Preseason Prognostication

Since I’ve yammered about football the last two days, I thought maybe it was time to put it on the line and offer my fearless preseason predictions.  I’ll lay it out by how I expect things to go divisionally and in the playoffs as well as guess at some potential MVP candidates. I, of course, reserve the right to change my mind if some big injuries occur in the next few weeks, but we’re a month out from the first regular season games so let’s go for it.

AFC East:

Patriots, Bills, Jets, Dolphins

AFC North:

Browns, Steelers, Bengals, Ravens

AFC South:

Colts, Jags, Titans, Texans

AFC West:

Chargers, Broncos, Chiefs, Raiders

AFC Playoffs:

Patriots, Colts, Chargers, Browns, Steelers & Jaguars

NFC East:

Cowboys, Redskins, Giants, Eagles (toughest division to pick right here)

NFC North:

Vikings, Packers, Bears, Lions

NFC South:

Saints, Bucs, Panthers, Falcons

NFC West:

Seahawks, Cardinals, Rams, 49ers

NFC Playoffs:

Cowboys, Saints, Seahawks, Vikings, Redskins and I’ll put my Bucs here, though I wouldn’t be surprised if both wildcard teams came from the NFC East.

Superbowl:

Patriots defeat Cowboys

MVP:

Peyton Manning

Offensive Player of the Year:

Adrian Peterson

Defensive Player of the Year:

this is tougher….I’ll go with a refreshed Jason Taylor on a new team

Offensive Rookie of the Year:

Darren McFadden, Raiders

Defensive Rookie of the Year:

Sedrick Ellis, Saints

So that’s where I am right now.  I may sneak in and make some changes as sanity prevails, but this is what my heart says right now.  Any other football fans out there, feel free to add your picks in my comments section or just make fun of mine.  I’m sure they’ll be laughable by the time the season ends.

  1. What about Tom Brady for “Hottest Player?” I know Max Brady is like the epicenter of All Things Brady, but I still think Tom is tops.

  2. Oh…you weren’t aware that I have been referring to Tom Brady as my husband for the past 7 years or so were you? hehe I’ve recently been a little bothered by his Gisele relationship taking him away from football, so I am thinking of mentally divorcing him. But yes…he is HOTTTTT. To invoke Max is just wrong! hehe

    I actually found Tom hot in college even, so I feel it’s ok to stake my claim. But he needs to stop gallivanting with his supermodel!
