This years Super Bowl winner is….

Who ya got

Eagles

@Coloneljim

 and my flyer pick would be the Seahawks.

Vikings

Cowboys.

The window seems closed to me on my Buffalo Bills and the Cincinnati Bengals. I envision an all Pennsylvania Eagles/Steelers Superbowl as both teams have been stockpiling talent and maturing. I sense Pickett has the 'right stuff' as he stopped the turnovers later in the year and he had two last second TDs to lead his team to victory. 

I say Eagles all the way. 

Kansas City 

The Baltimore Ravens 

Ravens vs Cowboys is my Super Bowl prediction. But I could just as easily see the Chiefs make it back again to repeat.. 

@Digitalkarma

 thats funny….thats my exact same prediction.  My one knock is running qbs never go to and win superbowls (Lamar).  Hopefully he stays healthy and can prove me wrong!

Lamar isn't just a running QB... Let's get that out of the way first

Jalen Hurts, Cam Newton they both went to a Super Bowl but didn't win and I'd say they're in just about the same style as Lamar. Russell Wilson was just a 3,300 yd passer when the Seahawks won the SB but their defense did most of the work for him. Wilson was more of a scrambler earlier in his career, then they gave him Lockett and Jimmy Graham for a time and he became more of a passer. Whose to say the same can't be done for Lamar too? 

Greg Roman's offense had it's limitations it was obvious it wasn't going to get much better. Monken will be the key to unlocking Lamar as a passer. Lamar will be the dual threat QB we saw in 2019 and hoped for an evolution of that MVP version of Lamar that we've been waiting for a long time but still have yet to receive. Hopefully Monken's 2nd go around as OC in the NFL is a more successful one I think Monken stock is good right now after he helped Georgia with a pair of nattys. So far put a couple hundo split between conference and SB futures 5.5k return if it hits may sprinkle a bit more before the season starts

LA CHARGERS...LET GOCAN'T WAIT...

Wouldn't be shocked if chiefs repeat....top 5 OL for the best QB in league....couple studs on defense

Niners.  The NFC is less competitive as it has less contenders, at the top it's Philly and SF.  SF has the easier schedule and Brock Purdy in year 2 should be a lot more comfortable.  If they can stay healthy, I think this is their year.

Barring major injuries the Chiefs will repeat. They're basically another dynasty like the Pats, with the best QB and best coach, and an offense where you can just plug in whatever WRs or RBs you have and it works. It doesn't matter if they're down 2 scores at halftime in a playoff game, they're still gonna win. I knew in the SB the 10 point lead wasn't enough.

Used to be that besides the Pats the SB winning teams came out of nowhere, many times even a team with a losing record the year before. So instead of picking the teams that we already know are good enough like the Bengals, or teams that should be good enough but always screw up, like world class imploder Josh Allen and the Bills, some teams that missed the playoffs or were one and done might be the best bets for futures this year. Especially now that there are extra wild cards.

AFC: Browns have talent and should be better now with Watson getting a full offseason and proper season. Jags I like the way TL is progressing and the division stinks so he should get into the playoffs again. Jets and Dolphins I don't buy into, hate the coaches of those teams. I think the Kenny Pickett hype is interesting but the Steelers aren't a real contender in my eyes. Chargers, I love Herbert but they always tank and the Ravens are never winning a SB with Lamar Jackson. Raiders will probably have another scandal it's what they do.

So if you're not taking the Chiefs, Bengals or Bills I'm looking at the Browns and Jags in the AFC.

NFC: Eagles can avoid the SB hangover like the Bengals did and become the first team in ages to repeat the division but again I'm going to list teams that I think can come out of nowhere not ones that are expected to be good. Giants I like their coach a lot and Daniel Jones is underrated but looking at how the Eagles spanked them they have a ways to go. Cowboys great defense but Dak Prescott is never winning a SB I never liked him. Washington has a good defense too and an awesome WR in McLaurin but they're a team for the future who just is the Raiders of the NFC, born under a bad sign, something always goes wrong. While I prefer the team that has good coaching and the least INTs like NYG the Cowboys are more talented and actually were competitive with the Eagles recently so that's the only dark house type team from the East I see.

I don't think any team from the NFC south is that good. The Saints have a good defense but their offense sucked. In fact no team from that division ranked higher than 15th in offense and that team, the Falcons was only higher than Chicago in passing yards. So just forget that whole division.

The NFC North is wide open but the NFL is all about offense now and so forget about Chicago, both Detroit and Minnesota have top 10 scoring offenses. However, neither can stop the pass to save their life. GB yes they lost AR but they're middle of the pack in most stats so could become competitive this season again. But literally 4 of the bottom 5 teams in yards allowed per play come from this division. Like that's the whole division has no overall defense. I know Detoit is really improved but the Lions we all know what happens to them every year.

So I really think the winner of the conference is coming from the East or West and lets say that we eliminate the Eagles just based on SB loss hangover and lack of repeat East winners (tho i think they buck both trends) and also just the odds aren't juicy. Eliminate Washington as they have no QB yet. Leaves us with the Giants and Boys.

NFC West the Cardinals are in disarray and the Rams fell off big time, plus SF totally has their number lately. That leaves Seattle and SF. But I'm sorry I don't buy into Geno Smith and think the Rams are more likely to get back competitive.

Tbh the more you look at the NFC the more it looks like only a healthy SF should be able to be better than Philly. I like the 9ers coach a lot so I will look at them and then the juicy odds picks would be the Rams and Cowboys.

One wild pick that could surprise is if the Broncos suddenly put it together this year with Wilson and that defense but that division is so tough.

I will take the Birds 

The Browns might win 8 games...

SF. 

Jets 

CHIEFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Arizona Allday

Bills vs 49ers 

SF wins it all. This team will come into the season with a chip on its shoulder after losing their 3rd string QB Purdy in the NFC championship game. This team knows if Purdy didn't get hurt they would have played in the final game. They arguably have the best defense in the league. Their front 7 is stout and does not allow the opponent to run on them.  The offense is not a big play threat but efficiency is what they strive for. Kittle, Samuel, and McCaffrey pack enough punch. The NFC is not as strong as years past. The Eagles probably are their toughest competition but I think the Eagles will suffer from a Superbowl hangover. I don't trust Dak and the Cowgirls. The Lions are another year away from a deep playoff run. The time is now in SF.

Was Purdy a one season wonder. I see a 2nd year slump and the Eagles are again in the SB.

There are the clear-cut obvious choices but how bout a sleeper, if there even is one. Finz and Jets out of the AFC East, possibly, Lions out of the NFC North, not your Daddy's Lions squad, Cowboys or Giants out of the NFC East, I'm seeing luv for the Steelers, interesting, I'm a Pickett fan but maybe too soon for him? Saints from the mighty NFC South, I hear there's a new sheriff in town and the defense should be fine again. Could Baker Mayfield lead a respectable Bucs team to the playoffs? Still sum talent in Tampa Bay. Just throwing sum initial thoughts out, so much depends on staying healthy at key positions. Should be another fun season and best of luck to all!

Chargers have quietly been making good moves each year, only to be thwarted by injury. Tempted to say Bengals or Chargers even though I know the Chiefs are the best, but I’ll go with Chargers and new OC Kellen Moore. KC can’t win it every year!
