It’s been a long time since I’ve done one of these, and you probably thought it would be a lot longer before I did another one, with the NFL season still being over four months away. Wow, that’s a depressingly large number. I want it to start tomorrow and because of this, here I am putting out my first predictions for the 2009 NFL season. This was really hard to do with the season so far away, but I have a treat for you all tomorrow. I hope you’re excited about it; I now I am and I bet you’re going to be surprised too!
Here are my early 2009 regular season NFL predictions:
| AFC | |||
| North | South | East | West |
| Steelers (14-2) | Colts (13-3) | Patriots (11-5) | Chargers (10-6) |
| Ravens (12-4) | Titans (10-6) | Dolphins (9-7) | Broncos (6-10) |
| Browns (5-11) | Texans (10-6) | Bills (8-8) | Chiefs (3-13) |
| Bengals (5-11) | Jaguars (4-12) | Jets (6-10) | Raiders (2-14) |
| NFC | |||
| North | South | East | West |
| Vikings (10-6) | Panthers (10-6) | Giants (12-4) | Cardinals (11-5) |
| Packers (8-8) | Falcons (10-6) | Redskins (10-6) | Seahawks (7-9) |
| Bears (7-9) | Saints (8-8) | Cowboys (9-7) | 49ers (7-9) |
| Lions (1-15) | Buccaneers (6-10) | Eagles (9-7) | Rams (3-13) |
Based on those predictions, here are what the playoff seedings would look like:
| AFC | 1. Steelers | NFC | 1. Giants |
| 2. Colts | 2. Cardinals | ||
| 3. Patriots | 3. Panthers | ||
| 4. Chargers | 4. Vikings | ||
| 5. Ravens | 5. Falcons | ||
| 6. Titans | 6. Redskins |
And based on those seedings, here are my predictions for how the post season would play out:
| Wild Card Round | Divisional Round | ||
| Matchup | Winner | Matchup | Winner |
| Titans @ Patriots | Patriots | Chargers @ Steelers | Chargers |
| Ravens @ Chargers | Chargers | Patriots @ Colts | Colts |
| Redskins @ Panthers | Panthers | Vikings @ Giants | Giants |
| Falcons @ Vikings | Vikings | Panthers @ Cardinals | Panthers |
| AFC Championship | NFC Championship | ||
| Matchup | Winner | Matchup | Winner |
| Chargers @ Colts | Colts | Panthers @ Giants | Giants |
| Super Bowl XLIII Matchup | Super Bowl XLIII Champions | ||
| Colts vs Giants | Indianapolis Colts | ||
