I personally just don't trust Dak Prescott in getting to the SB even though I know the Cowboys have a good team this year. He's a good QB, but he's been coddled by great OL and great running game his whole career that have hidden him from needing to carry a team, and I don't know if he can step up and win it in the playoffs based off his arm. I think in my mind he's basically Kirk Cousins, if Kirk Cousins had been drafted to a team with a HoF OL and great running game.
I guess it's still possible that we see Parsons pull a Von Miller and just put the team on his back while they run heavily on the run game, but I would put better odds on the NFC's representative being the Eagles.
I think there's the Eagles, Cowboys, Chiefs, Dolphins, and Bengals who are real SB contenders left.
Kirk Cousins is just Dak on a worse team, Jimmy G is simply bad in the playoffs and the 49ers this year aren't enough to carry him like they have in past playoffs, I don't trust the Bills when Josh Allen's elbow is balky and he's thrown 4 TD/5 INT with barely 60% completion and sub-7.0 YPA in the 4 games he's been injured, Lamar Jackson is terrible in the playoffs, and Ryan Tannehill is Ryan Tannehill.
I don't trust Dak either.
I think the Eagles have been incredibly fortunate with who and when they've played. I'm not saying they're paper tigers but i don't think they're legit 10-1 good. They're top 5 NFL good but not top 2.
Cousins, yup. Pretty meh in the playoffs. Jimmy G, yup. Bad in the playoffs.
I was joking about Dallas in the playoffs. I don't think they'll get there. If i had to pick someone from the NFC, i'd probably have to go 'niners.
