With the NFL around the corner I thought I would put down a few predictions.
First and foremost, the Minnesota Vikings. Don't expect much from Favre, especially without Sidney Rice. Everyone says "Can Favre survive the season and the playoffs", in which I have always responded "Has he missed a game yet?". Everyone was wrong about that one last year, but I wouldn't be surprised if we saw him get taken out. If that happens, you can say goodbye to any playoff hopes. As a fan, I am hoping for another magical ride.
Other teams that I like are the Texans, Falcons, Ravens and Packers. The Texans have a high flying offense and an up and coming defense. If Arian Foster can be the man, they could go far in the post season. I love the Falcons offense, with Matt Ryan throwing to Roddy White and Michael Turner crushing -- I think the Falcons surprise people. Joe Flacco has Anquan Boldin now, but the defense is a little older. I still think that the Ravens could be the top team in the AFC at the end of the season. The Packers are loaded and should easily win the NFC North. Rodgers is one of the best QB's in the NFL and they have a solid D.
Playoffs:
NFC: Cowboys, Falcons, Packers, Cardinals, Vikings, Giants
AFC: Patriots, Ravens, Texans, Chargers, Jets, Steelers
It's hard to imagine Peyton Manning not in the playoffs, but I can't leave the Jets out -- And I love the Texans in the AFC South.
Super Bowl Prediction:
Steelers 31
Falcons 17
Atlanta comes out of one of the weakest NFC playoff brackets of all time. The Steelers have the experience and they survive one of the deepest AFC playoff brackets of all time. Pittsburgh win the big one again.
