M-to-M's 2011 NFL prediction

Right, we've had a few weeks of preseason done and we are 7 days away from the Packers and the Saints throwing down at Lambeau so I've decided to stick up my division standings predictions. No playoff predictions just standings.

NFC East
Eagles
Giants
Cowboys
Redskins

NFC North
Packers
Lions
Bears
Vikings

NFC South
Falcons
Saints
Buccaneers
Panthers

NFC West
Cardinals
Rams
Seahawks
49ers

AFC East
Patriots
Jets
Dolphins
Bills

AFC North
Steelers
Ravens
Browns
Bengals

AFC South
Texans
Colts
Titans
Jaguars

AFC West
Chargers
Chiefs
Broncos
Raiders

I know the AFC looks like I could of copied someone else but I think the Chargers and Colts could be run right to the end. I think the Colts will start slow and could easily lose the division on head to head with Houston.

In the NFC I've gone for the Eagles, Packers, Falcons and Cardinals with the WC teams coming from Saints, Giants or Lions.

Here's mine, fairly close to yours...

My division winners are all the same except I think I might pencil in the Jets over the Patriots.

'AFC West
Chargers
Broncos
Raiders
Chiefs'

LOL.
Sure we wouldn't be the first team to go from 1st to last but I don't see us as being weaker than last year and I don't see massive improvement in the other three....

I meant to put the Chiefs 2nd

Question.

Why the Panthers over the buccaneers?

Wasn't convinced the Bucs were legit last year and I think the Panthers will do decently behind a strong run game and p. good defense. Not .500 good or anything, but decent compared to last year

no way are we finishing bottom of the AFC West, I'm not expecting miracles by any means but we're better than Denver. Also if we win more games outside our division we may even pip the Chiefs to 2nd

You lost your best player, one of your best offensive players and your best O-Lineman.

Not to mention Jason Campbell is playing QB

The Panthers have a terrible pass defense. Nobody at DT, nobody at CB, nobody at safety.

They also have an inaccurate rookie playing at QB with only one good receiver to throw to.

Im not saying the bucs are great, but the Panth.ers are awful.

Awesome to see someone else who thinks the Broncos will be a big surprise this year. I have a feeling we may miss out on the playoffs to the chargers but we're a MUCH better team than last year.
