Football b!tches.. make predictions n get in fights here and we can all laugh in a year at how stupid most of us are

steelerz make the superbowl

p. manning chokes again in opening playoff game

cj spiller wins rushing title

nfc least teams all blow again except for the giants because they own the scrubs in that division

Flacco has a monster statistical year. It's his team now, and without Cam Cameron's shit play calling, Flacco blossoms. 4700 yards and 32 TDs.

Seahawks own Bills by over 40 points. Oh wait, that was last year.

Steelers/niners superbowl

No Hablo will claim he doesn't care about season or paying attention until Eagles win a game.

No one cares about Jaguars still.

Romo and Sanchez will compete for most INT

Sean Payton (Coach of the Year) and Drew Brees (MVP) gape the league for 5500 yds, 51 TDs, 72% and after going 16-0 they go on another all time great postseason run ending with a Superbowl victory over the Patriots

Egals get hit with NCAA sanctions, Chip Kelly tries to argue its impossible for the NCAA to punish the egals but realizes his team is too soft and it grows on him as well. He feels bullied by the NCAA causing him to give in and agree that sanctions must be made to the Egals. 

RG3rd place has his knee fall out during week 2. Elf gets blamed and fired week 5 and the Redskins hire Jim Zorn again. 

Eli retires week 8 and turns to his true calling. Later he stars in Broadway on a Cats production. 

Blaine Gabbert throws for 4000+ yards, 30+ TDs, and has less than 10 INTs and Fumbles combined. Named MVP of the league.

Jaguars win the AFC with a record of 15-1. MJD rushes for 1500 yards, 20 rushing TDs, 6 receiving TDs, and wins Offensive player of the year.

Oh wait? NFL season? I thought you said Madden 25 predictions. My bad.

Flacco has a monster statistical year. It's his team now, and without Cam Cameron's shit play calling, Flacco blossoms. 4700 yards and 32 TDs.

Seahawks own Bills by over 40 points. Oh wait, that was last year.

Amendola stays healthy, posts 120-1500-10 line.

Matt Ryan is at least second team all-pro

JJ Watt equals last years numbers and makes a credible push for league MVP

Behind an already stout defense and improved play from 2012 draftees Brandon Weeden and Trent Richardson the Browns finish the season with 8 or 9 wins.

Cowgirls will lose all there games in December.

Eli and Romo will compete for the most INTs in the NFC. Vick gets 3rd but only because he's benched or gets hurt again or both.

Jason Garret lasts all season and stays with the Cowgirls even though they miss the playoffs again.

RG3 will play more games then Demarco Murray.

NFC North:

Packers

Bears

Lions

Vikings

Jim Schwartz loses his job.

The Cardinals will make the playoffs.RevanBITW

Eli Manning eats a ****

Cowboys win at least one playoff game.

49ers make it back to the SuperBowl and the Ravens miss out on the playoffs. 

 

RG3 will play more games then Demarco Murray.

Thanks waste. 

I'll make a real prediction and say EJ Manuel wins Offensive ROY.

People are underrating the Ravens so bad. They go to the playoffs every year, the Steelers are at a weak point considering where they've been before, but the Bengals are supposed to knockout the Super Bowl champions? And not even make it to the wild card in a weak AFC? Really? ughRevanBITW

Well, they do have an easy schedule.  If they split their games against the Steelers and Bengals and sweep the Browns I think 8-8 is realistic, 10-6 is very possible.  Whether or not 10-6 will be good enough for a Wild Card depends on A) what the Steelers and Bengals do B) if the West and East field some good teams.  The South probably has one Wild Card locked up, the second one is up in the air.  That being said, they lost a TON of starters, and all the teams in their division got better.  Cleveland's defense is starting to look good, and Cincy's offense is loaded with weapons.  I'm not the biggest fan of either of those QBs, I think if they were to somehow play Blatimore in the playoffs they'd lose no question, but they might have better records than Baltimore in the regular season, or they could at least drop Baltimore's record down to the point where they lose out in the Wild Card race.

Vick plays 16 games, leads Philly to its first Superbowl win.

Chip Kelly is hailed as the messiah.

Oh and the Packers will have a losing season.  

I'll make a real prediction and say EJ Manuel wins Offensive ROY.

Just from glancing at the schedule (and knowing these predictions aren't going to hold up):

NFC North

Bears-exceeed everyone's expectations, finish 11-5

Lions-early losing streak ruins an otherwise up-and down season, Schwarz doesn't finish the year, finish 6-10

Packers-we get another undefeated season scare, finish 14-2

Vikings-a couple of win streaks save them from being among the worst *cough* Jaguars *cough*, Lezlie Frazer is at least on the hot seat if not fired, finish 4-12

NFC South

Buccaneers-a surprise team, they feast on division rivals in transition, finish 10-6

Falcons-a down year for Matt Ryan and company thanks to a shoddy defense, finish 8-8

Panthers-among the worst in the league, Ron Rivera is probably fired around the halfway point, finish 3-13

Saints-a transition year as Rob Ryan's defense doesn't catch on right away, finish 9-7

NFC East

Cowboys-up and down year as defense feasts on some opponents, gets fed on by others, and offense is consistent yet not spectacular, finish 8-8

Eagles-Line gives good protection, but lack of playmakers and a defense in transition mean an average debut for Chip Kelley, finish 4-12

Giants-very down year for the Giants with a poor defensive showing, finish 5-11

Redskins-a weak division means it's their year with an up-and-coming offense and an average defense, finish 11-5

NFC West

Cardinals-up and down year with great defense, but struggling offense behind inconsistent quarterback play, finish 9-7

49ers-an easy schedule makes for a good record, finish 11-5

Rams-a surprise story behind a good defense and an improved O-line, finish 10-6

Seahawks-A great defense backs up an offense that shines most of the time, finish 12-4

AFC North

Bengals-plenty of potential, but inconsistent at times, finish 10-6

Browns-another surprise team with a great defense, but inconsistent QB play, finish 11-5

Ravens-losing players leads to an up and down season, but put together a late win streak, finish 10-6

Steelers fall off big time due to age, Tomlin is on hot seat or fired, finish 7-9

AFC South

Colts-down season with average defensive play, finish 7-9

Jaguars-the laughingstock of the league (sorry yokofox), finish 1-15

Texans-their first loss comes in week 13, finish 14-2

Titans-a bad season with the O-line and defense not living up to low expectations, Munchak could be fired, finish 3-13

AFC East

Bills-a surprise season with a decent defense and inconsistent offense, finish 5-11

Dolphins-Tannehill and the offense takes the next step, defense holds down the fort, wins and losses come in streaks, finish 10-6

Jets-a bad season for the Jets, Ryan probably fired, finish 4-12

Patriots-a down season by Pat standards, with some big wins nonetheless, including spoiling the Texans' win streak, finish 8-8

AFC West

Broncos-easy schedule makes for an amazing record, finish 14-2

Chargers-a disappointing season with no playmakers showing up on offense and defense only marginally better, finish 7-9

Chiefs-an up and down season from Andy Reid behind a good defense and disappointing play from Alex Smith, finish 7-9

Raiders-the bottom of the barrel along with the Jaguars and Panthers, finish 2-14

The Browns? You're just throwing turds are the wall hoping it sticks.RevanBITW

I was a little surprised at that myself.  I was just looking at the NFL schedule week by week and picking which matchups I liked, Browns just happened to end up like that.  I have them splitting their division games, winning against the Dolphins, Vikings, Bills, Lions, Chiefs, Jaguars, Bears, and Jets, and losing to the Packers and Patriots.  Maybe a bigger margin of error than other teams, but I think they have a shot at double-digit wins and competing for a wild card.  You know what one of the biggest factors in this is?  Joe Haden.  And like I said, I don't expect this to stick.  I think win loss predictions and even guessing division and wild card winners are pretty much meaningless at this point in the season, but I do expect the Browns to improve, the Ravens to lose a step (just one), the Bengals to pretty much stay where they are, and the Steelers to fall off.

Oh didn't you hear?  Defence is obsolete in Kelly's system!  Our focus is to score 100 points a game!  ;P

I think there's going to be a few small changes across the league. I think the Chiefs will be a bigger contender this year in the AFC but I'm not sure if they'll make the playoffs because they will be number two behind the Broncos. We'll see what happens in that regard. In the NFC I expect the Redskins to drop and fall short despite talent at the QB position and I put the Giants on top. Ravens won't be as good because they're getting old just like the Steelers did. The 49ers will be right back in the playoffs with big teams like the Pack and the Falcons. watch out for Seattle because they are real now. If I have to pick two teams it's going to be the 49ers and the Broncos. SanFransisco controls the line of scrimmage with that offensive line. Their line is what makes them so good. The Broncos have a desperate Qb who happens to be one of the best and don't think he won't make throws that look dumb but work to drag them in to the championship. Manning could fit a lime through a lemon drop. That;s just my call though.

Steelers fall off big time due to age, Tomlin is on hot seat or fired, finish 7-9

Perhaps, but they really look it recently.  Their running game is falling behind, their line is a mish-mash, their receiving depth is poor (Plaxico Burress?  come on), their defense is still getting old (one of these years it's going to ring true), and I'm not really sure how long Polamalu can keep them relevant on his own.  

As for the Tomlin part, I really say this because he seems to have been on the hot seat a lot as of late.  Didn't the owner say another 8-8 season wasn't acceptable?  I think if he goes 7-9 he's at least feeling the heat.  Not to even say he deserves it, just might be a good coach caught in a bad position.

Also, margin of error.  Say they sweep the Browns, pick up another win, boom, they have a winning record.  I don't think it gets much better than that, though, they play some good teams and their division is getting more competitive.

Not sure if you're aware (since you mentioned his name and all) but Plax is hurt and his career may be over.
