February 8, 20179 yr New England with Brady is the favorite every year. If they get home field in playoffs, they might as well not play them. A lot of parity in the NFC.
February 8, 20179 yr Which team is coached by Bill Belichick and quarterbacked by Tom Brady and which team replaced both the OC and DC?
February 9, 20179 yr The obvious answer is neither based upon history, but if picking between the two it is easily the Patriots.
February 9, 20179 yr I'd have to say the Pats. How Atlanta reacts to the way they lost will be very interesting. The loser of the SB usually struggles the next year and when you lose a game like that...wow... I don't know the free agent situation of each team...is either losing some really key players? Also, if Gronk comes back next year healthy (big if), he makes a big difference. He is the Pats Julio Jones...a matchup nightmare for the defense.

Also, if Gronk comes back next year healthy (big if), he makes a big difference. He is the Pats Julio Jones...a matchup nightmare for the defense. They can win without him, but he does make them even more difficult to defend. However, BB will let him go if he wants more than they think he is worth. The only non-tradable there is TB. Again, with Brady they will always contend even with 80% arm strength he had this year. There just isn't anything going to fool him over any extended period of time.
February 22, 20179 yr Vegas has already made New England the favorite for next year. Don't know why they wouldn't, I'm sure plenty of the team will be back along with a healthy Gronk. I'd consider them the favorite.
February 22, 20179 yr I could see Atlanta missing the playoffs altogether next season. Tough to come back from a triple gut-punch like that. Matt Ryan may be destined for Carson Palmer status now.
