The NFL consists of 16 grueling regular season games. If we have learned anything over the years, it is that no team is unbeatable, no matter what the NFL odds say. Not to mention that a single injury can cause a top team to become mediocre in a flash. I think the big difference in this upcoming season is that there aren’t many middle-ranked teams. The league is made up primarily of very good or very bad teams. Barring injury, here is how I see the NFL Divisions looking come January. AFC East 1...

The 49ers are coming off an 8-8 season in 2009, but with the Arizona Cardinals losing quarterback Kurt Warner to retirement, they have quickly become the favorites to win the division this season. Here is a look at what the 49ers will send to the field on both sides of the ball in 2010, plus my prediction on where they finish the season in the NFC West. Want some...
Read more about 2010 San Francisco 49ers Predictions 2010 St. Louis Rams Predictions - July 26, 2010The St. Louis Rams have simply not been a good football team at all the past three seasons. They have managed just six wins since going 8-8 in 2006, and many of their losses have been blowouts. The Rams were just 1-15 in 2009, but there is hope that this team will start to show some life in the second season under head coach Tony Spagnuolo. This is still a very young football team (3rd youngest in the NFL), but the pieces are starting to fall in place for this team to once again be competitive in...

In Jim Mora’s first season as head coach the Seahawks went just 5-11, and it resulted in the team firing Mora after just one season. The Seahaws went out and landed former USC head coach Pete Carroll, who they believe will turn this franchise back into an annual contender in the NFC West. Here is a look at what the Seahawks will send on to the field...
Read more about 2010 Seattle Seahawks Predictions 2010 Arizona Cardinals Predictions - July 23, 2010There will be a different look to the Arizona Cardinals for the 2010 season, as quarterback Kurt Warner decided to retire this past offseason, after taking them to the Super Bowl in 2008 and leading them to a second straight division title in 2009. The Cardinals were able to beat the Packers in the first round of the playoffs, but were no match for the Saints in the divisional round. Even without Warner the Cardinals believe they still have enough talent to win the NFC West this season. Here is a...

The Buccaneers didn’t do a lot in free agency to make them better, but believe they scored big in the NFL draft. Here is a look at what the Bucs are projected to send onto the field this season, plus my prediction on where they finish...

The Saints started the season a perfect 13-0 before losing their final three games of the season. The Saints didn’t make a lot of changes this offseason, but believe they have a great shot at making another strong run at the Super Bowl.Here is a look at what the Saints will send...
Read more about 2010 New Orleans Saints Predictions 2010 Carolina Panthers Predictions - July 22, 2010The Carolina Panthers took a big turn in the wrong direction in 2009, as they went from the No.2 seeded team in the NFC in 2008 after going 12-4 to just 8-8 in 2009. A big reason for the downward turn was the play of quarterback Jake Delhomme, who threw just eight touchdowns to 18 interceptions before being benched for Matt Moore at the end of the season. While few are giving the Panthers a shot in the NFC South this season, they believe they have the talent to win this division. Here is a look at...
Read more about 2010 Carolina Panthers Predictions 2010 Atlanta Falcons Predictions - July 22, 2010After finishing the year at 11-5 and earning a spot in the postseason in 2008, the Atlanta Falcons took a minor step back in 2009. The Falcons battled a number of key injures and a pretty tough schedule to finish the 2009 season at 9-7. Heading into the 2010 season the Falcons believe they have the talent to take down the New Orleans Saints for the NFC South division title. The schedule is much easier for the Falcons in 2010, but staying healthy is the key for this team, as the only big addition...
Read more about 2010 Atlanta Falcons Predictions 2010 Minnesota Vikings Predictions - July 21, 2010It was a very successful first season for the Minnesota Vikings and quarterback Brett Favre in 2009, as the Vikings went an impressive 12-4 in the regular season and were one bad call away from playing in the Super Bowl last season. Heading into the 2010 season none of that matters unless Favre comes back for another year. All signs point to Favre coming back, but no official announcement has been made yet. Here is a look at what the Vikings will bring to the table this season on both sides of the...
Read more about 2010 Minnesota Vikings Predictions 2010 Green Bay Packers Predictions - July 20, 2010After finishing the 2008 season with just six wins, the Green Bay Packers came out firing in 2009 on their way to an 11-5 finish in the regular season. While it wasn’t good enough to catch the Minnesota Vikings for the NFC North title, the Packers were able to grab a wild card spot in the postseason. The magic didn’t last long, as the Packers were out scored by the Arizona Cardinals in a 51-45 overtime thriller. Very few changers were made this offseason, and the Packers are not only...
Read more about 2010 Green Bay Packers Predictions 2010 Detroit Lions Predictions - July 20, 2010The Detroit Lions may have only finished the 2009 season at 2-14, but it looks as though this team is ready to start turning things around in 2010. For the first time in a long time the Lions didn’t make any big moves in the coaching department, making it much easier on the players heading into this season. A couple of key free agent pickups and a number of trades has the Lions organization believing it will compete with any team in the league this season, whether or not that turns into more...
Read more about 2010 Detroit Lions Predictions 2010 Chicago Bears Predictions - July 20, 2010The Chicago Bears had high hopes entering the 2009 season after acquiring quarterback Jay Cutler from the Denver Broncos, but things didn’t go so smoothly for Cutler in his first season. The offensive line didn’t exist, there was no one to throw the football to, the running game disappeared, and Cutler threw a league worst 26 interceptions. Throw in a defense that didn’t live up to expectations and you get a 7-9 football team. The Bears added offensive coordinator Mike Martz to...
Read more about 2010 Chicago Bears Predictions 2010 Washington Redskins Predictions - July 15, 2010What an offseason it has been for the Washington Redskins in 2010, as they have brought in new head coach MikeShanahan, who added his son, Kyle, as the offensive coordinator and former Saints coach Jim Haslett as the defensive coordinator. The addition of Haslett means the Redskins are yet another team making the switch from a 4-3 to a 3-4, and that hasn’t went over all that well with some in Washington, mainly star defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth. With a new coaching staff and new schemes...

The Eagles still have a good nucleus of players back from a team that made the playoffs after finishing the year at 11-5, and this team believes it can return to the postseason under head coach Andy Reid. Here is a look at what the Eagles...

The majority of the blame went on the defense, and the Giants responded by firing defensive coordinator Bill Sheridan. To replace Sherridan the Giants went out and signed Perry Fewell, who figures to get this unit back on track in 2010. Here is a look at what the Giants will bring to the table during the 2010 season, plus my prediction on where they finish the season in...

The Cowboys won the NFC East with an 11-5 record, but their season came to a close against the Minnesota Vikings in the divisional round. However the Cowboys did manage to grab their first playoff win since 1996 when they beat the Philadelphia Eagles in the first round. With this year’s Super Bowl held at new Cowboys Stadium, there is no question...
Read more about 2010 Dallas Cowboys Predictions 2010 San Diego Chargers Predictions - July 14, 2010There is no question that the San Diego Chargers have been the class of the AFC West over the past six years, winning five division titles and will be looking for their fifth straight title this season. The Chargers went an impressive 13-3 in 2009, but were upset at home against the New York Jets in their first playoff game. There will be a different look to the Chargers in 2010, as longtime running back LaDainian Tomlinson is now a New York Jet and nose tackle Jamal Williams is playing for the...

The Chiefs added Charlie Weis as the new offensive coordinator, and brought in Romeo Crennel to take over as the new defensive coordinator, both of which were part of the Patriots last Super Bowl win back in 2004. Here is a look at what the Kansas City Chiefs will send to the field on both sides of the ball in 2010, plus my prediction...
Read more about 2010 Kansas City Chiefs Predictions 2010 Denver Broncos Predictions - July 13, 2010The Denver Broncos had everyone’s attention when they started the season 6-0 after head coach Josh McDaniels traded away quarterback Jay Cutler to Chicago and started the year with Kyle Orton. Unfortunately for the Broncos their luck didn’t last long, as they lost their eight of their final ten games to finish the year at 8-8. This offseason McDaniels has traded away star wide receiver Brandon Marshall, and then made a very bold move trading up for Florida quarterback Tim Tebow in the...
Read more about 2010 Denver Broncos Predictions 2010 Tennessee Titans Predictions - July 9, 2010The Tennessee Titans had a rollercoaster season in 2009, as they were the laughing stock of the NFL starting the season 0-6, but thanks to an amazing performance by Chris Johnson and the reemergence of quarterback Vince Young the Titans were able to finish the year at 8-8. This year the Titans are hoping that they can return to the form of the 2008 season where they finished 13-3 and held the No.1 seed going into the postseason. Here is a look at the 2010 projected starters for the Titans, and my...
Read more about 2010 Tennessee Titans Predictions 2010 Jacksonville Jaguars Predictions - July 9, 2010The Jacksonville Jaguars surprised a lot of people when they started the 2009 season 7-5 in what was being called a rebuilding year, but this team simple fell apart down the stretch losing their last four games to finish the year at a very mediocre 7-9. This year the organization is hoping that they can not only put a winning season together, but get back in the playoffs. It is likely a do or die season for head coach Jack Del Rio. Here is a look at what the Jaguars bring to the table on both sides...

Now the Texans will try and reach the postseason for the first time. Not a lot of big moves being made by the Texans this offseason. The Texans did have to replace offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan, who left to join his father in Washington, and brought in Rick Dennison, who most recently worked as the offensive coordinator in Denver back in 2008....

Last year the Steelers started strong going 6-2 in the first half of the season, but then went on to lose five straight and wound up unable to defend their title at 9-7 and out of the playoffs. Then you throw in all the drama surrounding quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, who is suspended for the first four games of the season after getting in more legal troubles, and the Steelers look...

After starting the season 1-11 the Browns went on to win their final four games of the season, to save face and save Mangini’s job. There is hope that this team is headed in the right direction under new president Mike Holmgren, but there is still a lot of work to do before the Browns are playoff contenders again. Here is a look at what the Browns will bring to the table in 2010, plus my prediction...
