As Thanksgiving nears and we direct our attention to the playoff picture more and more, it's time to separate the wheat from the chaff. On this episode of The Athletic Football Show, we aren't interested in teams that are merely playoff contenders. We want the true Super Bowl contenders. Robert Mays and David Helman of Fox Sports identify the teams that realistically have it in them to win the Super Bowl on this episode of TAFS.

A couple of NFC North teams picked up huge wins in overtime to highlight Week 10 Sunday. First, the Vikings proved that we all might need to take them a little more seriously with a 33-30 win over the Bills. Then, the Packers kept their fledgling playoff hopes alive by erasing a 14-point deficit to beat the Cowboys, 31-28. Robert Mays and Mitch Schwartz dig into both of those games on this episode of The Athletic Football Show.

The guys also discuss the relentless Dolphins offense, the prospects of the Buccaneers doing damage in the playoffs, the AFC West, and more.
