Allen: New Orleans Saints. Just like in the AFC, Drew Brees and co. are going to benefit from the NFL’s new emphasis on illegal contact. Unless defensive-minded teams like the 49ers and Seahawks can find a way to avoid getting flagged, the Saints (though the Falcons could be a dark horse) are my favorite to rep the NFC in the Super Bowl.

Sanchez: Green Bay Packers. I picked Aaron Rodgers to win NFL MVP, and the Packers will be riding his arm all of the way to the Super Bowl. This time around, the Packers will not fall victim to a blown call when they step onto the field against the Seattle Seahawks. With Eddie Lacy pounding the rock, a strong defense and Aaron Rodgers picking apart defenses, the Packers could very well go all of the way.

Dyce: Saints. An offense that is always humming, with a defense that is unconventional but reportedly set to revolutionize the way defenses play is an intriguing mix. It is hard to pick against the Seattle Seahawks, who lost some players on the defensive line, but I think the Saints can make it to the Super Bowl.

Jorgensen: Seattle Seahawks. Defense still wins championships, and they still have the best of this generation. Plus, that Wilson guy running the offense with the Skittles man behind him isn’t too shabby either.

Hill: San Francisco 49ers. The only three seasons that Jim Harbaugh has coached the 49ers they’ve gone to the NFC title game and this year will be no different. Just like the Patriots almost topped the Broncos, the Niners came even closer to knocking off the Seahawks — which they’ll do this year.
