It's a love/hate relationship I have with the NFL. Parity often means I look back at my predictions from the start of the season and wonder "What the hell was I thinking?" or "Who knew?" So I'll definitely try...

And just for fun, here are some...
MISCELLANEOUS PREDICTIONS -Chad Johnson gets his first fine in Week 2 for showboating -Tomlinson tears an ACL in Week 1; out for the season; Chargers finish 3rd -Larry Johnson misses 4 weeks with an injury; Priest Holmes kicks ass in his absence -Seahawks slump; Holmgren loses job as a result -Falcons and Joey Harrington shock the world by NOT SUCKING! -Lions shock no one by SUCKING; Millen keeps his job -Rex Grossman lasts 6 weeks before getting benched for Brian Griese -Vince Young plays the whole year and plays well, effectively ending the Madden Curse once and for all -Randy Moss makes his Patriots debut in Week 3 -Byron Leftwich gets benched in Week 5; subsequently demands trade (EDIT: Wow, I knew Leftwich would go down, but not THIS early! I thought he'd at least be named starter for Week 1.) -Raiders find their new QB when Culpepper finds his old stuff
NFC Wildcard: Eagles over Cowboys, Seahawks over Panthers NFC Divisional: Bears over Eagles, Seahawks over Saints NFC Championship: Bears over Seahawks

West Seahawks (4) 49ers Rams Cardinals

I LOOOOVE all the people picking the Falcons to finish fourth in the NFC South. I love Michael Vick and I'm not a big Joey Harrington fan but I don't know who decided that their switching places suddenly makes the Falcons the worst team in the NFL.
Also, Saints? Seriously? Not even making the playoffs this year.

smark/net attack Advisory System Status is: Elevated (Holds; June 18, 2006) While the switch from Cena to RVD should alleviate some complaints, the inevitability of the belt's return to Cena (note where Summerslam is this year) and the poor initial showing by the new ECW are enough to keep the indicator where it is for now. The pieces are in place, though, especially on RAW, for improvements to be made to the IWC's psyche in the near future.
Originally posted by Reverend J ShaftDon't really have predictions of my own (after all, I'm a Lions fan - what's the use?), but I thought these predictions were rather insightful.
You're right! Those were quite insightful! I especially liked Eli Manning being likened to Princess Leia.
CRZ had to edit my profile and close my table for me before, but I did this one all by myself with Frosty's help!
