SUPERBOWL: Washington v. Denver
RGIII outdoes Doug Williams, tosses 4 TD’s & Runs for 2 more in a single quarter as P. Manning implodes and Skins Romp in the highest scoring SB ever: 71 - 35

I don't know if you would consider them 'Surprises' but I think the Rams and Cardinals will get playoff berths in the NFC and the Bengals and Chiefs will get them in the AFC. I think Baltimore will be better than they were last year.

I think JJ Watt Re-peats at DPOY (If I couldn't pick him, I'd go with Cameron Wake)

I OPOY will be Manning.

Comeback player of the year (if you really consider it a comeback) is RG3.

I think the Skins go 12-4 with a healthy RG3 playing all 16 games, 11-5 with him playing 15-12 games. 9-7 with him 11-10 games.

In my previous predictions I had the Pats going 6-10. I now have them going 5-1 in the AFC East, but just 2-8 outside their division. I think they have a tough schedule with an a lot of new faces.

lol of course NCSkins is gonna drop the coaches fired prediction...classic

Several of us have predicted 12-4 for the Skins. How things have changed. It used to be that only aceinthehouse would make such a prediction.

So you think the Rams and Cards will outplay San Fran and Seattle?

Pass me the Dutchie nowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They would only have to outplay one of them, which would most likely be Seattle. Remember the Rams only lost one division game last year, and the Cardinals started 4-0 which included wins over Seattle and New England. Both of them probably won't make just because that division might beat itself up (like the NFC east the past couple of years) but it isn't that far fetched to think both teams will do well.

I also forgot Jeff Fisher is god to some on this board.

Jeff Fisher is a just good enough coach. Just good enough to keep his job but never good enough to win the games that matter most.
