NFC isn't as bad as you think!

Every year I hear people say, "the NFC sucks." "Compared to the AFC the NFC is a joke." "The NFC is weaker."
I want to go on record that I disagree. Well kind of. Let me explain.

If you rank the top 8 teams probably the AFC gets 5 out of the top 8.
Steelers, Colts, Patriots, Jets, and Ravens all are very strong right now.
And really who knows who's coming out of the NFC to the Superbowl??? (Well I think my Packers are coming out and winning the Super Bowl but everyone else has no clue)

Overall the AFC right now is much stronger than the NFC but when it comes down to the best playing the best and especially one game, winner-takes-all, Superbowl don't think that the NFC isn't legit.

Things that make you go hmmm...(thank you Arsenio Hall)
1. Argument 1: NFC West the worst division in football.
I hear the arguments that the NFC West is the weakest and I definitely agree. But is the AFC West that much better? Denver, KC, SD, and Oakland are battling it out. Seattle and KC/Oakland are leading those divisions with a 5-4 record.

2. Argument 2: Elite vs Elite
Who cares about those bad divisions what about the elite teams.
Well the Super Bowl favourites (after 9 weeks) is Pittsburgh who got killed vs the Patriots who everyone has written off.
The Jets are very good but I would not say they are great...their D hasn't lived up to the hype this year and they got WR problems (can't catch). Sanchez again is good but not great.
I like the Ravens this year and their offense is clicking...the problem is their D isn't good enough to win a championship (sorry Ray Lewis but it's true).
The Colts? Well Peyton, even though he was voted #8 overall on the best players in the history of the NFL on the NFL network, has played bad for him the last 2 weeks. And honestly can their D hold up...I don't think so. Injuries have really taken a toll on Indy as well.
The Patriots as good as they have been are not as great as they have been.
There is no one unbeatable here. My prediction right now is the Steelers make the Super Bowl.

3. Argument 3: Look at the Super Bowls they don't lie.
Super Bowl facts:
In the 90's the NFC won 8 out of 10.
From 2000 to 2007 the AFC won 6.
But in the last 3 years, the NFC has won 2 Superbowls. The Giants beat the undefeated Patriots and the Saints beat the Colts. The one the NFC loss is the great catch by Steelers WR Holmes vs the Cards where they came from behind to win!

In my humble but obnoxious opinion, I think the Packers (yes I am biased but they are legit and to all the Bears fans Cutler is brutal), Eagles (Vick puts them to another level - please don't get hurt), Giants (the Cowboy game is only 1 game if you disregard them you got to throw out the Steelers as well from last week) and even the Saints (sorry Bucs but you aren't good enough yet) could all hold their own vs the AFC and even win the Super Bowl this year. And the Falcons could be on this list too. Except for the fact that Matt Ryan doesn't play well on the road. Right now they leading the NFC (7-2) so they would be playing at home for the whole playoff run and the Super Bowl is in Dallas (another dome) so maybe they are legit.

Again in a one game, winner-takes-all, Superbowl I like the chances of the NFC not only to compete but win making it 3 out of 4 years.

The NFC isn't as bad as you think!

Bold NFL Predictions


Here it is...My bold predictions, what you have all been waiting for!

Owens has more fantasy points than Ochco
Felix Jones ends the year with less fan pts than M.Barber.
M.Austin ends the year as a top 3 overall WR.
B.Jacobs score 10 or more td’s this season.
Peyton Manning ends the year below Rodgers, Brees, Brady and Romo in fan pts.
Wells will not finish in the top 25 RB’s at the end of the season.
B.Favre ends the year as the #9 or lower QB because he throws a lot more INT’s.
S.Smith (Car) finishes as a top 10 WR.
The NY Jets will not end the year as the best fantasy def (3rd or lower).
Cooley finishes in the top 6 TE’s.
Ryan Matthews is a legit top 15 RB this season.
Finley ends the year as a top 3 TE.
Kolb ends the year as a top 7 QB.
Welker scores over 140 fantasy pts this season.
Portis will be at top 20 fantasy RB.
McFadden at the end of the season is still a BUST.
R.Brown plays a full season without missing a game due to injury.
Turner is a top 4 RB, D.Williams is in the top 7 and S.Jackson doesn't make the top 10.
A.Johnson finishes the yr with 20+ fantasy pts more than the next WR.

Here's some more WAY out there predictions:
- Lions beat the Bears in Week 1
- Chargers lose Week 1 to the KC Chiefs
- the Seahawks win their division.
- Baltimore goes to the Super Bowl.
- Dallas and GB are in the NFC Championship game not the Saints.
- Green Bay wins the Super Bowl!!!

- I get a life and stop making BOLD INSANE PREDICTIONS.


Of course I could be wrong but I doubt it!

NFL season KICKOFF Vikings @ Saints


The season is finally here!!! No better way to start it than with the NFC Championship game where the Saints won by a field goal and went on to win the Super Bowl.

Let's here your predictions...

I am saying Vikings win by 7 (31-24) because the defense is better than the Saints this game. Favre throws 2 int's but Brees gets sacked 5 times and throws an int too. Jared Allen is the games MVP.

Can't wait for Thursday night!!!

3 Fantasy Football Leagues DRAFTED!!!

All 3 of the inter locked leagues have joined up. Let's see how everyone did:
