Cook's 2010 NFL Predictions

One of the best times of year.  The weather is starting to get a little cooler, Kirk Herbstreit is on TV every Saturday morning for College Gameday, Notre Dame will most likely disappoint me, and the start of the NFL season.  With the NFL comes many glorious things like fantasy football, trash talking w/ friends, marathon Madden video game sessions, gambling, and going to many Colts games. 

Without further ado, here are my NFL predictions for 2010

• Brett Favre starts 10 or fewer games this year
• The Vikes go 8-8 or worse
• Chris Johnson rushes for over 2,000 yds, becoming 1st player to achieve that feat twice
• The Colts once again achieve at least 12 regular season wins (for the 8th straight season, i think)
• AFC Division winners - NE, Baltimore, Indy, San Diego.  wild cards - Tennessee & Miami
• NFC Division winners - Dallas, GB, NO, SF.  wild cards - Atlanta & Washington
• Aaron Rodgers wins the MVP
• The Raiders finish w/ a better record then the Broncos
• The Texans finish w/ a better record then the J-E-T-S
• Detroit wins at least 5 games (2 last year)
• Colts & GB play in the Super Bowl....Colts winning

Once again i'll be doing my annual betting, sticking to 2 games per week.  I didn't do quite as well last year as I did 2 years ago, but still finished above 50% going 27-23 on the season.  Looking to get back up to above 60% again this year.   

Big weekend coming up w/ the ND/Michigan game.  I'm going 42-34 ND.  Wake Up The Echoes.....
