Thread: NFL Predictions 2012

Something I put together a little while ago.

NFL 2012 Regular Season Predictions

What follows is not necessarily exactly how I would place each team if I was asked who would finish in which position. It is the results of me going through the entire schedule and with a little analysis predicting who will win each game throughout the season. I will place the following predicted win totals by division.
AFC East
Buffalo 13-3
New England 12-4
New York 8-8
Miami 3-13
AFC West
Denver 10-6
San Diego 9-7
Kansas City 6-10
Oakland 5-11
AFC North
Baltimore 13-3
Cincinnati 12-4
Pittsburgh 7-9
Cleveland 3-13
AFC South
Houston 13-3
Tennessee 6-10
Jacksonville 2-14
Indianapolis 2-14
NFC East
Philadelphia 14-2
Dallas 12-4
New York 9-7
Washington 6-10
NFC West
San Francisco 14-2
Seattle 5-11
St. Louis 3-13
Arizona 3-13
NFC North
Green Bay 12-4
Chicago 12-4
Detroit 10-6
Minnesota 5-11
NFC South
New Orleans 11-5
Carolina 7-9
Atlanta 6-10
Tampa Bay 3-13
I have underlined the teams that will make the playoffs if these records transpire. I probably won’t get any of those predictions right. Soon to come are some Pre-preseason rankings that will be a collaboration of my own analysis combined with two of my colleagues.

not horrible predictions, but i do disagree with them.

philly is going to be overated, just like last year

saying the giants wont make the playoffs with that dline, and there on the road record is nieve

if the cowgirls make the playoffs, i for one will be shocked

the jets will be 2nd in the afc east

the only was denver does not win the afc west is if manning gets hurt

also i hate how almost every year new england is picked to win it all. when was there last s/b win 04 season? if its the pats giants in the s/b bet the house on the giants.

as far as da bears are concerned i think 2nd round in the playoffs is where i expect them to end up. i dont know who will knock them out, but i'm not sure if our oline has improved enough for a s/b run.

my .02 cents.

GO BEARS!

Superbowl 47 Champions:

Da Bears.

Shame on you all.

Sorry lb and my brothers. I never make predictions. Just not my thing. But I will say that I'm expecting an 11-5 season from the Bears give or take one win. That's my only prediction if you even want to call it that.

I'm still going 10-6 and a wildcard. that is as much prediction as I'm gonna do.
