  1. I like the Vikings to win more than 10. Maybe 13 or 14. I don't think the Packers will break past 8 or 9 wins. Cowboys winning 14 is wishful thinking for the 'boys fans. Other than that, I can't argue with much.

    1. i agree with the cowboys thing now that you mention it

  2. I think 12-4 for the Eagles is wrong, more like 9-7, maybe 10-6 at best. They play half their games this year against 2007 playoff teams, their receivers are still only average at best, their defense is fading, their tackles are ancient, McNabb is fragile as always an even when he's not fragile the fans are on him for every errant pass. Stop Westbrook and you stop their team.

    1. Osi you've obviously been drinking and I'd suggest the authorities give you a urinalysis. 12-4 is HIGHLY likey for the Eagles. We came on strong at the end of the year. Our D is fading???? OOOOOOOOOOKAY pal, light up another one. With the addition of Asante who's going to try to pass it against us? We now have Lito, Asante, Sheldon Brown, Brian Dawkins, etc in the secondary, Trent Cole aka one of the most underrated players in the NFL, and our revamped D line will DOMINATE. Offense: Healthy McNabb (or whoever they throw in at QB. AJ Feeley almost beat the mighty Gaytriots in the regular season), LJ Smith, our new additions of Lorenzo Booker who's a GREAT compliment to Westie, our wide receivers aren't the best, but you count Booker and Westie who can BOTH catch out of the backfield we're sick. Plus Jackson adds instant offense AND a great punt/kick returner. SO add all that up, remember that the She-Men led by She-li Manning lost a majority of their superbowl pieces on defense (Strahans gonna be on Dental Work with the Stars!), Cowboys have too many 'playmakers' to really challenge even though they look good on paper, and the Deadskins are still owned by Dan Snyder and you quickly see that we should be the favorites to win the East. Sorry buddy, but just because you fluked up and won the bowl last year doesn't make you an authority on football. Learn about it before you make asenine comments.

  3. The Eagles will go 10-6. We aren't good enough to go 12-4.
    Also, the Saints aren't good enough to be 11-5, and the Cardinals aren't good enough to be even 7-9. Plus, the Seahawks are better than 9-7.

    I'll make an article on my NFC predictions soon.

  4. Saints 11-5? Definitely possible... Last season was a wash but dont forget the year before that when they went to the NFC championship game.. There is still alot of fight left in these boys. Good call on that one

  5. thanks.

  6. Im an eagles fan but dont like what i see this upcoming year. Call me crazy but I say these next 2 years will be tough to watch. 7-9 this year.

  7. no cowboys are the worst team ever

  8. This is a good analyisis(is that spelled right?)and predictions, but there needs to be reasons behind your records, and St. Louis going 7-9? They just had about a thousand injuries this last year.I see them coming on strong in 08-09 especially in their division

  9. The 49ers have patched up the weak spots in their defense, and have completely revamped their offense, hiring mike martz as an offensive coordinator and signing a number of experienced players, next year i would predict they go 8-8

  10. im a rams fan..and i see us being 8-8 or 9-7(wishful thinking) at best...i think the giants cowboys n vikings are gonna be the nfc best..cowboys probably choke again in the playoffs..cowboys have the most talent though i dont understand how they choke...hope tom bradys knee gets blown out this year

  11. taylor,.... and eric, the rams did have many injurys last year many players are still recovering plus bulger had a bad season too i can only see him getting worse they were horrible last year and they may be better 8-8 highest.

  12. Arizona is the team to watch. went through many injuries last season and still finished 8-8. even though it is hard to overlook how close they were to going 10-6. and possibly even 12-4. missed field goal here. not falling on a fumble there to win the game against san fran. In it to the end of every game and controlled their own fate. But shot themselves in the foot. so did these other teams really win or did the cardinals beat themselves? with the same coaching staff two seasons in a row with the same offensive line (healthy) and the same system which cardinals have very rarely had in franchise history puts them in a far better place than last season. Having two good quarterbacks healthy doesnt hurt either. Arizona showed last year they could compete with anybody. not to mention they are in the stummbling nfc west which has only gotten a little worse and no better. I know everyone will be surprised that arizona will win the nfc west this year and make the playoffs. that just shows that all that is being looked at is history and not the beast that is being built. however, will just say i told you so.

  13. Call me crazy. I have the sleeper team of the year.
    Detroit Lions.
    Perdiction 10-6 minimum, 11-5 max.
    Win NFC north
    Lose in playoffs to the packers(Wildcard)
    Its gunna happen
