Bold NFL Predictions

2dueces2dueces Posts: 6,252 ✭✭✭✭✭

Post them if you got them
Buffalo starts 5-1 wins 11 games and dethrones
The Patriots as the AFC East Champions
NFL futures have the Bills +/- 6.5 wins. They beat that easily.
Atlanta +/- 8.5. I predict over. So many injuries last year if they stay healthy the give the Saints a run for the division.
Panthers tank.
Arizona’s college offense and K. Murray are a bust.
Baltimore and Jackson go the way of the wing T and finish at the bottom of the division.
SF bounces back to respectable after a rash of injuries last year.

    I think Buffalo does get better but not enough to take over the AFC East. The Cowboys will win the division IF they get Zeke back. The Bengals will be the same old Bengals until they get rid of the last piece of the puzzle that has been holding them back, yes the Red Rocket himself, they finally smartened up and dumped Marv Lewis now they just need to rid themselves of Andy Dalton. Other than that I really can’t think of much, the NFL is such a crap shoot

    Brownies win 10 games, the AFC North AND a playoff game

    had to take a moment and think about this one, but here's another prediction for the upcoming season.....

    the # of times stevek informs us that Philly made the right decision by letting Foles go > the # of exclamation marks dime uses > the # of times darin looks at his Mahomes cards > the # of times coin tells us he's not watching any games but really is > the # of times i pout and leave the boards because PSA disgusts me, only to return because the depth of the NFL conversations with my girlfriend extend no further than how hot Jimmy G is > the # of times bronco says something serious

    You know i like Brady and wish him well.

    But just a bad feeling that a career ending injury is going to set him down. i'm not saying it will be this season, but for sure he is pressing his luck with possibly getting a debilitating injury at his age, which could affect him for the rest of his life.

    I think he may wind up regretting that he didn't retire after last season.

    All that money and fame doesn't do much good if you can hardly walk, from an injury which could have been easily avoided.

    Just my two cents and it's not even worth that.

    I have to agree with perk when he posted the pic of Brady. He's still the best until proven otherwise
    and so far nobody has come close to proving otherwise.
    Mahomes hasn't done anything yet, I don't count MVP trophies.
    And the good thing is I've heard Mahomes interviewed many times and he agrees, what he wants is Super Bowl wins.

    Well it all depends on why he continues to play, I’m 50/50 on it, one part of me thinks he wants all the passing records while the other part thinks it’s all about his love of the game. If it’s ALL about his love of the game then who can blame him for doing what he loves? Do t get me wrong if it were me I’d have retired with Gronk. Either way he is still on top of his game. @Darin Mahomes has a great chance of being the face of the future for the NFL, hopefully he continues to play at such a high level, if he does his chances of getting a ri g are damn good 🍻

    Points understood, and all valid points.

    There is also the danger of CTE. A blow to the head at age 42 is a lot more harmful than the exact same blow to the head at age 22. An older body just simply can't rebound from punishment the same as a younger body. It's just part of the aging process.

    I just hope Brady doesn't find all this out the hard way. But perhaps from your opinions about Brady, which i agree with, sadly he may find out the hard way.

    It would be a shame to possibly see Brady in his 50's a physical wreck, and/or slurring his words as he speaks. Without debate, that is the risk he is taking by continuing to play the brutal game of football at his age.

    Agreed on your points as well. He definitely seems aware of his age and potential physical limitations as well since he smartly dives to the ground every chance he gets when he feels he is going to get sacked. But all it takes is one hit so there is absolutely a risk with continuing

    So the only predictions are Tom Brady won’t play forever and about the Browns and Patriots? Are there no other football fans besides Bengals, Patriots, Chiefs, Eagles and Bills? Any predictions about the Cowboys? I think they still win their division but I also think the Giants are improving. Redskins are still a mess. Eagles rely on Carson but can he get healthy and stay healthy?

    All that money and fame doesn't do much good if you can hardly walk, from an injury which could have been easily avoided.

    Just my two cents and it's not even worth that.

    Well it all depends on why he continues to play, I’m 50/50 on it, one part of me thinks he wants all the passing records while the other part thinks it’s all about his love of the game. If it’s ALL about his love of the game then who can blame him for doing what he loves? Do t get me wrong if it were me I’d have retired with Gronk. Either way he is still on top of his game. @Darin Mahomes has a great chance of being the face of the future for the NFL, hopefully he continues to play at such a high level, if he does his chances of getting a ri g are damn good 🍻

    Points understood, and all valid points.

    There is also the danger of CTE. A blow to the head at age 42 is a lot more harmful than the exact same blow to the head at age 22. An older body just simply can't rebound from punishment the same as a younger body. It's just part of the aging process.

    I just hope Brady doesn't find all this out the hard way. But perhaps from your opinions about Brady, which i agree with, sadly he may find out the hard way.

    It would be a shame to possibly see Brady in his 50's a physical wreck, and/or slurring his words as he speaks. Without debate, that is the risk he is taking by continuing to play the brutal game of football at his age.

    Hey, it's Brady's choice how long Brady. The reason doesn't matter. Give it a rest. ;)B)

    To be fair Jon, it’s been an ongoing story about Brady and when he will hang the cleats up lol

    I know Paul, but it get's old. Aren't you tired of explaining the same old thing over and over? It's like someone on here isn't paying attention. ;)

    Without debate, Tom Brady is by far the most recognizable active player in the NFL today, arguably in all of American team sports up there with LeBron James. And he's coming off a Super Bowl winning season.

    When Brady puts together a few bad games, without question the media is going to jump all over him, with stories about should he now retire because of his age.

    Ten or more years from now if Brady develops CTE or is in constant pain because of playing too long in the NFL, there will be continuous news stories about that as well.
