[RP-29]

GB is a great team at Lambeau 1 loss max is my prediction, unless Rodgers gets injured and I doubt they lose at Tenn in a shootout. Rodgers vs Mariota at the helm hmmm

I don't foresee them losing in TEN either, but the Pack always seem to inexplicably lose one game on the road to a middling team they should beat and that one fits the bill.

 

[Bolts]

I agree with 5 of the 8 division winners. The Titans would be a big shock to me, I think they're the worst team in that division but are getting better. The NFC East and AFC West are toss up's, I could see the Giants and Raiders winning them but I'd probably pick the Redskins and Chiefs right now.

I'm high on the Titans as well. They have a better QB now plus they will have a better offensive line as well as two new RB as well as a couple new WR as well. They drafted a pass rusher out of Clemson Dodd as well as Byard a DB. We have a good GM they just hired here who came from the Pats the first two things he did was bring in RB Demarco Murray and then traded our number one pick to the Rams for a boatload of draft picks including some in 2017 meaning that in 2017 Tennessee has two first round picks.

[PatsFan2003]

Prepare to be annoyed then because the Broncos will be standing at the top of the division again when all is said and done!

It's going to be interesting to see if they keep up the same defensive intensity they had last year for the entire year.

Sanchez will still suck.

Who's with me?

NE 11-5 if Brady sits 4. Otherwise I see them at 12-4.
Spot on for the AFCN
I don't see Tenn getting 10 wins. 9 max but that's enough to win that div.
I like Oak as well but not for 11 wins. They make the p/o's not sure who takes that div this year.
Dallas at 9-7 maybe they get 10? They win the div if they can keep on the field not on IR or suspended.
GB takes the NFCN but Minn challenges if GB doesn't get 12 wins.
Carolina takes the NFCS. My high school team could challenge that div.
AZ takes the NFCW. I think they finally break through. They tie Sea at 11-5 win the division by tie breaker.

 

[PatsFan2003]

AFC North
(1)PIT (12-4)
CIN (8-8)
BAL (7-9)
CLE (5-11)

Pittsburgh does look really good this year but the AFC North is a tough division and they tend to beat each other up. I think both Cin and Bal will win more than 8 and 7 wins each.

I really believe that the Titans are moving in the rt direction. However - I really can't see them winning 10 games like the OP believes. Your schedule is pretty brutal & you are coming off a 3 win season. You have a lot of new and young players - this should work well but typically involves a learning curve that will contribute to several losses. Your division is also improving so you will have a tough time winning the majority of those games. Your 2017 picks also won't help you this season.

I would not mind being wrong about all of this, but I would not get my hopes up too high for the upcoming season - beyond that - yes - the future looks bright.

The AFC South is hilarious. The Texans are the most talented team and its not even close. Of course you are a NYG fan so 1st place is no shock. OBJ is going to have a career year for the Giants to do anything. Just like the Cowboys only one option. No depth. The Browns winning more games than the Dolphins is pretty funny.

 

[Clayton]

The AFC South is hilarious. The Texans are the most talented team and its not even close.

I tend to agree still if only because they are the only team sporting a defense. I think the Jaguars have talent but it would take major, major strides for their pass defense to even be considered average.

 

[Born to run]

The Chargers will do better than 6 and 10

I doubt the Raiders get to 11 and 5 this year

 

[cdumler7]

I tend to agree still if only because they are the only team sporting a defense. I think the Jaguars have talent but it would take major, major strides for their pass defense to even be considered average.

Throw in for the Jaguars they have so much youth it would be a minor miracle to see it all click together very quickly. Usually young teams like that are a year or two away from really being that team that competes. I do like the Jaguars potential but more next year not this year.

Tennessee I can't see them jumping 7 games this year. Throw in last year it wasn't like a lot of the games they lost were close. 7 of the losses were by 2 scores and many of them just complete blow outs. So while I see them as an improved team I still see them as a team in transition.

So to me this entire division comes down to the Colts and Texans. For the Colts they need Andrew Luck to be Andrew Luck of 2014 where he was a top-7 QB in the league if they stand a chance. For the Texans they just need Osweiler to be a bit better than what they had last year and to avoid the injury bug.

 

[PhilSimms11]

I admit, my picks are out there, but man, I have to do that. I can't just carbon copy what happened last year. Plus, I do like to go against the grain. If it works I look like a genius and if it doesn't well hell, it wouldn't be the first time. Who thought these things would happen last season?

AFC North
BAL (5-11)
CLE (3-13) (just kidding)

AFC South
(1)HOU (9-7)

NFC East
(1)WAS (9-7)
DAL (4-12)

NFC North
(1)MIN (11-5)
(2)GB (10-6)

NFC South

Not saying the NFL doesn't change quite a bit. Rarely do we see a team like Tennessee though go from one of the worst teams in the NFL to one of the best that quickly. Indianapolis did it after drafting Andrew Luck but they also played in possibly the easiest division in football at that time. Most of their wins came from within the division. The AFC South doesn't look like the cake walk of the last few years. You throw in they are playing the AFC West and NFC South that you have 2 different teams making it to the playoffs. So the idea of them making it to 10 wins would be quite the feat considering the schedule.

For the Texans they just need Osweiler to be a bit better than what they had last year and to avoid the injury bug.

I think the best case scenario for Tennessee is what happened to Oakland last year. The Titans were so bad last year that mediocrity would seem like a huge step forward.

Jacksonville is a totally different story. They could be the next Seattle Seahawks or just the Tampa Bay Bucs in terms of what they are bringing next year in terms of talent. I might move them up a bit once I see everything in motion but I think they are in the wrong division and that might sound silly since the AFC South has been so weak for so long but I think it could be pretty good next year. I might adjust the Jags up to 9-7 or 10-6 if I get more confident in Bortles and their defense. It all looks really good on paper but I was never big on Dante Fowler or Prince Amukamara and Ramsey might need a year.
