Re: Mid July Predictions:
AFC East:
1. Pats-They are going to be hell bent to avenge their SB loss
2. Bills-Better, but still not good
3. Jets-Constantly in flux at the skill positions
4. Dolphins-They still suck
AFC North:
1. Browns-They'll live up to the hype
2. Steelers-Close 2nd but will come up just short
3. Bengals-Offense rebounds, but defense is still pathetic
4. Ravens-'With the first pick in the 2009 NFL Draft, the Baltimore Ravens select...'
AFC South:
1. Jaguars-It all comes together this year for Del Rio's team
2. Colts-The window closes on the end of the Dungy era
3. Titans-Lack of offensive weapons hurts this team
4. Texans-Good team in a better division
AFC West:
1. Chargers-Best in a bad division
2. Chiefs-Croyle and Bowe make a stong connection for the next few years
3. Broncos-Is this the year Shannahan is finally held accountable?
4. Raiders-They are the Raiders, duh.
Wildcards:
Colts
Steelers
AFC Champs-Jacksonville over New England
NFC East:
1. Dallas-My fingers ache just from typing that
2. Washington-Zorn has a Payton, Tomlin-like first year
3. Philly-Could this be Reid's final season?
4. NYG-The magic of '07 is long gone
NFC North:
1. Minnesota-Not as good as advertised, but good enough
2. Green Bay-Rogers struggles in his first year as a starter
3. Chicago-Lack of a QB kills any playoff hopes
4. Detroit-New year, same Lions
NFC South
1. Saints-Finally healthy the Saints rebound
2. Buccaneers-One of the 72 QB on their roster starts more than 8 games
3. Panthers-Exit John Fox, Enter Bill Cowher
4. Falcons-Still the least talented roster in the NFL
NFC West:
1. Arizona-Ok, now THIS is the year they put it together (where have we heard that before?)
2. Seattle-Holmgren goes out with a wildcard berth
3. SF-Martz makes Alex Smith loosely resemble an NFL QB
4. St. Louis-Some good young pieces but Holt, Little, Bulger start looking old
Wildcards:
Washington, Seattle
NFC Champs
Dallas (ugh) over Washington (I just shed a tear)
Super Bowl-Jacksonville over Dallas
