yep and that's their issue
I wasn't around for the great colt & giant teams but I'm aware how special Johnny U & Y A were

I thinks its one thing to be aware of something and another to hold a grudge. I think a LOT of people do hate the Cowboys but not nearly as many young people.

 

[scoutyjones2]

5) Broncos 11-5
6) Chiefs 11-5

Denver 24 Tennessee 10
Green Bay 38 Philadelphia 7

Divisional

Seattle 30 Green Bay 24 OT (More give and take from 2 years ago)
Oakland 16 Pittsburgh 10
New England 30 Denver 10 (Siemen will be the Patriots defense bitch)
Dallas 13 Atlanta 27 (I don't trust the cowboys secondary against Juilo Jones)

Conference

Like i said earlier. I'm switching it 12-3-1

Forgot about the Arizona tie

AFC

1) Patriots 13-3--As much as it pains me to put this here they are clearly in the driver's seat and just hard to find too many losses on their schedule for the 2nd half of the season.
2) Broncos 11-5--A tough AFC West means they will hurt each other when it comes to overall record
3) Pittsburgh 10-6--Big Ben should be back either this week or next. Cincy just looks to be struggling to finish off games and the Ravens are heading in the wrong direction in a hurry
4) Tennessee 9-7--I have been impressed lately as they seem to have finally gotten some things together and look like the most complete team in the AFC South
5) Chiefs 11-5--I think there might be some interesting tie breakers happen in the AFC West.
6) Raiders 10-6--First winning season in forever. Good for them but they picked a tough year to look like a better team.

NFC
1) Dallas 12-4--Very impressed with this team. Offense that is really clicking and a defense that is playing much better than I would have ever thought.
2) Atlanta 11-5--Another somewhat surprising team. Defense is coming around a bit and the offense just continues to go crazy.
3) Seahawks 10-5-1--I honestly still just don't quite believe in this team. The offense just doesn't look great but the defense will obviously keep them in most games and I do believe in Wilson's ability to pull out plays when the team needs him to most.
4) Green Bay 10-6--Another team that is tough to gauge. You look at the roster and think they should be a dominant team but that just isn't always the case. Minnesota is heading in the wrong direction though so will give this to Green Bay.
5) Philly 10-6--Another somewhat up and down team but great defense and an offense that has signs of being explosive at times.
6) Detroit 10-6--A bit of a surprise pick here but I think they have been playing pretty good football at times and really have a great chance to close the gap with Minnesota playing them 2 of the next 3 weeks.

2016 NFL midseason predictions: Championship Sunday results

Maurice Jones-Drew is a very smart man.

Edit* He's smart in his NFC AFC Champions but his Super Bowl pick his a box of rocks.

 

[tducey]

AFC: Pittsburgh, Denver, New England, Houston, Kansas City, Oakland
NFC: atlanta, Minnesota, seattle, NY giants, Dallas, Washington

Pittsburgh to win the Super Bowl.

4) Tennessee 9-7--I have been impressed lately as they seem to have finally gotten some things together and look like the most complete team in the AFC South

Since I have the same list except this one, I'll throw in my 2 cents.

The Titans are the most complete team in the AFC South but that doesn't really mean they are complete. I think the Titans have a bad D and a bad special team unit. The Texans really only have their defense but their defense is the best unit of anything in the whole division so you're basically choosing between Texans D and Titans O and the Texans already have a one game lead due to a head to head win.

Titans remaining schedule: @ Chargers, Packers, @Colts, @Bears, Broncos,@Chiefs, @Jaguars, Texans.

9-7 would be very impressive of the Titans imo

You might be right on that. They are the team though that has impressed me the most from a very bad division. I don't rate their defense as bad as you do and the offense seems to be coming into their own. I just don't trust that Texans offense or their ability to play on the road for them to hold onto this lead. Maybe 8-8 wins that division this year or even 7-9. It wouldn't shock me. I just have a tough time picking a team to have a losing record making the playoffs but it has happened. Just looking at the Texans remaining schedule it does look a bit easier but they do have 5 road games and a couple of tough home games against the Chargers and Bengals. Maybe 8-8 is where I see them finishing this year unless Osweiler can all of a sudden get it together.

8-8 might get it done for either the Texans or the Titans. Colts look like they are in the 6-10 range and the Jags schedule is one of the hardest in football.

I was merely picking the Texans because they won the previous meeting which means the Titans almost have to win that last game they play.

Yeah my guess is it will come down to that last game. Just depends who you think will win it. I think the Titans can do enough to finally win this division again. Crazy to think that probably every AFC West team would win the South.

 

[rmilia1]

I think 8-8 wins the AFC South

 

[Great Dayne]

Cowboys
Packers
Atlanta
Seahawks
Philly
Redskins

Pats
Steelers
Chargers
Texans
Broncos
KC

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

You're not that crazy. I think the Chiefs win the division though

AFCW should be a fun race to watch.

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

you're crazy

You might be right. I might have to move the Cowboys down a couple of spots.

LOL...was just responding to how you started the post...
But honestly, I have no problem with people lowering the Cowboys. Obviously they are playing well right now, but it's half a season...

I know, just messing. I do think the Cowboys take the top seed. Things seems to be just about in order for them. Solid o-line (could the Hawks borrow a couple), solid wr's, stud rb, and getting great play from Dak. Defense is looking good which was a question mark going into the season. Team is looking good and tough to beat at the moment.

I don't think anyone in the NFL is winning more than 11 games. Dallas has one loss but still has 4 tough road games ( @ Pitt, @ MIN, @ NYG, @PHI). I think you probably see 2 teams win 11, 2 or 3 teams win 10 and the others win 9 to get it. Just can't see anyone other than MAYBE Dallas getting to 12 but they're road games are just brutal
