NFL Predictions

[kyro]

OK, almost halfway into the season, thought I'd put up a fairly informal poll (to tell the truth, i was bored as all hell in history today)

Basically, I'm just curious which teams you think will make the playoffs, their final records, and the results of those games in the playoffs. Personally, I think the 6 teams in the AFC are all but locks for the playoffs, whereas the NFC has about 12 awful teams fighting for a couple spots. Have fun!

AFC East: Patriots (14-2)
AFC North: Steelers (12-4)
AFC South: Colts (11-5)
AFC West: Broncos (11-5)
AFC Wildcard: Jets (11-5)
AFC Wildcard: Jaguars (10-6)

NFC East: Eagles (13-3)
NFC North: Vikings (11-5)
NFC South: Falcons (9-7)
NFC West: Seahawks (10-6)
NFC Wildcard: Giants (10-6)
NFC Wildcard: Packers (9-7)


Jets over Broncos
Colts over Jaguars
Giants over Falcons
Packers over Seahawks

Pats over Jets
Colts over Steelers
Eagles over Giants
Vikings over Packers

Pats over Colts
Eagles over Vikings

Huge Steeler fan here. I would be surprised if the Steelers win 9 games this year.

Remaining Home Games:
New England (L)
Philadelphia (L)
Washington (W)
NY Jets (?)
Baltimore (?)

Remaining Road Games:
Cleveland (?)
Cincinnati (W)
Jacksonville (L)
NY Giants (L)
Buffalo (?)

My predictions indicate 2 games where they "should" win and 4 games where I consider it a toss up. It's a tough schedule the rest of the season.

buffalo's a question mark? i don't care where they're playing. buffalo's offensive line is worse than penn state's. (for anyone who saw their amazing 6-4 loss on saturday...)

the steelers haven't played any very good teams yet, but roethlisberger's game against miami convinced me he's the man for now. he played very well against a top defense. 12-4 might be a bit high, but I fully expect them to make the playoffs with ease.

They are still probably the favorite in the NFC West, but right now the Seahawks stink.

It's hard to imagine them making the playoffs at the moment.

I hope you are right. Regardless of my predictions, 5 of the 10 remaining games are against teams you predicted to make the playoffs.

I made 3 bets on teams' total wins this year:

Jacksonville over 7.5 wins
Pittsburgh over 7.5 wins
Minnesota over 8.5 wins

They are all looking good right now but the Steeler one still scares me. (I also have some money on Jacksonville winning the superbowl that would pay pretty good)

As for your predictions, I think in the AFC, it's Denver and New England playing the best football. In the NFC it's the Eagles running away with it. Minnesota can play but no team with a defense like that goes to the Super Bowl.

BWAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHHA


Wait.... Wait....


BWAAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHHAH


Have you seen the Jets or the Broncos play this year? Or are you making random guesses based on the records? I'm guessing the latter.

[kyro]

actually, i think the jets are one of the top teams in the nfl right now. martin has returned to top form, i still think pennington is one of the top QB's in the league although he HAS struggled. and the jets played the patriots tough yesterday AT gillette stadium. i'm a believer.

btw, when you say cards in 5 does that mean you're praying they even make it to game 5?
