Well, first I'll eliminate teams I think that wont make the playoffs. The Vikings will most likely finish 8-8, the Falcons have dug themselves a hole and I think its too deep to get out of, the Eagles arent contenders without McNabb, and the Niners have their three toughest games on the road with 5 games left.
So I see the Rams, Panthers/Saints, and Giants battling for the NFC wildcards.
With the way the Giants are playing right now, I dont see them standing much of a chance with their tough schedule left. If they get back to playing Giant football and come out and beat Dallas next week, theyre right back in the mix. If they lose that game, count them out.
The Rams have been choking, but might have saved their season yesterday vs the Niners. I see them going 4-1 in their final 5 games and clinching a spot in the playoffs at 9-7.
I think Carolina will actually finish 10-6 as well as the Saints and end up winning the tie breaker over the Saints. Giving the Saints the other wild card.
As for Seattle, Shaun has to get back on the horse and get some yards to help Hassleback get into a groove. If Shaun and Hassleback are banged up like they have been all season, I wouldnt be suprise if they ended up forfeiting the NFC West to St.Louis or San Fran and missing out of the playoffs.

The Panthers & the Giants will get the wild card spots in the NFC.

I think the Panthers have it the "easiest" after that I just don't know, looks like we have a real shot at an 8-8 team making the playoffs this year. At that point I really don't care who it is.........

Here is how I see it.
Seattle wins division
Chicago wins division
Eagles or Dallas win division (Giants are just so banged up)
NO wins division
Wildcard:
Dallas or Eagles (non division winner)
Carolina or maybe Giants if they limp along

Nothing will change between Now and the end of the season, Its going to be Carolina and NY Giants.

Rams for sure. Either Vikings or 49ers for other.
They have the easiest schedules.
