Nero Cain · Post Post #5 (ISO) » Sat Jul 26, 2014 12:35 pm

tbf, McFadden and MJD could limp to the endzone a few times...

Konowa · Post Post #6 (ISO) » Sat Jul 26, 2014 2:55 pm

Who else is going to be last then? KC? San Diego?

Crossing fingers here that RG3 bounces back after last year. We have the tools around him on offense, just depends on his knee and whether or not he can plant and throw.

Nero Cain · Post Post #7 (ISO) » Sat Jul 26, 2014 3:16 pm

p sure he was kidding but I do think KC lost some important pieces. but still not enough to tank. SD is middle of the pack but they have some really nice pieces, my only worry about Denver is that they will implode like the eagles did in 10 or whenever the had "the dream team".

pickemgenius · Post Post #8 (ISO) » Sat Jul 26, 2014 9:45 pm

kansas city is shit and San Diego can choke any time any place.

There's only one good team in the division.

Please let this happen! I would enjoy this playoff run so so much. Only way to make it better would be to swap San Fran in for New Orleans.

I made drunken picks last year, and I put Denver in the Super Bowl. So I need to get drunk to predict these again.

Also, this thread needs more Christian Ponder.

PJ. · Post Post #12 (ISO) » Tue Jul 29, 2014 10:29 am

Kansas city got worse and they weren't very good last year. They largely benefited from a tremendously weak schedule.

Framm 18 · Post Post #13 (ISO) » Tue Jul 29, 2014 1:47 pm

Scary thing for my team (Cowboys), is we have a horrendous projected Defense and can still go 8-8 this year...

Predicting 5-11 at best though.

Pffft like we could actually pull off a 5-11 season.

That might actually convince someone in that organization that they're fucking awful at their jobs.

Nope, we're destined for 8-8.

The injury of Sean Lee is gonna hurt Dallas alot this year

Konowa · Post Post #16 (ISO) » Wed Jul 30, 2014 7:02 am

Isn't this the second time in three years that he has had a season ending injury early in the season?

Starring in yet another failed third down conversion.

Not anymore than it has the past 3 years or however long. If anybody was counting on him to play, they're an idiot.

PokerFace · Post Post #22 (ISO) » Fri Aug 01, 2014 6:31 am

I'm not high on the steelers I am low on the rest of the afc north and on KC
I put PIT > DEN because winter sucks

Me neither. Rams had the best draft. Their front 4 on D could become new 4 horsemen

Lee was good last year. Someone in Dallas will need to step up especially since Ware is gone too
