Re: Official 2011-12 NFL thread
Your conference standing predictions are almost identical to mine. I'd say the Eagles beat out the Cowboys (wild card) for the NFC East, drop the Colts to 3rd (Peyton is going to be out for a long time) in the AFC South, and I don't think the Raiders will be last in the AFC West.

My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
Re: Official 2011-12 NFL thread
Sad face. It might be a long season with Peyton out. Not doing much in the way of divisional analysis or the like, but this is how I'm calling it:
AFC North- Ravens
AFC West- Chargers
AFC South- Colts
AFC East- Patriots
NFC North- Lions
NFC West- Rams
NFC South- Buccaneers
NFC East- Eagles
Super Bowl- Eagles over Ravens.
It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.

And a year later, a few weeks after winning his second consecutive Super Bowl, that man was canned by Satan Jones. Hence why I put Dallas second in the division.Originally Posted by Strike For The South

Re: Official 2011-12 NFL thread
Very sad about Manning, he was the most fun player to watch in the league.
The Bengals aren't that different from the 10-6 playoff team...but they aren't that different from the 4-12 team either
Dalton is at least as good as Sanchez, and when we won it was by running. Our offense this year is basically an "if andre smith improves the o-line, if the new OC is better, if AJ green is good*, if Dalton can play well enough".
The only loss on defense is Joseph, otherwise our front 7 is better.
*yes
(not shown: the two other plays where green was wide open by Dalton didn't throw it quite right)
Re: Official 2011-12 NFL thread
I'm surprised by the Dallas over Jets picks. I personally don't think the Eagles are going to be as great as a lot of people expect. They'll still be good no doubt. I think Dallas and the Eagles will be close for the first spot in the NFC East. I agree with pretty much all of GH's picks, but I think the Patriots and Green Bay go to the Super Bowl. The Patriots will win it though in the end.

That was awesome.
What a last play too; that poor Saint trying to make it to the endzone as Packers seemed to cascade over the line at him.
