Are You Ready For Some Football Picks

I am not as big of a football fan as baseball but none the less I will still go out on a limb and make my football predictions for the upcoming season.

NFC East – 1. Dallas 2. Washington 3. NY Giants 4. Washington. – Dallas seems to have things clicking even with the TO circus. Washington has a great Defense. If they score at all they will be there. The Giants are good but have a brutal schedule. The Eagles have too many holes too fill.

NFC North1. Chicago 2. Detroit 3. Minnesota 4 Green Bay – The Bears are the best of a bad division. Nine wins should be enough to get them to the post season. The Lions are better but not yet ready to challenge Chicago. The Vikings seem to have taken a step back from last year. The Pack has an aging Favre and defense that is brutal.

NFC South – 1. Carolina 2. Atlanta 3. Tampa Bay 4. New Orleans – The Panthers look to be the cream of the crop in the NFC. A good balance on both sides of the ball. The Falcons have the talent and need Vick too make the step up to greatness. Tampa is a nice team but plays in a tough division. The Saints will be better but still have some work to do.

NFC West – 1. Seattle 2. Arizona 3. St. Louis 4. San FranciscoThe ‘Hawks are the best in this weak division. They should take the title with ease. Arizona is a nice team on paper but this team is always snake bit. The Rams are re-building and will take a year before they are better. The 49’ers are lousy and don’t have much hope.

AFC East – 1. New England 2. Miami 3. NY Jets 4. BuffaloThe Pat’s are still the class of the East and should win this one again. The Dolphins are better and will challenge for a playoff spot. The Jets are brutal and will have a hell of a time scoring. The Bills hired Dick Jauron to fix things. Enough said.

AFC North – 1. Pittsburgh 2. Baltimore 3. Cincinnati 4. Cleveland – The Steelers should win this division with their D. The Ravens are better and could be a surprise team. The Bengals will not sneak up on anyone this year and Palmer’s knee scares me. The Browns are a continuing joke in the NFL.

AFC South 1. Indianapolis 2. Jacksonville 3. Houston 4. TennesseeThe Colts again will be the best in the South. The Jag’s are not as good as they were last year. The Texans will be improved but then again how could they not be. The Titans are re-building but have some nice players.

AFC West – 1. Kansas City 2. Denver 3. San Diego 4 Oakland – If the Chiefs get any D at all they will be a tough team. The Broncos are a nice team but may have taken a step back from last year. The Chargers are handing the reigns to Rivers who has never started a game. The Raiders are as usual a complete mess.
