It's less than two months away to The Super Bowl.The climactic event of American football's National Football League, is by far the most important football game in the world and arguably the United States.
The Titans began the season with a perfect 10-0 record before
getting clobbered 34-10 at home by the New York Jets. They have bounced
back to win their last two games for an impressive 12-1 mark, good for
a two-game lead over the Pittsburgh Steelers in the AFC.
In
each conference, four division winners qualify for the playoffs along
with the two teams with the next-best records. If it ended now, the
Giants, Panthers, Arizona Cardinals, and Minnesota Vikings would hail
as NFC division winners. The Giants and Cardinals have already clinched
their respective division crowns. The Tampa Bay Bucs and Dallas Cowboys
would qualify as the two wild card teams. In the AFC, the Titans,
Steelers, Jets, and Denver Broncos would be crowned division champions
if the playoffs started today. The Baltimore Ravens and Indianapolis
Colts would earn the last two positions.
Securing one of the
two best records in each conference is critical, as the teams who
accomplish that task earn first-round byes in the playoffs. The other
four-playoff teams in each conference must play an opening-round game
in the postseason in order to reach the conference semifinals, where
the top two seeds will be waiting. As a result, the Giants and Panthers
currently have the best chance to reach Super Bowl 43 out of the NFC,
while the Titans and Steelers are looking good in the AFC.
The
Giants are seeking their second Super Bowl trophy in a row. Last season
they stunned the New England Patriots, who were undefeated at 18-0
heading into the final game. This year, New England is 8-5 and in a
struggle for its division title along with the Jets and Miami Dolphins.
Missing the playoffs would deny New England a chance to win its fourth
Super Bow in the last nine years. Tennessee has never won the NFL's
biggest prize, but the Titans last reached the Super Bowl in 2000, when
they fell to the St. Louis Rams.
Three weeks remain in the NFL
regular season as the 32 teams continue to battle for playoff
positioning. When the season ends in late December, the playoffs will
kick off with the first weekend in January and at that point the road
to Super Bowl 43 will truly begin.
