Buffalo?
Chiefs?
Toothless Bengals?
 Dolphins? (not a believer)

Lamar is playing great
His record against the NFC is ridiculous
Their defense can pound the best of em...

 That was a mighty impressive win vs 49'ers and Purdy. 

Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

I watched them dominate Detroit early in the season in all phases of the game and felt they were the best team in the NFL. Detroit may not be great, but they are a very solid team.
Despite all the blabber about the Niners they went into their house and put it too them.
I think that will be the most likely Superbowl matchup with the same results.

Personal anecdote- I became a Vikings fan in 1998 when Moss hit the scene, like many people my age. I was just old enough to pick a team and have been a big fan ever since.
It's been a fun (sorta? lol) ride but looking back, if there was another team to root for the Ravens would have been a great choice. Minus the whole Ray Lewis murdering a guy thing, they've been very solid over the years without being annoying (Pats, now Chiefs).
Depending on who they'd matchup with in a potential SB this year, I can see myself rooting for them. Certainly over Detroit, Philly, or Dallas.

Unless they have injuries, I think they'll win it.

Adding Roquan Smith set their defense off.  

Even if SF wasn't missing starters, I don't think it would've mattered,

Getting curb stomped on National television might help San Fran. We'll see?

They do seem to be the best team in the NFL right now. Right now. But a Vikings-like string of injuries can derail any team. Also, if they end up playing the 49ers again, I doubt it's the same kind of game.

I know it's not a popular opinion, but Dallas could be a dangerous team and I think could beat the Ravens.

Nothing's gauranteed, all it takes is one bad week.  They nearly lost to the Rams at home.  I think I saw half a dozen penalties on that punt return td that won it for them.   

The Ravens haven't done squat in the playoffs the last few years with Lamar, and I like Lamar, he's my favorite player to watch but I would never crown any team in this league before they actually earn it, the talent gaps between teams are really a lot thinner than we imagine.

Only at home it seems, I didn’t realize the Super Bowl was in Dallas…  ;) B)

The Ravens lost to the Browns with PJ Walker at QB. They'd better stay focused on keeping the 1 seed and not letting Miami swipe it.

As for Baltimore vs SF, if they played 10 times healthy I think they split 5 apiece.

I'll have to see the dirt on the Chief's grave before I discount them completely. Same with Philly.

A Flacco led Browns team knocking off the Ravens in the playoffs would be an awesome "Revenge" story, wouldn't it?

After giving Deshaun Watson that fully guaranteed contract I can't root for the Browns.

 Chiefs are a shell of their former selves offensively, still managed a division title
Philly losing at HOME to the Cards? WTF!
