NFL Week 1 - Tyche is laughed at, Miz still doesn't post, and Rhinox gets banned

[Chun Liroy]

Giants finishing 3rd in division. BOOK IT.

[Judai]

AFC East: New England Patriots
AFC North: Baltimore Ravens
AFC South: Houston Texans
AFC West: San Diego Chargers

Wild Cards: Kansas City and New York Jets

Houston finally breaks through and wins the division, leaving the Colts outside the playoffs for the first time since 2001. Bold Prediction: Big Ben doesn't rape anyone this year.


NFC East: Philadelphia
NFC North: Green Bay
NFC South: Atlanta
NFC West: St. Louis

Wild Cards: Tampa Bay and New Orleans

I'm not sure about 3 teams from the South but we'll see. I like Detroit but Stafford seems to be made from glass and unless he plays the entire season they won't make the playoffs. I think Washington and Dallas also have the potential to make the playoffs but there are plenty of IFs on those two teams.

Worst Team: Cincinnati Bengals
Coach of the Year: Jim Schwartz, Detroit Lions
Comeback POY: Matthew Stafford, Detroit Lions
Defensive ROY: Ryan Kerrigan, Washington Redskins
Offensive ROY: Lance Kendricks, St. Louis
Defensive POY: Ed Reed, Baltimore Ravens
Offensive POY: Michael Vick, Philadelphia Eagles
MVP: Michael Vick, Philadelphia Eagles

AFC Championship: Baltimore Ravens vs San Diego Chargers
NFC Championship: Philadelphia Eagles vs Green Bay Packers

Super Bowl: Baltimore Ravens vs Philadelphia Eagles
Baltimore Ravens Win.

IN HODDIE WE TRUST!

Wait, we had other te's?

[Demosthenes11]

everyone figured the 3rd TE spot was a battle between will yeatman and lee smith, but they waived both o.O

[Deejay]

who gives a fuck about your third TE spot o.O

[Blackice]

Cowboys fan checking in, let the jokes begin. Realtalk, I expect them to smash the Jets but I don't expect them to win the Superbowl.

Danny Woodhead will be the 3rd te slot

Lol? Giants are going to be terrible. Wait, make that turrible.

but they have that Manning guy..... he is just as good.......

he is nearly that good as.........

well he is a manning, so its ok!

[Demosthenes11]

who gives a fuck about your third TE spot o.O

it normally wouldn't be noteworthy at all, but the patriots ran a fuckton of 3 TE sets last year

[Chun Liroy]

Cowboys have no FB to miss a block and cause a season ending injury to the starter QB O-O

[Headspace]

I know, so many people picking the Jets.

AFC East: New York Jets
AFC North: Baltimore Ravens
AFC South: Houston Texans
AFC West: San Diego Chargers
WC: New England, Indianapolis

The Colts are going to get off to a slow start; just enough to keep them from winning the divison, but not a Wild Card berth.


NFC East: Philadelphia Eagles
NFC North: Detroit Lions
NFC South: Atlanta Falcons
NFC West: St. Louis Rams
WC: Green Bay, New Orleans

I think you may see the greatest "zeroes to heroes" story in NFL history this year with Detroit, if all goes well (and healthy)

I also think Green Bay will take a step back. I believe their playoff performance was a combination of unexpectedly good performance from relatively unknown players and to a lesser extent, matchups.
If you look at their regular season, not so stellar. I don't think it'll be stellar this year, either.

AFCC: Chargers vs Colts
NFCC: Atlanta vs Philadelphia

SB: Eagles defeat Chargers

I want to pick against the favorite, really. I just can't do it. I won't be surprised at all if this isn't even close to accurate.

THU, SEP 8

New Orleans at Green Bay

New Orleans is going to be better than last year, and I think Green Bay is going to be largely the same, maybe a little better. Needless to say, I think New Orleans is going to steamroll the regular season, and they'll do it by winning a close one against the Packers.

SUN, SEP 11

Atlanta at Chicago

The Bears look really bad this year. The Falcons are a sleeper Super Bowl team.

Cincinnati at Cleveland

Colt McCoy looks amazing. The Bengals need to move to the CFL.

Buffalo at Kansas City

I feel sorry for the Chiefs, they're sorely underrated this year. I'd like to see them take the Chargers out again and show it to the haters once again.

Philadelphia at St. Louis

I want to pick St. Louis here, but I don't think they have enough weapons to get past the Eagles amazing secondary.

Detroit at Tampa Bay

Detroit might have the most electric offense in the league this year. Up there in the top, for sure. Tampa has some things to address, mostly why they had such a terrible offseason.

Tennessee at Jacksonville

I really like (what a surprise) the Titans changes this year, and how they look. In a year. Or two. As in, not this year. I still think they're better than Jacksonville though, and should win without much problem.

Pittsburgh at Baltimore

I see Pittsburgh choking late into the season, but not yet. They look better than they did last year, and they went to the Super Bowl.

Indianapolis at Houston

Colts are completely fucked without Manning, and probably fucked for a couple weeks with him.

NY Giants at Washington

Don't sleep on the Redskins. I think they can win a lot of games if they get their QB situation settled. The Giants, not so good looking.

Seattle at San Francisco

Tavaris Jackson is apparently the set-in-stone starter here, even having been grossly out performed by Charlie Whitehurst (who I remind you they paid good money to set up as the future starter) in the pre-season.

San Francisco should be able to limp through this one.

Minnesota at San Diego

I see Percy Harvin breaking out as a star WR this year as long as he doesn't let it get to his head (pun intended) and McNabb doesn't shit up the field.

Not enough, though. Bob Sanders breaks someone's neck and then goes out for the season with a ruptured Gluteus Maximus.

Carolina at Arizona

Both of these teams are going to be way better than last year. Unfortunately, that's still pretty bad. Arizona, I guess takes this one.

Dallas at NY Jets

Dallas, not getting any press hype? Ridiculous.

I guess it's because they did absolutely nothing in the off-season.

MON, SEP 12

Patriots at Miami

The Patriots are crazy over-rated. Esteban85Johnsoncinco looks like a deer in the headlights in their offense, and they didn't put much else around Brady, who isn't getting any younger.

I still think they'll win 11 or 12 games though, this being one of them.


Oakland at Denver

Knowshon Moreno, break out RB. Book it.

Otherwise, two bad teams. I think the Raiders defense managed to get worse, if that's possible.
