Wow great post DD, you put a lot of work into this.  I have a few comments and questions.

You think Aaron Rodgers can step in and take Green Bay to the Conference Finals in his 1st year?  Thats a gutsy call.  I grew up in the Bay Area so I got to watch Rodgers at Cal, I think he will be a good NFL QB, but with all the distractions he is facing right now I think it will be hard for him and the Packers to build on last years great season.

The Jets go 9-7.  With which QB?  I know they signed a lot of big name free agents this year, but if your a team that won't pick a starting QB until the end of training camp I can't see a 5 game turn around.  If your right and the Jets make the playoffs and the Browns don't I will take all your future predictions as gospel.

If Jonathan Stewart wins offensive rookie of the year then the Panthers make the playoffs.  With a solid running game to take the pressure off Jake Delhome the Panthers will be a force, plus this is John Fox's put up or shut up year.

If Payton Manning is the Offensive Player of the year then the Colts finish better than 9-7.  Their defense will be better this year than years past, so if Manning is lighting other teams up week in and week out then the Colts will finish 13-3/12-4.  Personally I think Bardy wins MVP again and the Colts finish 11-5/10-6.

nice post NFL, I fixed up the Ravens thing... late at night is not a great time to be posting such important info.  Seems like we basically agree on the divisional ranks of each team though

Whoa DD, think you covered everything? Ok, so who's coach of the year? And how do the Ravens miss playing 2 games?  Anyhow, I'm not touching the pro bowl predictions, but these are where I differ:

AFC

AFC East

Patriots 12-4
Bills 10-6
Jets 8-8
Dolphins 6-10

AFC North

Steelers 10-6
Browns 8-8
Bengals 7-9
Ravens 4-12

AFC South

Colts 11-5
Jaguars 11-5
Texans 8-8
Titans 7-9

AFC West

Chargers 12-4
Broncos 8-8
Chiefs 5-11

Raiders 4-12


NFC

NFC East

Eagles 12-4

Cowboys 10-6
Redskins 9-7
Giants 8-8


NFC North

Vikings 11-5
Packers 9-7
Bears 8-8
Lions 6-10

NFC South

Saints 10-6
Buccaneers 8-8
Panthers 6-10
Falcons 3-13

NFC West

Cardinals 10-6
Seahawks 8-8
Rams 6-10
49ers 4-12

I'll have to think on it more to refine it and come up with the rest SB etc.
