AFC Division winners....

Buffalo - 11-5, The loss of Price will be made up for by the improved defense.

Pittsburgh - 10-6, Maddox a one year wonder? His numbers weren't that good to begin with. It was the fire that made him look so good. Bus goes flat, Amos takes over, running game works.

Indianapolis - 10-6, Why did I pick Indy to win the division? Because FGators promised me that Peyton Manning will finally drop the Gomer Pyle act, and actually win something for once.

Oakland - 11-5, Rich Gannon decides that his career wouldn't be the same, without another blown shot at a superbowl ring.

AFC Champions - Buffalo Bills.

NFC Division winners.....

Washington - 11-5, I'm a Steve Spurrier homer, how can I not pick them?

Green Bay - 10-6, The NFL decides to add a new rule, special for Favre - No dome games. Why? Because the media hasn't been able to kiss his a** for a long while now, and he just looks average.

Atlanta - 11-5, Brad Johnson goes down to injury, giving Vick's Falcons just enough to win the division.

St. Louis - 11-5, young defense expected to do nothing... Kurt Warner expected to do nothing.. Does 1999 sound familar? Silly doubters.

NFC winners - Atlanta Falcons.

Superbowl winners - Atlanta Falcons. Vick Mania goes wild, we get annoyed by it in 2 years time and start hoping for injuries.

At least a playoff win this year. :matrix:

[randymoss]

Vikings will win at least 9 game and win the NFC North

Randy Moss will have 1500+ yards, and 15+ TDs

Pearless Price won't be as good as people think

Miami will make the playoffs

St. Louis will have a huge year and win their division

The NFC Wildcard will be Atlanta or Giants

Offensive ROTY: Charles Rogers

Defensive ROTY: Terence Newman

I agree 100% LOL!

[Mister Cleats]

Super Bowl: Philadelphia Eagles vs. PHILADELPHIA EAGLES. It'll be close, but the PHILADELPHIA EAGLES will beat the Philadelphia Eagles on the last play of the 4th Qtr. 27-24. The PHILADELPHIA EAGLES will finally have their Super Bowl Championship.

[FGators]

No way in the world the Browns only win 4 games. This is a playoff team that was pretty young last year and is maturing by gaining more experience. Hard schedule or not expect at least 8 wins.

ok i really have to dis agree with you here.

Nfc south. one of league's weaker divisions? are you serious. last year the Bucs win the super Bowl and the Falcons go deep into the playoffs, and the saints barely miss the playoffs and go 9-7. and the panthers are going to be good this year. now is this really a weak division?

now for your predictions.

1.) Tampa Bay 12-4
2.) Saints 10-6
3.) Falcons 9-7
4.) Panthers 7-9
