What playoff teams in 2011 will not be there in 2012?

[G-men]

So what your saying is you are not concerned with losing defense... nor are you grasping the fact that Brees could get injured?

Regardless... Bears and Panthers replace two of the NFC teams IMO, prob in their own division, Falcons and Lions out

:cano:

Brees could get injured, but luckily he never gets touched and no I'm really not worried about losing defense. New DC plus a lot of good FAs were brought in. Besides they certainly couldn't be worst than last year. Difference between what the Saints have and what the Colts were at is that Peyton was already hurt. They were literally praying that he would be healthy.While Breesus is just mad they haven't gotten his contract done yet. Other than that the O is just fine. Losing Payton sucks, but with him being injured for a portion of last season the team(primarily the O) already knows how to handle their business without him.

Nothing about the Saints defense screams difference maker.

Ahhhhh, but it is nice to have Lofton and Hawthorne on board now.. that's
definetly gonna make Vilma not only expendable, but just automatically got
the Saints younger and even faster on defense (LB speaking that is).. all I can
really say now is thank gawd GW's gone, who woulda' thought he'd pull those
kinda' shenanigans.. & same goes for Vilma for that matter, get him outta
there, he's old, banged up, due big coin, cest'lave mf'er!!.. Yeah, the Saints
outta the playoffs, that made me laugh.. Now, if they can just Brees signed
long-term (and I mean really, doesn't he deserve at least 23M ??) then every-
thing else will fall into place.. *bookmarking thread*.. yupyup!

:tellmemore:

it is INEXPLICABLE to believe that a young team with a growing QB, very powerful three headed monster run game, solid line, and an improved defense and special teams could win 10-11 games after winning 6 last year, NEVER happened before ever in the NFL. Losing a close game is still a loss, which was done all last year, but its not like saying the 2-14 hopeless Jimmy Clausen led Panthers are a playoff team.

San Fransisco

Is there logic behind this? :wtf2:

 

[Juggernaut]

Texans and Bengals

was 50/50 on the saints

 

[RosettaStoned]

Texans, Steelers, Bengals, and Saints are my picks.

The AFC North annually sends two teams. Last year they sent 3. If they don't that means you think the West and the East are sending two? Or you think the south sends the Titans and Colts?

 

[GoChargers]

I think AFC West will send 2, North 2, South 1 East 1

 

[Houston]

Only reason I think Falcons will miss is because there are so many potential playoff teams in the NFC that someone will have to get boxed out.

Probably The Giants

:cano:



Homerism aside, not sure why so many people picked The Texans in this.

How did this work out?

[Warner2BruceTD]

Blick, Buzzman, JayDizzle, longhornfan, Maestro, MmmmBeeeeer, Primetime, Raidersabc123, Rylo, shag773, St. Francisco, Swarley

^voted against Peyton Manning

That'll teach you.

I told my friend IRL that the Steelers and Jets would miss the playoffs.

Glad I didn't write that here :dd:

 

[NAHSTE]

I intend to return to laugh at everyone who thinks the Saints are in for a down year. Like the offense is gonna disappear :dd:

No, but that defense might.

My picks are still a possibility outside of the Texans (although I do think the Bungles are going to make it). Didn't think my Lions would return to ol' Lions form. Last time I get hopeful after one good season. :smh:

Champ is such a dumbass.

 

[G-men]

If the Bengals make the playoffs, I will have gone 0-3 in this poll. I'm actually a little shocked that I picked the Saints over the Falcons. I'm pretty sure that in the playoff prediction thread I had the Falcons winning the division.

 

[dave]

Can we make this poll public so all 41 of you can eat a bag of Geno Atkins sized dicks

Fair enough. I picked the Bengals, so I eat the bag of dicks ... but you're a Bengals' fan, you were already sucking their dicks.

 

[Villain]

I failed at that poll. :jonesy:
