Mavric Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Less than a month to the start of the "other" kind of football. Mainly wanted to brag a little as I'll be in attendance at the first NFL game of the year as my Broncos host the Ravens on Thursday Night Football. I hear the Broncos may have worked on their end of game defense at some point during the off-season. The Huskers have been represented in 20 straight Super Bowls. I'd say Amukamara & J. Brown (Giants), Bradley (Broncos), Crick (Texans) and Koch (Ravens) have the best chance of continuing the streak. Didn't realize until I was looking at the list the the Redskins have 5 former Huskers - Carriker, Compton, Gomes, Helu and Paul. Quote Link to comment

The Dude Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 My early predicitons: AFC East - Patriots AFC North - Steelers AFC South - Texans AFC West - Broncos Wildcards - Colts, Ravens NFC East - Cowboys NFC North - Packers NFC South - Falcons NFC West - Seahawks Wildcards - Bears, 49ers Redskins, Vikings, and Bengals are the playoff teams from last year that will miss the playoffs this year.

The Dude Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I could be way off in the NFC, but the AFC seems fairly predictable. The AFC South is between Houston and Indy, and the North is a bit of a toss up, but the East and West are locks. On the NFC side all the divisions are kind of up for grabs. Saints could sneak up and take the South, Packers aren't necessarily a lock, East is a crap shoot, and the West is between Seattle and San Fran. Quote Link to comment

As a Steelers fan, it pains me to say that this year, I believe, the division belongs to the Ravens or Bengals. I just don't think Pittsburgh has done enough to upgrade either side of the ball.

I'm with you, I think the Bengals take the North this season. We're kind of in a rebuilding mode right now, with alot of questions on the OL and someone needs to step up and take Wallaces' spot. Stat on ESPN today said the Steelers ranked 23rd in the NFL in plays of 30+ yds, that's going to have to improve. Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Yeah I agree with you, I don't think the Steelers will show any significant improvement, but they might not have to. If I trusted the Bengals, I would pick them to win the division, but I don't. And I think the Ravens will take a step back this season. Edit: the Bengals are the team I want to win it, but like I said, I just don't trust them yet. Quote Link to comment
