Title: The official NFL predictions thread
Post by: Sixpence on September 09, 2007, 11:10:59 AM
Ok, here it is, the start of another glorious football season. It's time to call the division, playoff, Sb winners.

AFC division winners

Patriots
colts
Steelers
Chargers

WC teams  Broncos, Ravens

NFC division winners

Cowboys
Bears
Panthers
Seahawks

WC teams  49ers, Saints

AFC winners   Colts

NFC winners Cowboys

SB winner Colts

The colts have an ice cream schedule. How this happens is beyond me, maybe peyton's dad is under a desk somewhere. But because of this they will get home field and repeat.

I would love to predict the Pats, but their schedule is going to leave them beat up pretty good and will run out of gas in the playoffs.

I'll put that loss on the coaching staff, their timid approach to beating the colts was pathetic. To have the QB with the best rating out of the shotgun formation and not use that weapon is beyond me. And that first drive, a 52 yard field goal and the chance Manning will have the ball at the 42? When you just watched you kicker not even make the 10 yard line on the opening kickoff? You have three yards to make, have some balls!!

Best QB??? Maybe for whatever team they are playing against. 1 fumble and 2 interceptions. He looked rattled the entire game. Manning on the other hand looked he was out there shooting a "Here's how you do it" video.

It only took 3 quarters for San Diego to figure out how to move the ball against Chicago...  Good defensive battle there, and of course the Chargers won.

Regarding the terrible referees...  I think both sides got nailed BAD by terrible calls, but I think it evened out in the end.  The Bears defense came across the line before the snap with the ball 4 inches from the goal line and caused a fumble, and the refs didn't call anything so the "no call" couldn't even be challenged.  4 inches from a touchdown and and an offsides no-call that can't be challenged is about as crucial a referee mistake that can be made.  Of course, a Charger clothslined a Bear later in the game right in front of half the refs and that wasn't called, so I guess it evened out.  But still, the Bears defense were timing the snap so aggressively that you'd think the refs would have been watching more closely with the ball on the 4 inch line, but I guess they had something better to do.

Forgive me, does New Orleans have to play the Colts in order to get to the Super Bowl? (please read this with a sarcastic inflection as it is a rhetorical question)

Read again, he had the best QB rating out of the shotgun formation last year, even better than Manning

As long as Philadelphia still has McNabb and Andy Reid, they will never win the big one.

No...Colts are AFC and Saints are NFC.  They can meet in regular season, but not in the playoffs until the SB

Randy Moss missed every pre-season game, and all of training camp with a leg injury, with his new team the PATS.

So what dose the best QB and one of the best WR do in their first game together, Randy puts up his 3rd best receiving yards of his career.

Wait untill they "figure it out"...:O

Wait untill the team "figures Moss out, and what a backstabber he can be, and alienate his entire team like he did with the Vikings and Oakland"


Fixed! :rofl

Not on Bill Belichick’s team, He'll be watching allot of games from the slid line. Moss needs The Pats more then they need him. Unlike oakland and the vikings

Randy should flourish under Belichick. Good luck to the Pats! :aok

Da Bears are gonna take the Superbowl this year, as long as Rex Grossman doesn't screw it up.

Bears have to play REAL teams this year, not gonna be so easy getting home field advantage thru the playoffs, making warm-weather teams play in in 11 degree, howling windy weather

LOL The only Bowl the Bears are gonna take this year is the cerial bowl.

They were the most over rated superbowl team in NFL history last year.
And judging from what I saw in the game against the Chargers
they dont look to be a whole lot different.

the Bears have a very good Defence but they their weakness is they tend ot over persue.
But still its a very good defence.
But.

Will they be able to generate the kinds of turnovers they did last year?
Probably not.
Will the Team overall be as lucky as it was last year.
And lets be honest.
Damn near half the games the Bears won they pulled out from sheer luck and sometimes in spite of themselves (second Vikling game).

The offence and Grossman in particular. Is still inconsistant
and the other Teams in their Division have all improved themselves.
Even the lowly Lions.

I'll agree that the best thing the Bears have is there defense, Mike Brown is one of the greatest under rated defensive player, and the rest of the defense is amazing.  If the Bears had a better QB they would be a much better team, our defense won most our games last year.  The game against the Chargers would have been a Bears win if our offense was better, for almost the first 3 quarters we had them shut out, but couldn't score ourselves because of our weak offense.
