Menudo Posted December 28, 2005 Author Share Posted December 28, 2005 Writing comments as I go here: 1. No way the Skins go 9-7. Not a chance in Hades. Their D will again be solid, but their offense? Please. 2. Giants go 7-9? You're being too kind. They'll be lucky to win 5. 3. The Rams will win 10 games. 4. Cadillac Williams will be ROY. 5. I do, however, agree with your Super Bowl prediction. Steelers have everything to win it. 954704[/snapback] 1. You are right, they might go 10-6...... 2. Too kind at 7-9, actually too rough on them. 3. The Rams lost 10 games 4. 5. It is a longshot, but I still believe...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziachild007 Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 2. Houston Texans 9-7 (+2) 954684[/snapback] I dont know if I should or .................. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menudo Posted December 28, 2005 Author Share Posted December 28, 2005 The Steelers are one hurting offensive unit. 9-7 is wishful thinking, SB is a longshot. 954716[/snapback] With a win this weekend, 11-5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menudo Posted December 28, 2005 Author Share Posted December 28, 2005 Pitt wont get to the AFC title game this yr, and the worst prediction of them all is Washington. They will be lucky to go 6-10. 954779[/snapback] Wrong on the 2nd part, still waiting on the 1st Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menudo Posted December 28, 2005 Author Share Posted December 28, 2005 (edited) Jerome Bettis MVP. 1239718[/snapback] Super Bowl MVP dumba$$ I predicted Peyton as the league MVP. Edited December 28, 2005 by Menudo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedroz13 Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 Some of them are so far off its hilarious, yet others are very solid. I like the bold predictions though, and like the revisiting at season's end. Well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a longshot, but I still believe...... 1239720[/snapback] 1. Skins shocked us all, eh? 2. Giants too... Eli looks like he will be solid at some point. 3. :doah: Weak division... injury to Bulger didn't help. 4. 5. They certainly have the right parts. Wouldn't be shocked to see them upset the Colts.
