Super Bowl Prediction

I’m really going to shock some with my prediction for Super Bowl winner… but I’m going to go with…
The New England Patriots.
Shocking, I know, but now that the Packers are gone, I have to stick with my week one prediction (and the majority of those who responded in my week 1 poll) and pick the Patriots to cap off their perfect season in super fashion.
NFL Conference Championship Predictions

This week has been pretty busy, so I’m going to keep it really short in the interests of actually getting this posted. Last week was a whole lot of fun for Packers fans to watch, and it’s exciting to see the transformation that’s taken place in Green Bay over the past year.
The conference championships this week are going to be a lot of fun to watch as well, but I honestly don’t expect the same kind of drama that took place in the divisional championship round last weekend. We’ll see, it could be surprising, but I don’t think we’ll be shocked by the outcomes.

Last week’s Wild Card weekend wasn’t actually as exciting as I thought it would be. Sure, the Jaguars/Steelers match was a lot of fun to watch, but that was really the only game that kept my full attention from start to finish. Congratulations to Eli Manning for winning his first playoff game and the San Diego Chargers, for winning their first one in long time as well.
My predictions last week got me off to a good start for the playoffs by picking 3 of the 4 games right. Hopefully I can continue that success this week in what looks like a bit more of an unpredictable weekend.

Happy New Year! Today I decided to go back over each week of picks to check and make sure that I had been adding things up correctly. What I found out is that I had actually been tallying my total incorrectly since week 12, showing an extra 4 games in the loss column and bumping the total amount of games played out of whack (which is what prompted me to check my numbers in the first place).
So, all of my posts have been updated to show the correct records/percentages and other related items and in case you missed my update at the end of last week’s post, it turns out that this has been my best year (at least for the regular season) ever. I finished off the regular season with a nice 172-84 record (.672) which is better than the 160-96 in 2006 and 163-93 in 2005.
