The NFL season is finally over. So how did I do in my predictions that I posted just before the season?
AFC North
Me Final
Ravens Steelers
Steelers Bengals
Bengals Ravens
Browns Browns
What I got right:
Well, the Ravens indeed were back and the division came down to the wire for all three of the top teams. I also predicted the resurrection of the Steelers. Cleveland was once again in last, as I thought, but they still did much better than most thought…and yes, Manziel is indeed a joke.
What I wish I could take back:
Not much. The Bengals were better than I thought they would be, admittedly.
AFC East
Me Final
Patriots Patriots
Dolphins Bills
Jets Dolphins
Bills Jets
What I got right:
The Patriots winning the division (yawn). The Jets sucking (duh). Geno starting, then giving the reigns to Vick, then starting again.
What I wish I could take back:
The Bills actually didn’t come in last! Crazy.
AFC West
Me Final
Broncos Broncos
Chargers Chiefs
Chiefs Chargers
Raiders Raiders
What I got right:
Broncos win. Chiefs fall back. Rivers had a good year, statistically. Raiders came in last.
What I wish I could take back:
Nothing. The only reason I wasn’t perfect is because the Chiefs held the tiebreaker over the Chargers. Maybe I regret saying the Raiders have potential…
AFC South
Me Final
Colts Colts
Titans Texans
Jaguars Jaguars
Texans Titans
What I got right:
Colts win. Jags don’t come in last. Bortles became starter for Jax before halfway point.
What I wish I could take back:
Predicting 6 wins for Jax and 8 for Tennessee. Also, Houston was way better than I think any of us thought.
NFC North
Me Final
Packers Packers
Bears Lions
Lions Vikings
Vikings Bears
What I got right:
Packers win. Lions finish ahead of Vikings.
What I wish I could take back:
Holy moly…not sure anyone saw the Bears being as bad as they were. I certainly didn’t.
NFC East
Me Final
Eagles Cowboys
Giants Eagles
Cowboys Giants
Redskins Redskins
What I got right:
Redskins coming in last. RGIII is a whiny baby. Eagles stayed competitive.
What I wish I could take back:
Not trusting the Cowboys…the one time I under-hype them, that’s when they live up to the talent they have on their roster. Good for them.
NFC West
Me Final
Seahawks Seahawks
Cardinals Cardinals
49ers 49ers
Rams Rams
What I got right:
Everything. The final standings, the Seahawks continuing to win, the Cardinals finishing ABOVE the 49ers, Kaepernick falling off. Patting myself on the back quite a bit here.
What I wish I could take back:
Nothing. #NailedIt
NFC South
Me Final
Saints Panthers
Falcons Saints
Buccaneers Falcons
Panthers Buccaneers
What I got right:
Not a lot. I said that I could see the Falcons, Panthers, and Bucs all going 4-12 as well as I could see them go 10-6. Cam Newton is still overrated. Turns out the Panthers were as bad as I thought they were…it’s just that the rest of the division was worse.
What I wish I could take back:
Thinking the Bucs could go 8-8. They were clearly the worst team in football by week 3. Thinking the Saints would run away with the division. Thinking the Falcons would have a revival. Thinking the Panthers would cease to be the luckiest team in football. Basically everything.
