Predicting Each Game

[LikeABosh]

My vote for luckiest team goes to Atlanta

Bears easily

Bears maybe because they got to play Seattle in the divisional and the Falcons had to play the Packers. But things like that 49er not taking a knee after that interception and that Saints kicker missing a 29 yard FG in OT makes me consider them lucky.

Bears because there is no way they deserved to win the division, get a bye, and make it to the NFC Championship game by only beating the Seahawks at home.

Luckiest team for me is Seattle. Home playoff game after winning 7 games (and not deserving to win even that many).

Bears were easily the luckiest team. They played Stanton, Webb, Thigpen, and Clausen. Then got a bye, in the playoffs, only to take on a 7-9 seahawks team.

Why does everyone have us losing to NO?

Why does everyone have us losing to NO?

I'm in the camp that thinks no one would beat us on that night.

But with that said I think there are a couple teams that could give us a game and possibly even beat us in that atmosphere (Thurs night opener at Lambeau in primetime,first game as Champs in front of an electric hyped crowd ect) and the Saints IMO are one of them.

I don't think they will beat us but if they did I wouldn't be totally shocked.

Yeah what a bunch of negative douche bags.



I know you are being sarcastic but I would actually prefer to go into the playoffs with at least 1 loss.


Too much pressure if you go 16-0.

Plus out of 19 games you are bound to lose at least 1 of them,be it simply having a bad day or a fluke or whatever.I been saying that for years (way before 2007) about the possibility of a team going 16-0 in the reg season and that's exactly what happened to the Pats in 2007.Out of 19 games the Pats were bound to have 1 bad day/bad game and it just so happened to be in the Super Bowl.

Don't need that extra pressure and get that loss out of your system before the playoffs.

Good point. Gary Anderson's perfect (almost) season also comes to mind. He never missed a FG or PAT all year long....until the NFC championship game...

[El Duderino]

Never really a big fan of breaking things down game-by-game.

I'll predict 11-5 and another late playoff push. Either NFC Championship or Super Bowl.

No kidding

Not only is there the factor of each NFL season having numerous teams who end up being quite a bit better or worse than expected, there is also the injury factor from week to week which can have a sizable influence on games.

Take for random example the Miami game last season. Before the season i'd guess about 95 percent of Packer fans would have predicted a Packers win, but because of injuries, especially to Matthews, our pass rush was non-existent. In the Lions game Rodgers got hurt.

I never do these each game predictions before a season starts, but if i had to guess our final record assuming Rodgers and Matthews don't miss more than one game at most, i'd go either 12-4 or 11-5.

LMAO shyt was comedy.

I just watched highlights from last season and our play action with Grant back and a stronger Starks will be literally unstoppable, for realz. Therefore my only prediction:
