Place your bets folk... Pick your Superbowl winner here, now for some good "i told you so" later... Debate, Groan/Moan over your favorite team.
I know my Minnesota Vikings are going to be the balls this year.
Tavarias Jackson? C'mon now. Seriously. Well, it could be worse- We could have Aaron Rodgers as our QB. The NFC North is the armpit of the conference. The division winner will be lucky if they are 8-8.

I have always been a Falcons fan.. wayyyyyyyyyyyy before Vick. It was neon deon that hooked me. And the falcons just gave out the largest rookie contract ever $72million!!!
That mean the Falcons have to win it all, RIGHT?!

Aaron Rodgers actually looked good last game. Minnesota's QB on the other hand...not so much.
The boys will pull it off this year. No one left in the division to give them a run. Giants lost players, key players. Eagles are still the eagles and the redskins are still the redskins.

Even though NFC North's QB's are questionable, the armpit of the NFC, w/o question, is the NFC West, seriously......

I guess somebody from the NFC West has to make the playoffs

The Bills opener is against Seattle, so we'll see. Would 8-8 for AZ guarantee them a playoff spot? When the Bills went 9-7 and didn't make the playoffs, I almost put my foot through the screen....

my BROWNIES are gonna be tough, but i'm not a homer. the best teams on paper are
1. San Diego Chargers 2. Dallas Cowboys 3. New England Patriots 4. Indy Colts 5. Jax Jaguars I'll take the Pats over the Boys in the bowl. Brady and co. have been there down that, and they're hungry after last years upset loss.

Seattle is the team to beat in the division. but i think both Zona and San Fran will be improved. And St. Louis could rebound. i see the division like this
Seahawks 9-7
49ers 7-9
Cards 7-9
Rams 6-10
9-7 wont cut it in the AFC East. Pats win that division and the two wild cards will come from the south and west. Indy/Jax are both in. the other wildcard is the 2nd team in the west Denver/S.D. or from the north Pitt/Cleve. sorry Bills fan with Favre in New York and the mighty Pats in your division it will take 10 to 11 wins to get a wildcard and thats very unlikely in the AFC. the good news is nobody predicted my Browns to win 10 games last year and nobody outside of New York thought the Giants would win the Superbowl. i personally love what the Bills have been doing the last 2 years. they have a young stingy defense and Lynch and Evans on offense. their O-line is nice too. Losman or whoever is the QB has to be lights out for them to make a run this year though...

I think they were 1-1 last year, jacksonville has been the colts first loss of the season for a few years .

So you're saying my lions have a chance.
Actually, they'll probably start 7 - 1 and lose the last 8 games of the season.

I love the cowboys during the regular season... but I have no faith in Romo in the playoffs. New England will probably come back to earth a bit this year. I have to give the edge in the AFC to either the Colts or the Chargers... probably the Colts because of Peyton.
I could see a dark horse like the Saints come out of the NFC. AFC will win the superbowl.
Those are my locks. Bet as you wish but I want a cut if you steal my pics.

Nice some Bills talk, that doesn't happen often. Yea, JP Losman is out, and Trent Edwards is in at QB. Defensive is coming around after trading away Spikes and Clements. That's most of our problem, we just don't have the money to add that 'all-star' the team needs. I think we're the second "poorest" team in the league, behind the Bengals, I remember hearing on ESPN? They're trying at strings though, can't wait for the "home away from home" games in Canada
... Wow....

The AFC is just so stacked. We always pay the rivals great though. I think we're 4-0 against Miami, won the last 5 of 6 against the Jets, and it always seems to come pay to a stupid play against the Pats. The game winning field goal we missed last year was crushing....
