Which of these NFC teams currently not projected into the playoffs has the best chance to get into the playoffs?

I pick Atlanta -- mainly because of Vick, Dunn & its schedule.
Perhaps I'm just simple, but I still believe Michael Vick can be a game-changing player. He's just too dangerous for many teams to contain. I say, let him run. It helps to have a steady back like Warrick Dunn on the roster. Dunn's headed for his fifth season of 1,000 plus rushing yards.
Down the stretch Altanta plays a week schedule:
Dec 3 @Washington, (4-7);
Dec 10 @Tampa Bay, (3-8);
Dec 16 Dallas, (7-4);
Dec 24 Carolina, (6-5);
Dec 31 @Philadelphia, (5-6).
I think they have an excellent shot at winning three of those games, putting them at 8-8 on the season -- still a long shot but probably the best of the lot.

If "none" was an option, I'd choose that. As it is, I went with Atlanta.

I don't see the Falcons making the playoffs, unless they run the table. Our defensive backs can't guard anybody and our recievers couldn't catch a pass if it was put into their hands. If a team has an OK passing game they'll demolish the Falcons secondary. I'll say the Rams have the best chance of making the playoffs.
