7. My prediction, and it is 100% accurate...is that...

16. I like what you say about the Chargers
They have a lot of weapons on offense with a very good quarterback that I followed since college. I remember at NC State there was a lot of talk about his unorthodox throw that would possibly hurt him in the pros but since then I haven't heard a single thing about or even if he changed how he throws the ball. I forgot how he did or does throw the ball. Don't know much about the Dline or LB crew but I think they have a very talented secondary. One of the best if not the best in the AFC. I don't like the Chargers though and I don't want to see them in the Super Bowl but realistically I think they have a good as shot as any.

When it comes to the Bears I want Jay Cutler to fail. I always have even before this offseason. The Broncos are my favorite AFC team (They got a pretty good secondary too!) but ever since the Broncos handed a 7-4 team to the hands of Jay Cutler after Plummer(Arizona St fan here) lead them to a 13-3 record and breaking Elway records in passing yardage and passing touchdowns in a single season only to see the Broncos go 2-5 with Cutler as the starter and fail to make the playoffs. Cutler does not have a winning record as a quarterback which isn't fair to say in a team sport but he does have a strong arm. I just want him to fail and I hardly ever want people to fail, I generally want to see people be successful as I wish internet posters would wish the same for me if I was in there shoes.

17. nice post...
You are right about River's football release, somewhat like Sandy Kofax's curveball delivery.

As to the Cardinals, what can you say about Kurt, totally a Pro-bowler aNd if you give him anytime to throw, it's a long gain.

I'm not a Ms. cutler fan, zero!!!bUt, he's got a very well coached team...

21. Yeah, sure.
Let's see. One of the top rated O-lines. Best running back in the league. Best run defense. Top 5 pass defense. Doesn't sound like they are unarmed. Add a QB that is better than average with a couple really fast WR.

18. Giants and Steelers.
Though a New England/Chicago rematch would be a win win for me.

20. I Like The Way You Think
But, this year i think neither.

NE has some pent up aggression and the Giants are not the same team.
