How did my NFL 2012 predictions turn out in the regular
season? Well some truth and
fiction. Let’s start with where I
screwed up.
-
Jets and Bills at 11-5 and in the playoffs. Ouch!
-
Bengals go 6-10.
I respect the Dalton a lot more!
-
Colts 5-11.
Tell you what, they’ve won a lot of close games. My guess is they take at least a 3-4 game
decrease next year.
-
Chiefs win the AFC west at 9-7. Ouch!!
-
Broncos at 8-8 miss the playoffs. Ouchie Mama!!!
-
Eagles at 10-6, Redskins at 3-13. Philadelphia’s wheels definitely fell
off. RG3 and Alfred Morris are a lot
better than I thought. I didn’t even
know who Morris was actually.
-
Lions 11-5, Vikings 4-12. Double Ouch!
-
Seahawks 7-9 and Rams 4-12. Now I did say that the Hawks would improve
down the stretch but thought their early schedule was too difficult. Home wins vs GB and NE made a huge impact in
their win column.
Now with where I succeeded…
-
Patriots, Ravens, Texans, Packers, Falcons, and
49ers all won their divisions as predicted.
-
Steelers did not make the playoffs as predicted.
-
Jaguars were exactly 2-14. Titans 6-10.
Buccaneers 7-9.
-
Browns were last in AFC north (although anyone
would’ve predicted that)
-
The following teams had either 1 more win or
loss than I predicted…Ravens, Texans, Giants, Cowboys, Packers, Bears,
Panthers, Saints, and Cardinals
Overall Playoff Teams…
-
I was able to get 6 out of 12 on playoff
participants…pretty bad really
-
Teams that didn’t make it which I picked: Jets, Bills, Chiefs, Giants, Bears, and Lions
(4 of which seem very ridiculous)
-
Teams that did make it which I didn’t pick: Seahawks, Redskins, Vikings, Broncos, Colts,
and Bengals (can see Denver in retrospect but consider what most of us thought
of the other 5 teams QBs before the season began)
Hey, it’s fun to predict and more fun to see how I do. Give me your thoughts!!!
