I'll be making my predictions after the pre season and if it's anything like the last few years a lot of players will get injured.

A lot of weaknesses there, replacing Faneca with a divII rookie, a good RB with a kid with fumble problems, a washed up Complainian and Joe McKnight who couldn't even handle one days rookie minicamp, Slausen is the worst guard I've ever seen play, Folk was rubbish in Dallas so NY in winter will be hilarious to see him try and kick in, Pace is good but Taylor is past it, the DL is old & injury prone. Sanchez will be a monumental bust.

Patriots fan perhaps??

Theres still alot of comings and goings to happen at all the teams yet, not to mention rookie contracts that havent been signed, I think I will wait to give my predictions aswell

My play-off predictions and without looking at schedules, the rough amount of wins they will get:

AFC East Winners: Miami (#4 seed: 9 wins)
AFC West Winners: San Diego (#3 seed: 10 wins)
AFC North Winners: Baltimore (#1 seed: 13 wins)
AFC South Winners: Indy (#2 seed: 11 wins)
AFC WILDCARD: New England (#5: 9 wins)
AFC WILDCARD: Houston (#6: 9 wins)

NFC East Winners: Philadelphia (#3 seed: 10 wins)
NFC West Winners: San Francisco (#4 seed: 8 wins)
NFC North Winners: Green Bay (#2 seed: tough schedule so between 11-13 wins)
NFC South Winners: New Orleans (#1 seed: 13 wins)
NFC WILDCARD: Minnesota (#5 seed: 10 wins)
NFC WILDCARD: Dallas (#6 seed: 9 wins)

Both of the final wildcard spots are difficult. I could see Oakland getting ahead of Houston and likewise Carolina getting ahead of Dallas.

Love your predictions.

Well the original offer I recieved for Mass was a good one. That's been withdrawn and the replacement offer is shabba. Soon as I figure out how to reject it I will.

I always predict series splits with the Vikes and Bears. If they get Brett back i think we'll split, without Favre i wouldn't back against us sweeping them.

We have a very tough schedule (AFC East and NFC East plus Atlanta and San Fran) but i honestly think we can get to between 11-13 wins. We have our O-line back together and the second half of the season we only lost twice IIRC to the Steelers and Cardinals. That brings me to the second point. We have our secondary back together whch was decimated by injuries. In both of those defeats we were ripped by 4 and 5 wide sets because we had no players. On the Steelers winning play Wallace was covered by Bell who we picked off the street that week. Normally he'd have been covered by Harris or Lee. Likewise against the Cardinals, Breaston had a good game who again would be covered by Harris or Lee.


I think the Vikes will slip up late if Favre comes back, he faltered down the stretch last year and he's getting on now. Likewise without him i don't think they win enough to win the division.

Fair assesment. I think Detroit may surprise a few. They have a much improved D and a home run hitter in Jahvid Best. The main problem they will face is not having another decent wideout which means teams can double CJ all day.
