OK OK I know it's early, but I have football fever.
It's that time already?!
Ok These are my picks.
x=division champ
y= wildcard
AFC East
x1. New England (Brady back at the top of his division) 10-6 to 11-5
2. Miami (They are still a 9-7 team, and will miss the playoffs again) 8-8 to 9-7
3. Buffalo (They will be on the rise this year. Might finish .500!) 7-9 to 8-8
4. N.Y. Jets (No better than last year. Maybe worse?) 2-14 to 4-12
AFC North
x1. Cincinnati (Palmer back hopefully for the first game. Slow start, but strong finish) 11-5 to 12-4
2. Pittsburgh (Toothlessberger never the same. But the defense will save them like they did in the Super Bowl) 9-7 to 10-6
3. Baltimore (McNair will be average as he has been his whole career) 8-8 to 9-7
4. Cleveland (Still at the bottom! WOOHOO!) 6-10 to 7-9
AFC South
x1. Jacksonville (Blue collar team will tough out the division) 10-6 to 11-5
y2. Indianapolis (Will make the playoffs, but lack of a running game will hurt them) 10-6 to 11-5
3. Tennessee (Below average team) 6-10 to 7-9
4. Houston (Bad team) 3-13 to 4-12
AFC West
x1. Kansas City (Larry Johnson will take them to the promise land) 11-5 to 12-4
y2. Denver (Still got some gas left in the tank for a playoff run) 10-6 to 11-5
3. San Diego (Rivers needs time to adjust, but LT will help them make a playoff run) 9-7 to 10-6
4. Oakland (Another REAL bad team) 3-13 to 4-12
NFC East
x1. Dallas (They will win the division, only because Owens will be on his best behavior) 11-5 to 12-4
y2. New York (Another year of experience for Manning. They make the playoffs again) 10-6 to 11-5
3. Washington (Undecided here. Can be real bad or real good so Ill go with average!) 7-9 to 8-8
4. Philadelphia (Making of a bad team here folks!) 3-13 to 4-12
NFC North
x1. Chicago (another king of a weak division) 12-4 to 13-3
2. Minnesota (Not sure about these guys. Hard to read how they will be) 7-9 to 8-8
3. Detriot (I am going to go with Detriot as being a below avg team that starts the year at 3-1) 5-11 to 6-10
4. Green Bay (Will you just retire Brett!) 3-13 to 4-12
NFC South
x1. Carolina (Again at the top!) 10-6 to 11-5

3. Tampa Bay (Will miss the playoffs because they are average) 8-8 to 9-7
4. Atlanta (Vick cannot save them. He is less useful as he gets older) 6-10 to 7-9
NFC West
x1. Seattle (Weakest division in the league by far) 12-4 to 13-3
y2. Arizona (Might make a little noise. Playoffs?) 9-7 to 10-6
3. St. Louis (below average team in a bad division) 5-11 to 6-10
4. San Fransisco (another bad year with a bad QB) 2-14 to 3-13
