There was a Q/A with Wilbon in the WP Express this morning (the free version they pass out on the metro):

Who do you see in the playoffs in the NFC?
It's still difficult but here goes, in order of seeding: Seattle, Carolina, Giants and Bears as division winners. Tampa Bay and Minnesota are the wild cards. Sorry, don't dare ask me why I don't have the Redskins in there.

All in all, these are some pretty safe picks. I think taking Minnesota over a second NFC East team is a mistake, though - either the Skins or the Cowgirls are going.
On a side note, is anyone surprised Wilbon picked the Bears? Fine - it's a good pick this year, but he
always picks his hometown team.
