How about we do this.
If this Eagles win less than 6 games here I'll never come back to this site again.
Whata boob.

I disagree on a handful of things. The Texans won't be that good, the NFC South wont be that good, and the NFC Central won't be that bad.

I'll make one. The New England Patriots will have a gaudy record and will win the AFC East.
And then lose their first playoff game. Someday, Mr. Brady will show his age. That year is this year. The gaudy record comes from playing in a mediocre division.

Bills aren't a 4 win team, imo. They can be counted on for their usual very consistent 7 or 8 and no playoffs. A lot will hinge on Mr Glass (Sammy Watkins)

Ill play. (I cant go into record thing, I appreciate the work sdm3 but I know Id mess up the records and blah. So Ill put who I think wins the division, the wins and loses THEY have, the order the division goes, and Ill highlight my wild card teams.) AFC East New England Patriots 14-2 * Miami Dolphins Buffalo Bills New York Jets North Pittsburgh Steelers 11-5 * Cincinnati Bengals 10-6 *WC* Baltimore Ravens Cleveland Browns South Houston Texans 10-6 Indianapolis Colts Tennessee Titans Jacksonville Jaguars West Oakland Raiders 12-4 Kansas City Chiefs 10-6 *WC* Denver Broncos Los Angeles Chargers 1. New England 2. Oakland 3. Pittsburgh Steelers 4. Houston Texans 5. Kansas City Chiefs 6. Bengals (IDK tbh. Im not sure who gets the last spot. I feel okay 1-5, but Im lost on 6th) NFC East New York Giants 11-5 Dallas Cowboys 10-6 *WC Philadelphia Eagles Washington Redskins North Green Bay Packers 12-4 Detroit Lions Minnesota Vikings Chicago Bears South Atlanta Falcons 11-5 Tampa Bay Buccaneers 10-6 *WC* New Orleans Saints Carolina Panthers (What a division!) West Seattle Seahawks 10-6 * Arizona Cardinals Los Angeles Rams San Francisco 49ers 1. Green Bay (Weak division is why) 2. NYG 3. Atanta Falcons 4. Seattle Seahawks 5. Dallas Cowboys 6. TB Playoffs (NFC) GB and NYG get a bye TB Over ATL Sea Over Dallas TB over GB NYG Over Sea NYG over TB AFC NE and Oak get byes Pits Over Cin Hou over KC NE over Hou (Again) Oak over Pits NE over Oak UH OH! NE Vs NYG Vol 3 NE - 31 / NYG - 24 PS - This is a ROUGH DRAFT, Im not even that certain or confident with these pics. I wanna see how things shape up in mini camp, look at the rookies, see how preseason goes, and Ill have a better feel. Sometimes a rookie can come from no where and go boom. Could Watson be Dak 2.0? Will Zeke be suspended? Will ATL have SBowl blues? Will Bradys age FINALLY catch up to him? Will Derek Carr be the same? Will Luck break through. Will the Titans start to look good? How bad will the Jets truly look? How will AP do in New Orleans? Will all the offseason moves, does it help NE as much as we think? What happens to Dallas's defense? How bad will Chicago look? How will Minnesota look with officially no AP? So many things to look for.

Vikings:
With 4 of last year's losses at 6 pts or less (one in OT), a championship defense, a year under Bradford's belt, 2 new free-agent tackles, upgrade at WR, Latavius Murry, and Dalvin Cook (who some are calling the next Warrick Dunn). I say-
10-6
Besides, they play the AFC North and the NFC South this year.

If you have 5 minutes, give this a try: playoffpredictors.com/Football/NFL?L=Aw18ZXTt-DFOS1b0ckAYou literally just pick the winner of every game this season, it'll configure the standings for you as you go. That's how I ended up with mine, some of which are admittedly a little unrealistic. I don't really think every team in the NFC South will have winning records but I do think that division is loaded. And the AFC South really is better than a lot of people are giving it credit for.

Patriots take the lead with a minute left with a Brady td pass to Gronk, but Matty Ice throws a td to Julio with 15 seconds left. Brady has one last chance from his own 45, hits Brandin Cooks but he is brought down inside the 10 as time expires. AHFan blames Brady for choking the game away.
