If you take the entire team being healthy as a given (which he did in his original statement), I think you can call some locks (especially if you aren't guaranteeing the health of other teams). For example, if NE stays healthy, they are a lock to win the AFC East, which isn't a shocker. I'd even say that if both teams stay healthy and postseason suspension-free, one of NE or Denver is a lock to win the AFC (NE would have won it last year if either Talib or Gronk didn't get injured or Ridley didn't fumble on the play he also got injured).

well look on the bright side, you can only go up hill from here
Ya maybe we can go 0-16 and get clowney..
I never wanted Genosmith, he's a worse diva version of Rg3... His career will be like Vicks in the falcons, flashes of athleticism, but inconsistency, and injury prone.
Bigger problem we have no weapons around a qb. No te, no wrs, no running game a weak right line.

You're looking at the NFL like it's franchise mode on madden with injuries turned off for only your team. The truth is, you don't know if NE wins the Superbowl or even the AFC if Gronk stays healthy. You don't know if the Bills or Miami are better than they look. Denver might not be as good as they look. Unexpected stuff will happen. No Locks.

Very, very not true. Often, settling is just more convenient and better in the long-term financially and PR-wise. If you're innocent and want to go to trial, you have to pay a team of lawyers. That shit isn't cheap. It also involves a long media spectacle that would likely destroy one's career.
Sorry but when the rich defendant settles with the dirt poor plaintiff that means he's guilty.

Denver isn't as good as they look. Losing dumervill hurt. And 6 games on Miller will hurt. But That O is still great.
I like Houston with Cushing, Watt and now Reed.

But do you support murder? If the answer is no, then O.J. Simpson and Ray Lewis should have been targeted first. And in case you haven't noticed, we had proclaimed Ravens fans before I posted.

Or the dirt poor plaintiff was just looking for an easy check, which she got. If the rich defendant goes to trial, even if that person is proved innocent, their reputation is already ruined (see Ray Lewis). And in a situation like a professional football player's where the longer a court case lasts the less able he will be to earn his paychecks (playing in games), it's almost always better to settle (even if innocent). The risk is greater for the rich person (even if they're innocent) than the dirt poor plaintiff (who not only has nothing, but has nothing to lose because they're the person doing the accusing).
As for whether or not he is actually a rapist, this still doesn't answer my initial question to you. What does being a Steelers fan have to do with supporting rape? If you shop at Wal-Mart and their CEO is an accused pedophile, does that make you a supporter of pedophilia? It's a slippery slope at best.

Ray Lewis just drove the getaway car man

If right next to that Wal-mart was a store with the exact same prices that didn't have a CEO accused of being a pedophile and I deliberately went into the wal-mart knowing this, yes it would.
There's 32 teams in the NFL. Some are better than others at not having scumbags.

Alright bro, if you wanna be technical there are no sure things in life. It's not a lock that any of us will survive the next 5 minutes. But in casual conversation I take 99+% likelihood to be a "lock".
Things I've learned.
1. It's just a game, have fun.
2. Don't waste time on people who think you are scum. Ignore them and keep scum hunting.
3. Don't take everything so personal.
4. Tunneling sucks (unfortunately I can't seem to stop)

So you're the type of person to judge people and institutions off of accusations alone? If you are, then there is no merit in pursuing this debate any further. You can continue this discussion by yourself.

Ignoring the concept of RGIII staying healthy...
Yeahno.
Atlanta, Seattle and SF are an entire notch better.
Green Bay and their porous defense still win a majority of the time against Washington.
And besides, no one is coming out of the NFC East without some serious bumps and bruises.
Ski mask? Check! Sawed off? Check! Guilty conscience, fear of death? Check! Check! Check!
We should do playoff division winners afc/nfc.. and wild cards..and superbowl predictions
