JUNIOR BRO SEASON RECAP
Sean three-peats again... YAWN!!! For those of you scoring at home, this makes six out of seven years that the "surfy" remained in Hayward. Better luck next year bro. I wanted to take a few moments for a year in review. I ran across my preseason predictions, so I thought I'd list the actual order that teams finished with my predictions in perentheses.
NFC WEST: St. Louis 14-2 (1), San Francisco 12-4 (3), New Orleans 7-9 (2), Atlanta 7-9 (4), Carolina 1-15 (5)
I was pretty dead on, but missed by one spot on surprising San Francisco and struggling New Orleans.
NFC CENTRAL: Chicago 13-3 (5), Green Bay 12-4 (2), Tampa Bay 9-7 (1), Minnesota 5-11 (4), Detroit 2-14 (3)
Failed miserably with Da Bears, and Tampa and Detroit didn't meet expectations.
NFC EAST: Philadelphia 11-5 (1), Washington 8-8 (3), Arizona 7-9 (4), NY Giants 7-9 (2), Dallas 5-11 (5)
Like the West, this division was pretty predictable... predictably lowsy!
AFC WEST: Oakland 10-6 (2), Seattle 9-7 (3), Denver 8-8 (1), Kansas City 6-10 (5), San Diego 5-11 (4)
Didn't get any part of the order right. I whiffed completely on Denver. Oakland collapsed down the stretch, but the rest of the division played to NawFuL to capitalize.
AFC CENTRAL: Pittsburgh 13-3 (3), Baltimore 10-6 (2), Cleveland 7-9 (5), Tennessee 7-9 (1), Jacksonville 6-10 (4), Cincinnatti 5-11? (6)
Remember the Titans? I'd like to forget this division. I'm glad they're breaking it up. My big misses were the Titans and Steelers, my hits were the Ravens and Bengals.
AFC EAST: New England 11-5 (5), Miami 11-5 (2), NY Jets 10-6 (3), Indianapolis 6-10 (1), Buffalo 3-13 (4)
New England came out of nowhere and Indy had no defense and key injuries.
I'll be back later to run down surprises and disappointments and playoff rankings.
