5-2 New England- not with Cassel at QB and a hodgepodge running game, and difficulty stopping a good running game
5-2 Pittsburgh- possibly, but need to be healthy
anybody in the South or West- nope

I think they're 4/5 to make the Super Bowl right now assuming they can stay reasonably healthy.
One dimensional offensive teams like the titans are highly susceptible. Bring a team like the Ravens into that stadium in the playoffs and anything can happen. If the Jags figure out their identity and go on a run, they could beat this team. Heck, i think the titans willl lose at least two in their own division and more likely three.

I agree about Pitt. They couldnt run against Pitt and pitt has a couple of guys that can make plays. NE is done.

Early in the season. If you gave me 5/4 for them NOT to make the superbowl, i would take it all day long. I would take even money. I really dont think this is the year.
