Default Predictions - First Pass!

Well, started messing around with my 2008 predictions last night. So, just for the heck of it, I'll throw 'em out there to hear your thoughts and to give my detractors their daily grist for the mill! LOL!

I like our boys @ 12-4 this season, maybe even 11-5. Good enough to win the East again.

There are a couple of games I picked as wins (vs. Steelers, @ Dolphins, @ Bills) that I think we could lose.

I also think we are 50-50 to beat the Broncos, but they always play us tough, so I put it down as a loss.

Seriously, I am most interested in your predictions, thoughts, prognastications, and comments, if you're so inclined.

Have a great day!

16 days and counting!

So basically, you're giving the Pats an "L" when they play a halfway decent team...except for the 'Hawks? I think that's a bit unfair.

16-0.





OK, fine, probably somewhere between 14-2 and 16-0, that's a little more realistic

The top 3 AFC teams amongst each other last year...

Pats: 3-0
Chargers: 2-2
Colts: 0-3

Care to elaborate on why you having us losing to both teams this year?

Also a Monday night home loss against a mediocre team seems strange. Though I'm assuming you think will have the post-Chargers came banged up hangover, which is fair.

I predict they lose in another epic shootout at Indy & then suffer the hangover effects the following week against a young, up & coming Bills team.

I'd say 13-3 with a 14-2 season as an outside possibility. I'm just not one of those guys who goes through the schedule and puts Ls and Ws next to individual games so I can't give you that, but I don't think the Pats have a tough schedule other than the travel part of it and are still the best team in the NFL.

Besides, most of the better teams we face have a lot of issues/question marks. The Chargers have to worry about the health of Gates, Merriman, and even Rivers. The Colts have to worry about the health of Manning and whether Harrison, Sanders, and Freeney can rebound from their injuries/surgeries. The Seahawks have real questions at WR and a lame duck coach. The Jets have a lot of new parts and a lot of them are risks.

19-0

We beat the Chargers in the AFC Championship at Foxboro and in a rematch of last year's SuperBowl, beat the Giants to win Super Bowl 43.

Unfinished Business.
