Playoff Team Predictions - Pre Draft

Post by Primeminister »

This is the too early predictions for next year’s playoff teams. Who do you have in the AFC and NFC? Remember that 7 teams make it now.

AFC:

Bengals, Bills, Titans, Chiefs, Broncos (W) Chargers(W), Raiders (W)

NFC:

Bucs, Packers, Cowboys, Rams, Cardinals (W), Lions (W), Saints (W)

W= wildcard

The fact that your NFC predictions don't include the 49ers but includes the Lions is ludicrous

Sure, why not.

AFC:

Bills, Steelers, Jaguars (I said what I said), and Chargers win the divisions.
Chiefs, Broncos, and Patriots get the Wild Cards.

NFC:

Cowboys, Packers, Bucs, 49ers win the divisions.
Lions, Rams, Washington Skin Commanders get the Wild Cards.

To get ahead of it: I don't love the Colts and I think the Titans have a Tannehill problem. I think we've all forgotten that Trevor Lawrence is a generational talent. Doug Pederson has already proven he's a top-notch "turnaround" coach. The talent on the roster is better than people think it is. They have a creampuff last place schedule. I think they're this year's "I didn't see that shit coming" team.

I should mention that I put a hundred hard-earned dollars on the Jags to win the division at +1000, so my money is where my mouth is.

Oh, and the Lions I talked about in the other thread, but I think Campbell has the makings of a great coach. Like the Goff-Swift-Hock trio. Love St. Brown. Love their line. Like what they're building on defense, though they're still a ways away. If they hit on those 3 picks between 2-34 with guys who help them immediately, they're good enough to win 11 games in the bullshit NFC.

I'll go first.

Doug Pederson has entirety too much work to do to expect the jags to make the playoffs in a loaded AFC. This is an evaluation year and I'm expecting them to get closer to.500 than they have in years.

Tannehill does hold back what could be a really good offense, but I'm not betting on the Titans to not make the playoffs. You shouldn't bet against any team that can run the ball and play defense in that respect.

Not high on the lions to finish better than the Cardinals. The QB drama in Arizona will be forgotten in six months.

AFC north? Why is it the Steelers? The one team in the division that doesn't have a quarterback? Cincinnati or Cleveland.

Chasing the Lombardi Trophy- Bucs, Rams, Packers, Chiefs, Bills, Bengals,

Heads and cleats above the rest. Very good, but not the best- Titans, Ravens, Broncos, Cowboys, Cardinals, 49ers

Picture blurred. Fate becomes clear by Thanksgiving- Dolphins, Raiders, Browns, Chargers, Vikings, Eagles, Saints, Lions

Probably won't succeed. May need a roster or coaching staff overhaul- Steelers, Patriots, Colts, Panthers, Bears, Redskins

Off the air by mid October, in the draft's top ten by mid December- Jaguars, Jets, Texans, Giants, Falcons, Seahawks

Sonofabitch. I didn’t even realize that. The NFC is such a mystery it’s hard to imagine another team in (except the Saints who I loathe).
