Initial reactions to my 2010-11 NFL season predictions?
Let me preface this by saying I know how stupid and ridiculous it is to even begin thinking about making this type of prediction so far in advance without going through the draft, training camp, retirements, coaching changes etc. etc. I was bored in class last week and I slowly drafted this up. I made an excel spreadsheet and I went across giving a W or L in each matchup. I looked up which divisions are scheduled to play each other in 2010 and I also matched conference opponents by their division rank this season so I have all of the opponents right.
I’ll post my results and then I’ll make some comments about them. The number in the bracket denotes playoff seeding.

My first reaction was disparity. In my predictions I have 7 teams with 3 or fewer wins; this season there were only 3 such teams. In my predictions I have 12 teams with 5 or fewer wins; this season there were only 8 such teams. In my predictions I have two teams going 15-1; this season the best regular season record was 14-2, followed by 13-3. When deciding who wins and who loses I looked purely at the teams on paper. I obviously couldn’t factor in injuries, winning streeks, momentum, home field advantage, playoff implications, resting starters etc. so I think that all these account for some of that disparity.
Anyways, as I said I was bored and decided to throw these together. I don’t actually think any of this is going to happen and I wouldn’t put five bucks on these predictions. Comment as you wish.
Oh, and here is my playoff bracket:
NFC:
Falcons @ Cardinals – Cardinals
Vikings @ Cowboys – Vikings
Cardinals @ Packers – Packers
Vikings @ Saints – Saints
Packers @ Saints – Packers
AFC:
Chiefs @ Steelers – Steelers
Texans @ Patriots – Patriots
Steelers @ Colts – Steelers
Patriots @ Chargers – Chargers
Steelers @ Chargers – Steelers
SUPERBOWL
Steelers 24 – Packers 17
I agree with the Chargers. They are a solid team and aren’t really losing any key components.
The Panthers I had losing to – Steelers, Ravens, Bengals, Bears, Giants, Saints, Saints, Falcons, Bucs. I guess I may have been a bit biased since I’m a Bucs fan 
Hamilton – I stopped taking these seriously the minute I started drawing them up, but I guess I jumped on the Jamaal Charles bandwagon.
And Benji, the Maple Leafs will win a Stanley Cup before the Cowboys play on Super Sunday.
Replace Steelers with Chargers and you have my vote.
The Packers do have a lot of promise. Good young quarterback, etc. I can see them doing well.
