Well mfers, the new season is right around the corner so it's time for picks and predictions. Here are my bold predictions for the season:
- The Madden curse will continue this season causing one of two things to happen: 1. Calvin Johnson is gonna get fucked up and that's gonna cause him to have a bad season or 2. Matt Stafford's gonna get fucked up and cause Megatron to have a bad season. Either way, Calvin's gonna have a bad season.
- Peyton Manning will struggle for at least the first half of the season. People seem to take for granted that Manning had played with a lot of those guys in Indy for 8 and 9 and 10yrs. He had chemistry with those guys that was out of this world. He's not gonna have that right from the start with his guys in Denver. PLus, the players he have around ihm now or nowhere near as good as the players he had around him in Indy. All these "experts" are saying the Broncos are gonna win the division, but I don't think that's gonna happen for 2 big reasons: 1. The heart of that defense, Brian Dawkins, is no longer there and 2. The brains of that defense, Dennis Allen, is no longer there either. Without that defense playing lights out last year, they don't even sniff the playoffs. Combine that with my prediction that Manning will struggle early and I doubt they win the division.
- Tom Brady will have his worst season ever. I'm not saying he's gonna have a bad season, but this will be his worst season. I've been watching NFL replay lately and I noticed the lack of fire from Brady towards the end of last season. He got outplayed by both Eli and Joe Flacco. I think the team might make it to the playoffs because the division is pretty weak, but I don't think Brady will have a great year like he normally does.
- Jake Locker is gonna come in for Matt Hasselbeck at some point this season and gonna be a beast. I'm not talking about being a beast statistically, but he will play very well and lead his team to some wins. I've noticed that every time he comes into the game and plays, the team moves the ball. They don't always score, but they move the ball very well. Last season, I was real impressed with what I saw from him when he came in to the game. He made some rookie mistakes but overall played very well. This leads me to my next bold prediction.
- The Titans will win the AFC South. The Colts and the Jags are gonna suck this year and the Texans lost a lot and Schaub still isn't 100% yet. I think this year the Titans win the AFC South.
- Mike Shanahan is gonna get fired before the end of the season. Shanahan has been on the hot seat and if RG3 don't pull out some early victories, Shanny might be getting an early exit. It's not Shanny's fault tho. The Redskins added some nice big name players for RG3 to throw the ball to, but didn't add what they needed to add, O-line help. I fully expect to see RG3 running for his life early in the season. All that pressure and him being a rookie equals bad news for Shanny. not everyone can be Cam Newton.
What are some of yall's predictions?
