5 in, 5 out

El Caliente said

Every year (for the most part) you have 5 new teams that make the playoffs (last year it was 3), so obviously you will also have 5 teams who won't make the playoffs who did play in them last year. My question to the board is, who are the 5 teams in, and who are the 5 teams out?

Out
Washington Redskins
Houston Texans
KC Chiefs
Denver Broncos
Cincy Bengals

In
New Orleans Saints
Miami Dolphins
Baltimore Ravens
Indianapolis Colts
Oakland/Las Vegas Raiders
