About Jarred »

My name is Jarred. I was put on to the Bleacher Report during a journalism convention that I was attending last week by my boys Bonta, Aaron, Sean, and Marcus. I am currently the Sports Editor for my College Newspaper and I share the same passion for sports as my counterparts that I have just mentioned. Im originally from the East Coast of the US, Washington D.C and currently reside in San Diego, CA. I'm a Communications/Mass Media major and I hope to either be a sports journalist or in sports public relations when I'm done with school. I hope to get alot of experience here and can make some good connections while giving you the most raw and in depth sports editorials while I am here on the Bleacher Report.

My 2009 NFL predictions continue with the NFC South. Last year the Panthers took the divison, while the Falcons stormed onto the scene as a playoff contender. As the new season approaches, who shall take the division crown this year? Appreciate any feedback given!
