Dave's NFL 2009-10 predictions

[DoubleDeuce]

I'm a Titans fan and I even think they're only going 11-5. Tougher schedule, and loss of Big Al will knock two wins from the team.

But we win the AFC South, not the Colts, Gonzo.

Your homeristic reverse jinx isn't going to work Woy.

Not as bad as I thought this list would be.

The NFC North will be the most competitive division this year IMO.

You can make a case for the Bears, Packers, or Vikings to take that divison.

The Steelers are going to be even better this year, and the return of Brady should make it interesting.

Colts or Texans IMO take AFC South. As long as Schaub stays healthy I think they're actually the best team in that division.

Completely disagree though about Forte, saying he isn't a franchise back. That kid is fucking amazing IMO.

No, that's honestly how I feel about our team. We've gotten stronger on offense and slipped up a little on defense. We play Miami, Pittsburgh, and San Diego - three of the AFC's conference champions last year, and add New England to that list too.

I'm not a dumbass homer like a lot of the people on this board, and I like making my predictions realistic. That being said, the Titans go 11-5, win the AFC South and lose to New England in the AFC Championship.

The Titans making the AFCCG is pretty homerish.

This and saying the Jags will miss Fred Taylor is my biggest gripe. MJD and Matt Forte are highest echelon players.

 

[Esjay]

Good stuff dave.

I'm not sure how I'd predict the AFC South yet. Probably have Tennessee and Indy finishing with the same record, though.

 

[Boss AZ]

The Titans making the AFCCG is pretty homerish.

While I don't think the Titans will have the same success in the regular season like last year. Saying that isn't too "homerish" considering they were a probably a delay of game away from it a season ago.

Yea I went there ....:crazy:

It's funny too because K Star is probably the biggest homer the world has ever seen.

 

[Woy]

The Titans making the AFCCG is pretty homerish.

Considering we were a Chris Johnson injury, a delay of game penatly, and LenDale White and Alge Crumpler fumbles away; it's not homerish whatsoever.

Colts or Texans IMO take AFC South. As long as Schaub stays healthy I think they're actually the best team in that division.

Talk to me when Houston breaks that 8-8 barrier.

 

[SHOGUN]

LOL @ Carolina beating Arizona in the playoffs. Not with Jake Delhomme at the helm....

And I'd be happy if the Cards won 7 games this year. Super Bowl hangovers are never good.

Addai? What has he ever done to be considered anything but average?
Brown a rookie. Won't be overly judgmental until he actually plays an NFL game that means something.
Gonzales has proven nothing.
Clark and Wayne obviously legit.

While I dislike Addai as much as the next guy it has to be pointed out that his best two seasons came when he was sharing the carries and playing in short bursts . It's no coincedence that a player with injury problems in the past gets hurt when he is asked to take on the full load like last season . Now Brown is in Indy , the Colts should (if all goes to plan) be able to play the three runningbacks in short bursts (Mike Hart being the 3rd) . Lets also not forget that argubly Addais best season came as a rookie , so there is hope for Brown coming right in and doing well (system wise) .... but I agree that with every rookie comes some caution.

I mean I would put him ahead of slightly average , he rushed for 1,000 yards as a rookie with 7 tds at 4.8 YPC then followed that up by making the pro bowl the next year with similar stats and 5 more tds . Last year he was just comppetly banged up . He is also a great pass blocker with good hands . I wouldn't say he's near the elite group of HB's though .

Gonzalez has proven he is a good slot WR in the NFL , how he takes to the outside will be a different story .... but by the looks of pre-season we will be mixing up where the WR's line up and Gonzales showed on a few occasions that he can get open deep from the outside .

I could argue with Harrisons extreme fall off that the WRs are improved this year , especially if Collie steps up like they expect him to .

Broncos at 7-9? lol.

Raiders at 2-14? lol.

 

[MVP1991]

Broncos at 7-9? lol.

Raiders at 2-14? lol.

Who cares both are going to suck and won't make the playoffs.

 

[Aso]

Who cares both are going to suck and won't make the playoffs.

So those records should be flipped.

 

[Primetime]

So those records should be flipped.

Raiders 7-9?

:gtfo:

 

[Aso]

Raiders 7-9?

:gtfo:

Yes first season without double digit losses in a long time, i hope.

 

[Primetime]

Yes first season without double digit losses in a long time, i hope.

Keep dreaming.

 

[Gonzo]

LoL. Raider's still aren't breaking 5 wins this year. Double-Digit losses...Like always.

I'm just happy... I just dont see green bay doing that though. I mean, dont get me wrong, I have a hell of a lot of respect for that team and their talent. I even believe that they'll beat out Min and Chi for the North but I dont see them going that deep. Although they're capable, if they do I hope they win it all.

 

[KoRnStARr]

It's homerish to say the Titans can get to the AFCCG this year when they failed to do so last year, with a better team. The Steelers and Patriots have IMPROVED...
