Panthers might end up coming out of a really weak division this year as NFC South , but they'd be pretty lucky to get anywhere in January. I don't even know who the WCs will be, but I'm pretty sure that the 2nd or 3rd best team in the NFC West or East could take them.

Then again, once their in the 12 team tournament, Carolina has just as good a chance to come out of the crapshoot as the 8 other teams that play WC weekend do.

The Bears will be good again, but even if they win their division, a return trip to the SB is unlikely to say the least. Not that they aren't the most qualified team, but the field is really, really large.

I like St. Louis' defense this year to take the big leap foward (and thats the key to this pick). Couple that with an MVP season from Bulger, a great, consistent performance from Jackson, and the explosiveness of Holt, and you have my 2007 NFC Super Bowl pick.

Arizona is a darkhorse. Leinart will be everything for them that JC will be for us and more.
