The bloggers here at the NFL portion of FanHouse recently huddled up in a basement, put our heads together and came up with our predictions for the 2008 NFL season. Eleven of us voted and below is the mathematics of it all.
We don't just have our Super Bowl predictions [go after the jump to see those picks], but the entire NFL. We picked each division how we saw fit and below is how the voting went, along with the links to our writers' previews of each team. The number in parenthesis denotes how many first-place votes that team received.
*- denotes our Wild Card picks:
|
|---|
Here are the voters of this poll, and their individual picks for the Super Bowl:
Adam Gretz: Colts over Vikings
Bruce Ciskie: Chargers over Packers
JJ Cooper: Patriots over Cowboys
Matt Moore: Patriots over Cowboys
Matt Snyder: Chargers over Cowboys
Michael David Smith: Colts over Cowboys
Ryan Wilson: Eagles over Jaguars
Sportz Assassin: Patriots over Cowboys
Stephanie Stradley: Patriots over Cowboys
Tom Mantzouranis: Colts over Saints
Will Brinson: Panthers over Chargers
Judging by our Super Bowl picks, it seems as if we are leaning toward a Cowboys-Patriots Super Bowl. The "Team of the 90s" against the "Team of the 00s". Arguably the two most hated teams in the NFL doing battle in Tampa next February.

It wouldn't surprise me in the least if the Patsies are back in the SB. I don't for one second believe that bellychic is done cheating. He got caught with cameras, he'll find another way. And on top of that, the pats have the easiest schedule in the history of the NFL. BB is lowlife scum, and so is his team.

Hmmm - tough to argue with your logic about someone being scum - especially someone who knows him as well as you do and knows exactly what happened with the illegal filming; not just what the media told you. WOW you are brilliant...

It truly is amazing how some of you morons are still hung up on one kid on the sidelines with a camcorder in a sport that is covered by literally hundreds of cameras.
You still want to believe that this was some sort of "magic" camera that could gather secret information that 76,000 people couldn't see with their eyes or that no other camera could catch.
You choose to ignore that EVERY HOME team videotapes the visiting teams signals EVERY GAME from the "legal" vantage point in the boxes, because the visiting team is facing those cameras.
You also probably think Rosie O'Donnell is "right on target" with her Tower 7 conspiracy theory too....he, maybe BB taped that too??

I guess you don't realize how bad of of a penalty that was given the pats.losing a 1st round pick is not the best way to rebuild a team.idon't expect them to go 16-0 but 14-2 is what this team will do.if you look back the pats have not won a pre season game in more than 2 years so what does that tell you.
all teams watch other teams signials who know it could be a fan seating in the stands.everyone does it.the pats win over the cowboys.

you don't know anything about football so try badminton or something else, because you don't seem to understand how the schedule is set. It's not the Patriots fault that the teams their schedule to play all suck.

you are truly one of those loser fans of a team that was obviously blown out by the Pats. If you understood the game you would not be making such stupid statements. Get a life moron.

Fred, sour grapes buddy. if runnning with the delusion that the only way the Pats can win is by cheating helps you sleeep at night then sleep tight. But, you might want to consider the fact that they may, just may be a well coached & talented team. spy gate is over Wake up.

Fred-- It must be horrible being a New York sports fan. We are titletown, New York is loserville. And yes, we do have an easy schedule, we play the Jets twice.

Cannot believe you are still whining...clearly you do not have a clue as to what coaches have done to scout teams...why do you think that coaches cover up their lips when they call plays? It was well known that teams were hiring lip readers to catch plays, does that not constitute "cheating" Have you ever coached before, or even played the sport, probably not, easy to sit on your ass and give us your "professional" and insightful analysis...(idiot)

If by low-life scum you mean genius than you are dead-on. He has single handedly changed the way Football is played. The cheatin' thing was BS. It was just his way of screwin' around with Mangina and mangina called his bluff. BB is the best football coach of all time.

you are really an idiot u can't even spell Belichick right. If the Pats are "cheaters" how come we lost the super bowl. we went 18-1 because we are the best team in the league (say what you want about the superbowl but one game really isn't enough to decided it especially when the pats beat the giants in week 17). By the way the pats cheated for about half of the first quarter. A quarter in which the score was tied if my memory serves me correctly. Get over it. When you get a life and become an nfl coach then you can complain but when you sit on your righteous ass then no one should take your unintelligent comments seriously. Your probably a republican cop or something like that.
