about the upcoming NFL season, with a nod to Aaron Feldstein (http://nec-roughness.blogspot.com/):
--The Denver Broncos will win at least six games. People are predicting that the bottom three teams in the AFC West are all going to be abysmal, to the tune of 4-12 or 3-13, but the fact is the schedule won't permit that. One of them is going to win 6 or more games, and I think it'll be the Broncos.
--The Oakland Raiders will win at least five games. This isn't schedule-related; rather, I think that they've gained enough experience to surprise a few teams, plus win three or so AFC West games. They're not the god-awful Raiders of years past, just the god-mediocre Raiders.
--I can't believe that people are assuming that simply because Tom Brady is back, the Patriots are going to be a 14-2 team. This team's problems go way deeper than Brady being injured; the defense is far more questionable than before, for all the offensive tools they might have. I predict they go 11-5, max.
I don't know much about the NFL these days, but I'd stake some cash on these things. Come by the bar if you want to enter anything in the wager book.

Alright SIR!!!
Denver got lucky to get one of those six wins and you know it! It is downhill from there... although they could get win 2 against Cleveland this week.
The Raiders looked awesome last night. That being said, they still lost and unfortunately they have to face the NFC North. They beat Detroit and that's it. (2nd in the AFC West at season's end).
Tom Brady looked like crude. So I might go with you, although if they are 11-5 without him, he is good for at least one or two more wins once he isn't afraid of getting hit. Defense it suspect, but soon this offense will go off.
But I like that you are taking a stand and that you will not give up nor do you contradict yourself from past conversations. You don't flip flop and I love...
Me on the other hand... Ha HA!
