What makes you say that? Gut instinct?

I think Houston are the most balanced team, however the playoffs are all about getting hot at the right time.
Both the Pats and the Broncos are rounding nicely into form and it wouldn't surprise me if that was the AFCCG. However if the Ravens ever decide to ride Ray Rice then they have a great shot too, and you never know what getting Roethlisberger back could do to the Steelers.
If I had to go on my gut instinct right now I would say the Broncos. The Pats live and die with Brady and if the offense had another day like it did against Miami then I don't see the defense making enough stops

Thank you... yeah I am told that he's the greatest QB ever at this stage of his career.
The AFC playoffs excite me.... I just hope all the teams can keep their QB's healthy..... nobody wants to see TJ Yates running a playoff show.

A better JJ Watt, a healthy Schaub, I have to put my money there especially with the injuries on the Ravens D ( although it does look as if theyre progressing ). I love Denver this year but I honestly cant get on board with them over the likes of Houston's homefield.

Houston are acually one of the teams where homefield advantage isn't a massive difference. They actually have a better record away (unbeaten this year). The Ravens and Pats would benefit the most from homefield advantage throughout IMO

I picked Houston to win it all in July, but really think Denver has the edge right now. Broncos my pick.

Hard for me to count out Manning the way his looking right now, but even 100% healthy Manning was never a big time playoff player. This Denver team is way ahead most of his late Colts teams, but I'll believe it when I see it. He is getting stronger each week.
Houston has the best team but the best team doesn't always in the playoffs. Brady is Brady so the Pats are always there. Luck and the Colts are just too young and not as talented. I could see them win one though.
The Ravens aren't completely dead, but they need to win games down the stretch to get some home playoff games and to get in a rhythm. Despite our inconsistencies, we generally are pretty tough in the playoffs and come to play. Flacco has made plays in clutch situations actually.

Steelers took a big step backwards today, wow. Maybe trade Norv Turner for Tomlin?
Ravens also the tough blown game vs Kirk Cousins.
Bengals? They didn't take advantage either.
Break out the Browns... they gained a game on everyone in that division.

This smackdown should shake things up a bit..... 11 who had Houston.

Same here. Houston was my preseason pick, but now I think it'll be Denver.
