I do agree with a couple of JMT's opinions. The AFC North is on the down swing. All those years of beating each other up has caught up to them. The Steelers still have enough to take the division and potentially make playoff noise, but at this point Big Ben isn't what he used to be. Bell and Brown help him though and so long as they are healthy, they have a shot against most teams. Baltimore will likely see my guy Lamar Jackson start some games by seasons end and I can't wait to see Flacco eat shit after talking shit all off-season about how he is the starter. Cleveland added pieces, but Hue Jackson is a human turd and couldn't coach high school JV. The Bengals are eternally midcard level with Lewis at the helm.
I also think Kyle Shanahan is legit. They went undefeated on an easy schedule and while Jimmy G looked good despite limited weapons, people are on his dick hard. I mean 90th best player in the NFL? Not yet. I still think they are a year or two away, but Seattle is going to regress and Arizona has holes so they could take second in the division.
Atlanta has too much talent to go 8-8 though. I like Calvin Ridley, maybe not the biggest position of need for Atlanta, but I think he only makes that offense better and they will rebound a bit. I think the NFC South is the most stacked division. New Orleans, Atlanta, and Carolina all have ten win potential, though Tampa is a hot mess.
Anyway, here is what I got.

I'm really high on the Chargers. They had a rough start last year due to injury, but they are (mostly) healthy this year and that defense is going to be scary. If Melvin Gordon can repeat, they have a nice offense as well. I think Philly is the most complete team in the league, but it is hard to repeat in the NFL and I think expectations get to them in the end.
