This might be the first time I bet a future on a team other than the Vikings. I'll bet the Vikings too, but that Giants number is crazy. Odds of the Giants taking it is 3X longer than the Cowboys?

Patriots won 4 games year before their Super Bowl appearance. Seattle beat only one team with a winning record the year before they won it all. Next year's winner will likely be a similar team.

My prediction is the NFCC game is going to be Seattle vs the best team out of the NFCN.
