I have been through the entire schedule and here are my predictions for the NFL season before a ball has been kicked off in anger...

 

AFC East

Patriots 11-5

Bills 10-6

Dolphins 8-8

Jets 6-10

 

AFC North

Ravens 13-3

Steelers 9-7

Bengals 8-8

Browns 2-14

 

AFC South

Colts 11-5

Texans 10-6

Jaguars 6-10

Titans 3-13

 

AFC West

Chargers 11-5

Broncos 11-5

Chiefs 9-7

Raiders 6-10

 

NFC East

Cowboys 11-5

Eagles 9-7

Giants 8-8

Redskins 2-14

 

NFC North

Packers 13-3

Vikings 10-6

Lions 6-10

Bears 6-10

 

NFC South

Falcons 9-7

Saints 8-8

Panthers 5-11

Buccaneers 4-12

 

NFC West

Seahawks 11-5

Rams 10-6

Cardinals 8-8

49ers 2-14

 

 

Play-off seeds: AFC - 1 Ravens; 2 Patriots; 3 Chargers; 4 Colts; 5 Broncos; 6 Bills*

Play-off seeds: NFC - 1 Packers; 2 Cowboys; 3 Seahawks; 4 Falcons; 5 Vikings; 6 Rams

 

*Courtesy of head to head win v Houston

 

 

Out of interest I have the Bills losing home and away to New England, at Miami, at Phili, at Kansas City and home to Dallas, but I can't stress looking at the schedule how big I think that Houston game is going to be.

Good take. My only exception to you is the "Angry Bird Cardinals" are going to be 11-5. These guys were 11-5 with four QB's. People are asleep on this team, and the Coach is the best after Belicheck, and the smart Harbaugh (Mike McCarthy as well).

 

These guys will push the Hawks this year. I also don't see the Lions 6-10. We'll see how they finish. Good coaching.

The Cardinals are an interesting team. My reasoning is that I see a real drop off on defense. I don't think their defensive talent is that stellar and I think they beat teams with scheme and Bowles' blitzes. I think they miss him more than most expect.

I pretty much agree. I think that Clev will wind up with the worst record as their poor drafts come home to roost.

I think that Wash will be bad but will have a little better record than you state now that they benched RG111.

Detroit will be better than .500.

Gunner:

 

Not a bad call. They significantly improved their offensive line, and I'm making a big assumption Palmer stays healthy this year. Last year everyone predicted their defense going backwards with losing Washington to suspension who is back,and Dansby. Look what they did.

 

You might be right though and I almost always like your opinions. I get what your saying and agree with 98% of everything else in terms of predictions.

Go Bills!!!

 

19-0 Baby

Well since this is one of many prediction threads I'll post this here.

 

This AM on Mike and Mike they did their predictions for division winners and WC.

 

Both had the Cheatriots winning the AFCE and both had Buffalo getting a WC. So, there is some love out there.

For what it's worth, the number of wins in your prediction do not equal the number of losses.

 

Two errors here... spotted and corrected. For some reason my spreadsheet had a bit of a fit over Denver and I was just literally copying when I wrote here - I had written Denver 10-4 which obviously was wrong. The Broncos rise to 11-5 - their win over the Bears for some reason hadn't registered.
