The only difference is that the Patriots are the Patriots and the Rams just suck.
I agree about the Saints, they haven't looked great a few weeks, but keep finding ways to win. I'm thinking an NFC Championship game loss for them. The Superdome will just be too crazy for that first game.
As far as MVP is concerned, it has to be Payton. With all the guys you named, the Colts can least afford to lose Manning. We saw that the Pats without Brady are a good team, GB doesn't look that good with Rodgers, the Steelers win with the D and the run (although they have been airing it out more recently). These are just the first few.
At the beginning it was Brees, but he's let it slip away in the last few weeks.
