getting harder and harder to predict with the longer season. injuries can make a great team into nothing late in the year while a couple great rookies can propel your team into the playoffs.

AFC

East

12-5 Miami - hands down most loaded team on both sides
8-9 Bills- aside from Allen and a good dline they have nobody left
7-10 Jets- most overrated team in nfl, they've got a weak roster
5-12 Pats- they will win 5 games by accident

North

11-6 Balt- they lost some pieces
9-8 Pit- no clue how Tomlin does it year after year
8-9 Clev- tough division and schedule
7-10 Cin- another overated team by the media, they aren't that good

South

10-7 Hou- a bit alarming how many people are overrating them but their division sucks
8-9 Jack - a mediocre team
8-9 TEN- one of those average teams that wins about half
6-11 Indy- not a believer in their QB but hope i'm wrong


West

10-7 Den- gotta pick someone aside the chiefs (you can't win it every year) and they are my guess
9-8 KC- think this is the year they fall back hard due to injuries and bad luck
8-9 LAC- surprised people aren't overrating them higher
7-10 OAK- you need a QB to compete in this league

1. MIA
2. balt
3. den
4. hou
5. kc
6. pit
7. clev


NFC

East

11-6 WASH- that QB of theirs gonna be the CJ of this season
10-7 DAL- they got enough talent for 10 wins
8-9 PHI- do people forget how they finished last year? they got problems at QB/coach
5-12 NYG- a team that lets talent leave and pays bad players big contracts


north

11-6 CHI - Caleb is the real deal and they got talent on D
10-7 GB- overhyped by the media too much they are good but not great
9-8- DET- good talent but bonehead coach will keep them down
6-11 MIN- you need a QB in this league or else you are cooked

south

toughest division to predict

9-8 TB - i gotta pick someone to win this crap division
8-9 CAR- think they surprise people, they aren't that bad
7-10 ATL- they have a 3 year plan
6-11 NO- a team in perpetual cap hell year after year.



west

11-6 LAR- they got 1 more good year before stafford gets old
10-7 SF- they have a bit of a fall back year
7-10 AZ- they could surprise people if Murray plays well
6-11 SEA- see this as a rebuild year

1. Rams
2. CHI
3. WASH
4. TB
5. DAL
6. GB
7. SF


super bowl: KC vs. WASH
winner: KC (big fucking surprise lol)
after struggling in the regular season due to injuries and some bad calls they squeak into the playoffs and mahomes and kelce lead them to another super bowl run on the road.

Tough division as always but repeating in the division for the Ravens is going to be very tough and they lost several key defensive players from last year... so we will see.. it will be very very interesting to watch how it plays out

I like Washington as a sleeper.. I know everyone is so high on Caleb but I think that Jayden is the real deal..

I dont see Ravens doing anything big this year but lets get 1mo in first @dylangemelli

100%%

 

[Mobster]

Someone will win lol

 

[zedhed]

I've got Kansas winning the Super Bowl
I'm not sure though I don't really follow Sports

 

[caligirl85]

I don't watch football
fans of the sport are a bunch of drunks who beat on their wives

 

[Shrine]

oh I like your list Dylan
but I think you're under rating the Falcons a little bit
they have Kirk Cousins now and he is a winner

 

[Zyglamail]

no way the Bengals win the Super Bowl
they can't even sign their own players

 

[Arabian]

I think the Cowboys might actually win the Super Bowl this year
Jerry Jones has them believing

 

[BookerTNY]

Buffalo has a really good team
and I think Josh Allen has a lot to prove

 

[sambee38]

my pick is the Panthers
they get no respect but they are improved a lot and I like their new coach

 

[Austin316]

the Giants are gonna suck
i hate the owner, same with the jets, they are trash

 

[Quadsweep]

my pick in the AFC is the chargers
harbaugh is no joke

 

[BodyMonster34]

bro the cowboys are gonna win the super bowl
dak for mvp and CEEdee lamb gonna get 2000 yards no stopping them

 

[JasonPriest]

the bears are gonna take it this year
Caleb is gonna take the world by storm !

 

[Masonic Bodybuilder]

Go Bills!!! I am a little nervous about this season but see either a division win or 2nd place to Miami. Still making the playoffs at 10-7. Unfortunately I do see the Chiefs winning the Super Bowl again and making it 3 in a row. It makes me sick to say it, lol.
