Ok guys now that most of free agency is over and the draft is over we have a pretty good idea of at least the training camp rosters for the teams. So who do you predict as the Division Champs and I believe it is 3 wildcards now. I kick this off.

AFC East - New York Jets
AFC North- Baltimore Ravens
AFC West - Kansas City Chiefs
AFC South - Indianapolis Colts
Wildcards- Tennessee Titans, Buffalo Bills, Cleveland Browns

NFC East - Dallas Cowboys
NFC North - Minnesota Vikings
NFC West - Arizona Cardinals
NFC South - Atlanta Falcons
Wildcards- New Orleans Saints, San Francisco 49ers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
This post is accurate.

you're right, way to early...but, I must say, snow balls chance in hell with a lot of your picks

Alright, my hunch is that the Patriots are tanking then I'm going with this:

AFC East: Bills
AFC North: Ravens
AFC West: Chiefs (1)
AFC South: Colts
WC: Steelers, Broncos, Dolphins

Big Ben coming back puts them back in the playoffs. Colts Jonathan Taylor should tear it up. Broncos and Dolphins made a lot of roster moves.

NFC East: Cowboys
NFC North: Bears
NFC West: Seahawks
NFC South: Bucs (1)
WC: Saints, Niners, Eagles

NFC seems more cutthroat and will likely come down to who stays healthy. A factor in both but choosing between NFC teams feels like flipping a coin. Picking teams who upgraded at QB to make it to the playoffs in the Bucs and Bears. I think Wilson more than Jimmy G but the Niners are stacked.

The Pats are to good defensively to tank and I doubt Bill would do that imo

Miami with Tua coming off injury is not ready, I'm not sold on Tannehill long-term and the Browns have been slotted in the playoffs so many times and not made it that they need to make it for me to believe it (I think they've had a nice off-season, though, and could play sleeper). I want to put the Colts in the AFC South but I'm just not sure what Rivers has left. I almost can't believe I'm leaving the Patriots out but Belichick might be trying too hard to show how smart he is with Stidham and no backup plan doesn't seem smart.

NFC East: Cowboys
NFC North: Vikings
NFC West: Seahawks
NFC South: Saints
WC: Bucs, Niners, Packers

I wanted to put the Eagles in but when Wentz gets his inevitable injury I'm not sure they have enough in a tough NFC. Foles just doesn't look like a guy who is any good outside of Philly.

no it wasn't. you can't claim "joke" after you've been busted, tracksuit boy.

Damn it, it's not a tracksuit. It's what we in the know call fall athletic attire.

Really? Bro...
...and that's with the NFL a combined 21 wins over .500.
It also the NFC West going 29-11 in non-divisional games. That would be the 2nd best combined record posted by any division in the 8 division era. :scratch:

Possibly some pre-season exuberance and/or covid cabin fever involved. :noidea:

I don't trust Drew lock.

And you have a difficult division

We were way better off with Lock than anyone else last year. 3-8 without him, finished 7-9 with him. And the Chiefs are difficult. The Raiders and Chargers have a lot to prove before anyone should be calling the AFC West as a whole "difficult."

IMO I see the Raiders as a team on the rise, 1 of 3 imo, and should take a big step forward this year.

I might overrated the Chargers but their no slouch either. Great passing attack. Elker is a underrated back. There defense is young and they need Oline help.

I think if I was ranking the power level of the AFC West, it'd be in 5th place so I wouldn't say its that tough. My guess is the Broncos will go 3-3 in division.

It does come down to Drew Lock's development. He won some games last year but I think he has to actually improve for them to make the playoffs. Denver absolutely has a roster that should be competing for the playoffs.

So you don't trust Drew Lock, who is 4-1 as an NFL starter, yet the Chargers passing attack is "great," with a rookie who has never played a down. That seems fair.

I fully expect Tyrod Taylor to be the starter for the Chargers for at least the first half of that season.

I do hope that they roll with Herbert week 1, though.
