The Eagles continue to baffle me however

19, have looked increasingly competent each week.The real issue with the Chargers is their inconsistency. I didn't do too well in health class back in school, but I'm pretty sure that there aren't any more little LTs on the way to boost the Chargers' anemic rushing attack.(Seriously, though, congratulations Tomlinsons on the addition to your family.)The Chargers and Broncos are passing each other at a crossroads after opposite starts to the season and should be a lesson that it doesn't take long for everything you know about a season to come crashing down around you.It's probably fair to assume that the Broncos are cooked as far as the division goes, but their strong start to the season will at least give them a fighting chance at a wild-card berth.More on that well, um, now. AFC Wild CardThere are three teams sitting at 6-4 right now with two more at 5-5 and Houston at 5-4 all of whom have an outside shot at the two wild-card spots.The three 6-4 teams are the previously discussed Pittsburgh Steelers and Denver Broncos along with the Jacksonville Jaguars, who are 4-1 in their last five games.The Jaguars are perhaps the most interesting prospect here because they're not on many people's radars as a playoff team.Considering this is a team that was shutout by the Seahawks 41-0 not too long ago, that's not exactly surprising.The Jaguars are like the bizarro Steelers, winning four of their last five games by a combined score of 11 points. Considering those wins were over the Jets, Chiefs, Rams, and Bills, that's not a ringing endorsement of their playoff candidacy.Yet, the Jaguars have a winnable, albeit tough, game in San Francisco next Sunday followed by three straight at home against Indy, Miami, and Houston. They're a coolly efficient team that can rely on a strong running game, a halfway decent defensive line, and an occasionally superb performance from David Garrard.I'm not predicting they're going to run the table, and they could very well lose all their remaining home games, but the only game Jacksonville has lost in Jacksonville all season was against the Cardinals in the second week, and none of their next four opponents have looked exactly dominant lately. The 5-5 teams are also an intriguing group. Miami is back to .500 and still a tough out with their varied attacking options, though with Ronnie Brown, Chad Pennington, and Will Allen all on IR now, you have to wonder if the injuries are just too much for this season to amount to much.Baltimore is also at 5-5, as discussed above, and obviously their wild-card potential relies on how the division shakes out. I won't hazard a guess, but I'd look out for Denver down the stretch. NFC EastThe NFC East is about as close as it gets right now, unless you're a Redskins fan. The Redskins are officially in "spoiler" mode now with games against each of their division rivals, New Orleans, and San Diego still to go.They could go and ruin just about everyone else in the division's playoff hopes, end the Saints' perfect season, and hand the AFC West to Denver (if the Broncos keep it close) with a Week 17 matchup against the Chargers.For an encore they could go knock over some little kids' sandcastles, star in an Eastern Motors commercial explaining how there's no Santa Claus, and then call your sister fat.Needless to say, I think this is why Dan Snyder was put on this earth.Overall, I just don't know which way this division is going to swing, to be honest. They're all good teams when they play at their best, but there's just no telling which team will show up each Sunday.The Eagles continue to baffle me, however.

They consistently look like a team incapable of generating any sort of momentum.They get big stops then they give the ball back.They get a quick-strike touchdown from DeSean Jackson and then their defense suddenly can't stop anybody.Scientists will study game tapes of the 2009 Eagles because the laws of momentum simply do not apply to them.Again, they were lucky Jay Cutler was doing his best Rex Grossman impression because he missed three sure touchdown passes that would've put the Eagles to bed long before they would have ever had a chance to win.This is also really the only division that's up for grabs in the NFC, barring some pretty epic collapses by the Cardinals, Saints, and Vikings, but the East has more than enough drama to make up for the other divisions.And, there's always the Wild Card. NFC Wild CardOne of the NFC East teams should manage three or four of their last six and take one of these spots, but the door remains open for the Packers (6-4) or Falcons (5-5) to grab that second spot.The Packers still get shots at Detroit, Arizona, Seattle, and Chicago so they have a somewhat easier route to the Wild Card than any of the NFC East teams who all have to play each other once more.The Falcons are my dark horse candidates to pull into the playoffs, though. They've had some tough injuries to overcome the last three weeks, but Matt Ryan looks more and more like he has a career in this whole tackle football thing, especially in his fourth-quarter touchdown drive against the Giants yesterday, twice converting long third downs.You can pin that on the Giants if you like, but I like Matt Ryan's ability to win close games.With two division games against Tampa Bay, a matchup against the Saints at home, and games against Philly, Buffalo, and the Jets left on the docket, the Falcons still have a shot at putting together four or five wins to close out the season and get into the postseason.Obviously, these are the toughest races to call because, with six games left and so many teams hovering around 6-4 and 5-5, there's still everything to play for.

Imagine being mad at first, then placing blame, then being mad again, then cursing everything in sight, and then finally accepting that you just were not good enough Imagine leaving the event, tears in your eyes.
