All-Around NFL Predictions (2008)

[Dino 6 Rings]

I also think the Saints win the NFC South.

So my NFC would be
Dallas
Minnesota
Seattle (bye default)
New Orleans
Wild Cards are Greenbay and Carolina.

AFC
Pittsburgh
Indy
New England (Bye default)
Denver
Wild Cards being Chargers and heck, why not, Baltimore.

anyway....vikings have some work to do before reaching the playoffs

just bored is all, and i didnt think these over enough, i understand why people are correcting me , i just wanted feedback, and minnesota has caught my eye, they got jared allen, tavaris jackson will develop a little more, and remember they still got adrian peterson and their defense is in a different league with the rest of the NFC North, they have as good a defense as us. If Tavaris jackson can step it up, they could be SB contenders

That would be a dream come true for me, ESPN would be hyping up the Cowboys, Cris Collinsworth would probably pick us to lose by like 50, the battle to 6, and we win, that would be awesome

I couldn't imagine the loss of sleep I'd have for that kind of season. But seriously, we'd be like the Giants of last year...

Here's my predictions: (it's late, so I'll just do end-season standings...) (playoff teams in bold)

AFC

EAST
1. Cheaters* (easy division, though I don't think they'll go unscathed this year)
2. Buffalo (aside from the the hit-n-run spectacle, they've been putting it all together)
3. New York Jets (they've been like the Browns... big signings of washed up big name players)
4. Miami (need I say more?)

NORTH
1. Pittsburgh (regardless of them being my team, with the state of the division it'd be hard not to win it)
2. Cincinatti(I think they'll bungle their way into second place, but no playoffs)
3. Cleveland (I'm feeling a classic Browns season. Maybe just shy of 8 wins though)
4. Baltimore (Flacco and an aged defense won't get very far this year)

SOUTH
1. Indianapolis(they're the best in and out in this division, I don't see that changing yet)
2. Jacksonville (they'll push hard for the division title, but will make a wildcard spot)
3. Houston (going against what I've read, I think they'll have a good year)
4. Tennessee (Vince won't be able to do it all himself this year, and they'll flop because of it)

WEST
1. San Diego(as much as I hate Philip Rivers, they have too much talent not to win the division)
2. Denver (in an otherwise poor division, they'll take second place and contend for a WC)
3. Kansas City (they're a team in rebuilding mode with too many question marks)
4. Oakland (when Al Davis finally rests in peace, they can think about the playoffs)

NFC

EAST
1. Dallas (maybe Romo can win a playoff game finally)
2. New York Giants (they'll have a tough time this year, but they'll come out ahead)
3. Washington(if Jason Campbell can step it up, this team could go places)
4. Philadelphia (McNabb is a huge question mark)

NORTH
1. Minnesota (their season hinges on if Tarvaris Jackson can emerge into a good passer)
2. Green Bay (Aaron Rodgers is better than people think, and they have a good defense)
3. Chicago (they had their year a blew it. I don't see them advancing anywhere)
4. Detriot (call me if they win 10 games)

SOUTH
1. New Orleans (they'll take the title, but not by much with a still-susceptible D)
2. Atlanta (Matt Ryan will do wonders for the franchise, but he'll need some time)
3. Tampa Bay (Gruden may be looking for another job before the year is out)
4. Carolina (it will take some serious glue to keep this team together for the duration of the season)

WEST
1. Seattle (now that Alexander is gone, they can focus on more on Hasselbeck and his passing)
2. Saint Louis (they'll find their talent and bounce back from a horrid year)
3. San Francisco (they've put together a nice defense, can Alex Smith lead the offense?)
4. Arizona (Matt Leinert should've taken up ballroom dancing for a career instead)

So how do you have the playoffs going to play out?

they have two or three superstars on their team but far too many weak spots on their roster... their defense looks to be pretty good this year with IMO top 5 DE Mario Williams and a rising Amobi Okoye and Top 5 MLB Demeco Ryans, HOWEVER their offense looks to sputter especially with a QB (Matt Schaub) who is being denied the ability to look any further downfield than 10 yards... and a reciever Andre Johnson who has hands that rival Ike Taylor's in terms of stoneness...

Denver wins the west over San Diego, and Baltimore takes a wild card over Jax?

Yep but I seriously don't know who I'd cheer for in the case, I was born in Indy, but I like Eli more than Peyton.
