Over the past 10-days or so, the Phinsider Community has predicted the 2012 NFL Playoffs. We started by looking at the AFC and NFC playoff teams from last year. Then, using the average 50% turnover from year to year that seems to have become standard for the NFL postseason, we eliminated the six teams, three per conference, that made the tournament last year.

Last month, after the 2012 NFL schedule was announced, point spreads were released for the games in Week 1.

As the Jacksonville Jaguars finish up a session of OTAs and get short break before another session of OTAs, we can get a miniature glimpse of what the team will be doing, offensively and defensively.
