The Patriots have clinched the AFC East.

The Cowboys, Packers, Seahawks, Buccaneers,
Colts, Steelers and Chargers can clinch their
division titles this weekend.

The Giants have a two-game advantage on the
top NFC wild card and actually could clinch
a playoff spot if they beat the Eagles and the
other contenders lose.

Any -3- Cowboys wins in the next -4- games
will sew up home field advantage. The Packers
are unlikely to lose any of their remaining
games, but if they lose one, any -2- Cowboys
wins will sew up home field advantage.

Green Bay's remaining schedule:

Dec 9 Oakland 1:00pm
Dec 16 @St. Louis 1:00pm
Dec 23 @Chicago 1:00pm
Dec 30 Detroit 1:00pm

I don't know that I've ever seen a season where the playoff picture
looked so clear at this point. You can pretty much pencil in the
eight division winners, and Jacksonville and probably Cleveland in the
AFC Wild Card race and the Giants and probably Minnesota in the NFC
Wild Card race.

We could possibly be headed toward the most anticipated Super Bowl
matchup of them all if New England should happen to go 16-0 and Dallas
goes 15-1, with their only loss of course to New England.

Good points. Of course, even if New England
slips, and goes 15-1, and Dallas went 15-1 (both
teams 17-1 by the time they would meet in the
Super Bowl), that would still go down as the
NFL Championship game with the -2- best rec-
ords *ever*.
