2011 NFL Predicitons
Don’t Say I didn’t Tell You
2011 marks the beginning of a shift in power in the NFC from the East to the West. With the two divisions squaring up head to head this season I predict the West will carry a better than .500 record against the fabled East. Now that teams like NY and Dallas are falling on hard times like their brethren Redskins, it’s easy to see why so many people are picking the Eagles to win the East. And although I side with them, don’t expect the over hyped Eagles to post better than a 9 win season, they are definitely a one and done in the playoffs. We’ll get our first look at East vs. West this Sunday when Philadelphia drops their opener on the road in St Louis.

SuperBowl XLVI
Seattle Seahawks vs. New York Jets
Why did I pick these two teams to win conference championships? First is the coaching. More than any other active coach with the possible exception of Bill Belichek, Rex Ryan and Pete Carroll are better than anyone is at getting their players to buy in and believe. With Seattle’s new offensive line talent I predict a lot of inconsistent play early like we’ve seen in the preseason, but as they grow together they’ll bond and become one, giving Jackson time to prove he’s an elite quarterback like the Vikings thought he was, all while Marshawn Lynch goes Beast Mode over the NFC.
