My predictions NOW and THEN

Predictions from a week before the season:

AFC Conference
1. Patriots 13-3
2. Chargers 13-3
3. Steelers 12-4
4. Colts 11-5
5. Bengals 11-5
6. Titans 9-7

NFC Conference
1. Vikings 13-3
2. Cowboys 11-5
3. Seahawks 9-7
4. Eagles 9-7
5. Redskins 9-7
6. Buccaneers 9-7

Obviously most of that is wrong:
In the AFC, The Bengals have already lost 8, the Chargers have lost 5 already, the Titans have 8 wins and the Patriots and the Colts are a shadow of their former selves. Although I am happy with my Steelers pick and can see them finishing there.

In the NFC, The Vikings are struggling, the Cowboys had lost Romo but can still get to 11-5 despite their strong division if they go on a run. The Seahawks are worse than I thought, the Eagles are on course for their prediction, the Redskins should surpass theres as should the Buccaneers so not to bad on the NFC front despite missing out both the Panthers and the Giants.

Right, now here is my new predictions for the end of the season including player awards.
