It's about that time for your 10 Fearless Predictions for the upcoming NFL season so we can all laugh at you later in the year (Carolina is SB bound!). I have to think them over some more. Soon to come though....

Almost time peeps. I know after watching a couple pre-season games I'm ready to make a few rash judgments on certain teams.

10 Fearless Predictions
==================
1) Larry Fitzgerald will finish with fewer than 10 TDs and fewer than 1000 yards receiving.
2) The offensive rookie of the year will be a player not drafted in the first four rounds in the 2010 NFL draft.
3) Maurice Jones-Drew will finish with worse fantasy numbers than Clinton Portis.
4) The Jets will have a losing record.
5) The Browns will finish second in the AFC North.
6) The most productive WR on Indianapolis will not be Reggie Wayne.
7) The most productive Miami running back will be neither Ronnie Brown nor Ricky Williams.
8) Jay Cutler will be benched and/or injured by week 8.
9) Michael Turner will lead the NFL in rushing TDs by at least 3.
10) The Lions. Will. Make. The. Playoffs.

If this happens, I will personally drive up to CO next year and chauffer you down to next year's draft all on my dime.

I hate my number ten prediction, just kinda boring. I'm gonna change it tomorrow, so don't get too attached to it.

1. Jordan Shipley has more receiving yards than TO. Love this prediction. And I believe it too, not to tip my hand at the draft on sunday too much...... |

My first prediction was going to be about the Jets, but everyone else seems to be jumping aboard the same wagon, so it seemed kinda pointless.

Changed my prediction to a Packers one. That prediction kind of seems to contradict my Saints one, but whatever.
I reserve the right to change these up until the season starts.

We could use a couple more takers for the 10 Fearless Predictions thread.
If you'll remember, I sign an incredibly arbitrary number, quantifying the boldness of each prediction (Predictatory Manhood Score - PMS) then at the end of the year assign points (partial credit allowed by another completely arbitrary process) based on whether the prediction comes true (or nearly true!).
It's a fun thing! Sort of!

10 Fearless Predictions ================== 8) Jay Cutler will be benched and/or injured by week 8. I was too conservative by 5 weeks. |
