2012 NFL Prediction Post

It's time for my annual NFL prediction post, first, let's review how I did last year. Bold is correct, strikethrough is one I got wrong.

2011 Picks
AFC
North: Baltimore
South: Tennessee
East: New England
West: Oakland
Wild Card: Pittsburgh
Wild Card: Jets

Champion: New England

NFC
North: Green Bay
South: New Orleans
East: NY Giants
West: St. Louis
Wild Card: Chicago
Wild Card: Dallas

Champion: New Orleans

Superbowl Champion: New Orleans

So not really bad, I had six of ten playoff teams, with one correct Superbowl team.

For 2012, there are definitely some teams that I'm not drinking their koolaid, like San Francisco and Houston, but I'm not sure who else to pick in that division. So without further ado, here are my picks:

AFC
North: Baltimore
South: Houston
East: New England
West: San Diego
Wild Card: Pittsburgh
Wild Card: Buffalo

Champion: New England

NFC
North: Chicago
South: New Orleans
East: NY Giants
West: San Francisco
Wild Card: Green Bay
Wild Card: Carolina

Champion: Chicago

Superbowl Champion: New England

I'm pretty excited for the Bears season. If they face any other AFC team in the Superbowl, I would pick the Bears, I think New England has their number however.

Full disclosure: this was written with one game, Dallas defeating the NY Giants already complete.
