The Falcons have a lot of pieces and are pretty healthy. They have to get in - 10 wins is no guarantee.I don't like it, but I find myself thinking Falcons. The Superbowl fiasco messed with them for a while, but they seem to be pulling themselves together just in time to make the playoffs. They're still a very talented team.
Minnesota is inside, so that won't be an issue against them. With Philly you may have a point, but the Saints did beat them in Philly in the playoffs in 2013. And the QB for Philly in that game? Nick Foles.I don't like the Saints going into a cold weather venue like Minnesota or Philly. I'm not sold on Kenum and Foles though even though they both have good defenses. There's something about Atlanta that would worry me if I were other teams in the NFC.
It seems to me that the NFC has no fear team this year. Philly and Minny are not as convincing as their records, and Seattle and Green Bay seem to be less than in recent years. Maybe Atlanta because of the revenge factor--and Jones, of course.
I think the poll question would be a good one even with Wentz healthy. It's a hard nut to crack.
Foles is capable as long as they have home field and their defense plays well, they should still be the team to beat in the AFC

A lot of dome/warm weather teams will be in the NFC, which bodes well for teams like the Saints and Falcons
I think Minnesota's a real threat with a real QB back there. I think the fact that they win (or come close) with Keenum is a testament to just how good they are on both sides of the ball.
Zimmer's in a tough spot as to what to do at QB, but I think he's got an opening now after the loss to say 'enough's enough'.
Hopefully he doesn't and rolls with Keenum.
