I think the Bengals take a AFC championship trip to Denver. I will not be surprised if the Bengals win 11+ games and get a bye week to,
1. Broncos 2. Bengals 3. Patriots 4. Texans 5.Dolphins 6. Steelers Patriots over Steelers Texans over Dolphins Broncos over texans Bengals over Patriots 1.Packers 2.Seahawks 3.Saints 4. Giants 5. 49ers 6.Falcons Packers might win most games only because there division looks rather down imo.
I think the Giants will get into the playoffs one way or another, coughlin and eli have responded well when they had pressure and now with the superbowl in NY, there is pressure for them to get there or at least make the playoffs.
The Giants have reached the playoffs only once in the last 4 years. And that year they were fortunate to reach it with 9-7 record. I think if they do get in this year, it would be by winning that shite division at 9-7 again. The Eagles are rebuilding, i think the Skins take a slight step back as RGIII both recovers and goes through sophomore outing. Who knows with the Cowboys. They could be mediocre or they could challenge for that division. They were stupid to can Rob Ryan tho..
Because Rob Ryan is such a good DC.... IMO the Skins walk away with that division by a few games. The Giants could give them a challenge, but RG3 is unhuman.
I really don't think the Pats or Skins will make the SB, but that's just how this played out. Like I said on the first page, I really don't have any team I'm confident in this year to go all the way, so it should be interesting. In the AFC, Denver is too obvious, and I feel like NE could surprise people. They've gotten a lot of flack, but they're still the monster we all fear. I think GB could do damage, or the Saints as well, but ultimately the bad D will let them down I worry/feel.
Just curious - what makes you think the Niners wont be as good next year? I think it will be the Niners vs Houston.
Personally, I think the Niners will take the division, but as defenses adjust to Kaepernick, I think he will go through some rough patches, similar to Wilson in Seattle. Same thing with RGIII, IF he can keep his knees healthy. That's a big IF of course. If someone could guarantee me RG3 stays healthy I put skins in playoffs over Cowboys. The Giants haven't really done all that much to indicate they are better. The only thing people go on is that they have made unexpected runs to the playoffs in the past. They are essentially the same team, so who really knows.
Well it's more of a hunch, rather than statistics, however: Losing Crabtree will be huge. I keep hearing that most of his success was involved with him. They lost Goldson, and yes they drafted Reid, but my point is they didn't really get better thru the off-season. Plenty other teams did. Plenty other teams will have many players returning this year healthy. San Fran has been very fortunate the past 2 years to suffer basically no injuries. I can see Gore breaking down any second, and Davis is inconsistent, plus without Walker now. I'm not saying they will collapse by any means, but I don't see them being the SB favorite world beaters everybody is on their jock claiming. RG3 reminds me of Adrian Peterson. He just seems like the can do no wrong type of guy/player. Reports have been he's ahead of schedule, and will be fine for week 1. Plus, he doesn't have to rely on his running ability. He possesses all the tools as a passing QB. I feel like Washington will be just fine.
Pats take the East. Ravens take the North Broncos take the West. Texans take the South. Charges and Steelers grab the WC spots. Giants take the East. Falcons the South. 49ers the West. Packers the North. Bears and Seahawks take the WC spots. The NFC East is the toughest to judge this early. I also think the Colts miss the playoffs this year
I think Seattles just better than the Niners. Down the stretch the Seahawks played better, they blew out the Niners etc. Seattle has the better QB and will have a better offense imo. I think Seattle win 12 games or so, Niners will win a bunch to.
AFC East: Patriots AFC North: Steelers AFC South: Texans AFC West: Broncos Wild Card: Colts, Bengals (Just like last season) NFC East: Giants NFC North: Packers NFC South: Saints NFC West: Seahawks Wild Card: 49ers, Redskins (Falcons miss Playoffs after being #1 seed in 2012) Super Bowl: Broncos over Seahawks
AFC: 1 Houston 2 Denver 3 New England 4 Baltimore 5 Cincinnati 6 San Diego NFC 1 Seattle 2 Washington (DC) 3 Green Bay 4 Atlanta 5 St. Louis 6 San Francisco SB: Denver over St. Louis
did anyone expect sf to be in the super bowl at this time last year? ok probably lots of people did, but they didn't do it with the guy that led them to that 13-3 record the year before. point is...you never know where you'll find someone with wilson/kaepernick ability to boost a team.
I totally agree with Satire?, who thinks that nobody understands that he has more than one account on this forum. I mean, look at this tripe: I feel like I just spent half an hour listening to Herman Dipshit Edwards on ESuckPeeN. Many teams pop out of nowhere and stake their claim during an NFL season, maybe because of injuries to key players on "expected" contenders, maybe because teams find that groove and excel. Predictions this early are stupid. Predictions based purely on the events of the previous season are idiotic.
