France are a league ahead on paper but I don't seem them winning both games in Dublin or London. Ireland have no nailed down starting #10. If Scotland get going, Italy keep kicking on and England don't start slow, then it could blow it wide open.
It's looking like the era of 3 wins (and whatever BP or winning margins) for a 6Nations title. With the fixtures and scheduling there should be minimum of 3 teams going for it on the last weekend. The tournament needs it.
