcons has anything to say about it. The saints will not even make it back to the playoffs this year. I'm betting on the saints having the SB hangover. I believe the saints team will struggle this year like past SB teams have.

Re: Fallouts

Vikings aren't really that old outside of Favre and Fat Pat. That being said, to answer the question I'd say the Jets and Vikings.

The panthers and falcons are very unlikely knock off saints. Saints beat both those teams terribly in player by player comparison.

The Panthers definitely have no chance against the Saints. I think the Falcons do though.

I also disagree with the people that think the Saints won't make the playoffs. They're the defending SB champs (obviously) and their only loss in the offseason was Scott Fujita.

Not saying it isn't possible but barring any huge injuries, I highly doubt they fall off that much.

All true, I think the falcons are in transition and don't give them much of a chance.

Re: Fallouts

I would go:

Saints( madden curse lol, and it seems like every year a different team wins that division )

Jets( marshall has been added making miami fairly solid on offence, new england didnt have a great off season, however they added 7 time pro bowler torry holt to play the other side of moss, resigned possibly the best dt in the game, already good, and the jets always fail, just the way its been and will always be )

Vikings( Age for sure. I dont think its all about favre though, because the recievers are much better imo then when they were with just tavaras, favre really helped them. )

Colts( Unless peyten gets hurt they can have the worst d and running game but will still make it )

Well I disagree here, the saints had to come back to beat both teams, and one of those games matt ryan wasnt even playing.
