I guess I overreacted here, because I can definitely see the Texans in the SB, not too sure about the Eagles though.

AFC East:
*1. New England
*2. New York
3. Buffalo
4. Miami

*1. Baltimore
2. Pittsburgh
3. Cincinnati
4. Cleveland

AFC South:
*1. Houston

3. Indianapolis
4. Jacksonville

AFC West:

*2. San Diego
3. KC
4. Oakland

Do you think Manning will get injured or do you just not think he has enough around him?

I think SD is going to have a bounce back year and KC is stacked.

I think SD will too, but I thought that last year. As long as Norv is there, they will always underachieve imo. Still beyond me why they fired Marty. I just don't see KC doing better than Denver. That division might be the most competitive this year in the AFC.

Peyton Manning still makes Denver at minimum 2 wins better than last year (8-8), so I see Denver at least 10-6. The AFC West has become surprisingly good. Even Oakland is capable of making the playoffs...that's a 4 team race.

Also have noticed that Manning can no longer make the throws he used to. An 80% Manning is still better than a 1000% Tebow but I think other teams will be better.

Alshon Jeffery is the leading rookie receiver in yards and tds.

Colts win at least 7 games.

Miami goes 4-12. Picks 8th. Selects a 2nd rounder.

Same old same old. But yeah theres parody in the NFL.

Prediction: Baltimore owns everybody's ass and wins the Superbowl like they should have last year. Other prediction: no one believes me.

They won't. Too many issues (O-Line, loss of Suggs, etc).

Green Bay gets a wild card spot when their defense is shoddy to start the year (I'm thinking 3-3 to start the year, something like 7-3 to finish). But they make a run similar to 2010 and get to the Super Bowl again.

Where do you keep hearing they are having O-line troubles?
