The raiders number intrigues me. They may sign a ton of free agents and that could propel them easily above 5 wins in the crappy afc. But they dont have a qb Texans I could see winning at least 9 as well. Rams are another team that i think can get over 6.5.

[PkrsBcksGphsMqt]

The Giants tend to follow up horrible years with good/lucky years, so I could see them managing 8+ wins.

I could also see Caldwell going up in flames in Detroit so taking the under there could be a good bet.

Colts should get 10 wins as long as Luck is healthy too, that division is terrible.

I doubt 9ers AND Seahawks get 11 wins each. But who knows.

I don't know how we are projected as high as we are when we haven't signed a single free agent of note.

The regular season is not the problem. Its when we face SF or Seattle in the playoffs.

Last time we played Seattle we beat them both in the regular season AND the playoffs. We damn near beat the 49ers last year with half of our team crippled.

Yup. We almost won that game with defensive lineman having to play OLB.

Didn't we "lose" to Seattle last time in the Fail Mary game?

Funny almost never counts.

You're right, I hope to shell out $30 million in guarantees to a bunch of external Free Agents to hope that we play certain teams in the playoffs and said player is healthy for that game AND he is the difference in the win.

Absolutely need to get better but there are diminishing returns sometimes. We're good enough to get into the playoffs with a high seed. We've won the playoffs recently. Get there again healthy with better drafted defensive players and maybe a FA or 2 sprinkled in and it is doable.

I'd rather have this ten year window of being a top 3 NFC team (with luck of TT drafting well, maybe the best several times) than confining our window to 3 years by going all out on FAs. I still contend we'd have 0 SBs since 2010 with a frenzy of spending and we'd be in much worse shape.

Of course, I'm fine with a bit of spending. We'll see if that happens.

[MickeyDavis]

I'd take the Bears and Falcons under, Arizona and Jax over.

Yes, we "lost" but every fan in the NFL including Seattle fans know we won that game which was my point.

A co-worker is leaving for Vegas next Monday and this just reminded me to give him money to put down on the Packers next season. It's crazy how these threads pop up when you need them.

I think the Packers could win 12+ games next year. Hopefully we avoid the number of injuries of last year and I feel like the Lions are going to be their usual inconsistent self and the Bears will be worse next year. Vikings are the wild card

Cantor runs the books at the Venetian, Palazzo, Cosmopolitan, Tropicana, Hard Rock, Palms, M Resort, and Silverton. That are other casinos that use the same points/spreads/numbers as Cantor. And other casinos have their own service.

When are we going back?

[jimmybones]

I don't know how we are projected as high as we are when we haven't signed a single free agent of note.

Honestly, with how some fans talk you'd think we're top 5 worst in the league, not tied for 4th for projected wins.
