Latest Simulation: Green Bay Rises

The Green Bay Packers narrowly passed the Pittsburgh Steelers in a 20 season simulation using the latest league files. The Packers won 231 games over 20 seasons, the Steelers 228. The next closest team in the NFC was Dallas with 202 victories. This puts Green Bay and Pittsburgh on a collision course for the NFC Championship.
The Carolina Panthers are still the dominant team in the league and will easily defeat all comers, from the first game to the Super Bowl. They won 293 games, 16% more than the next closest team, San Diego, who won 251 games.
So, at this point, although Pittsburgh's road to another Super Bowl loss is jeopardized by Green Bay, the Tri-peat of Carolina is in the bag.
There was no shuffling in the division orders except for Green Bay and Minnesota. Here's how they break down:
NFC East
Pittsburgh (11-5)
Dallas (10-6)
NY Giants (9-7)
Washington (8-8)
Philadelphia (8-8)
Cleveland (4-12)
NFC Center
Green Bay (12-4)
Minnesota (10-6)
Baltimore (8-8)
Detroit (7-9)
San Francisco (4-12)
Chicago (2-14)
AFC East
Carolina (15-1)
Boston (11-5)
Atlanta (8-8)
Miami (7-9)
Buffalo (5-11)
NY Jets (1-15)
AFC Central
San Diego (13-3)
Denver (12-4)
Cincinnati (10-6)
Oakland (10-6)
Houston (5-11)
Kansas City (3-13)

My money is on Boston taking over the conference this year with Denver's high octane offense ready to steam roll everyone while Warner tries one last time for a Super Bowl victory before he retires. Carolina and San Diego will battle all season long to keep up and not give the young upstarts the perch that they have shared atop the conference the last couple years...watch out for Cincy...they are very healthy this year and the "D" can hold their own as Carsons Crew racks up points as well.

1. Boston 2. Denver 3. Carolina
4. San Diego 5. Cincy

Colossus is not amused at your weak human brain attemping to forecast a playoff picture. However, but sheer randomness from your CPU, you have guessed the correct teams but the order is incorrect.

The mighty Panthers will crush your puny Patriots by an average of 12.5 pts. San Diego would embarrass you in your house by a touchdown, Denver by the same.

When that blob of organic molecules you call a commishioner comes up with a schedule, I will be able to more accurately predict your destruction.
