Mid-Season Super Bowl/Sleeper Predictions

Alright so we've seen a decent amount of games so far this year.  Where are you at with your Super Bowl predictions?

 

I was thinking Broncos v. Packers at season's beginning.  

 

Right now, I'm thinking there is a team a piece in each conference that will make a leap come playoff time.

 

I also think the Lions and Bengals can go deep into the playoffs this year.  

 

My current guess is a Patriots-Lions Super Bowl (And it's not just because of Calvin's big game)

No way the Lions can sneak past all of the Hawks, Niners, Saints, and Pack in the playoffs.

 

Pats are never a bad pick, but even though I really didn't wanna buy into the Denver hype at the beginning of the season, they look invincible right now. And then of course, the Chiefs have found a way to win every single game so far with Alex Smith at QB, so they have to be in the talks too.

I think they beat the Pack in 4 weeks and take the division.  They've got a fairly lite schedule.

Denver & KC still have 2 games between them.

 

KC still plays the Bolts twice and COLTS.  COLTS have proven to be giant killers!  (They love to beat undefeated teams!)

 

Denver plays KC twice and at New England yet to come.

 

COLTS play the Texans & Titans twice + KC + the Bengals!  (I can see 2 more loses in there.)

 

IF the Colts WR's step up in Reggie's absence, I can see the COLTS going deep into the Playoffs. 

 

I could actually see the Bengals making it to the Super Bowl.

 

However, my pick for the Super Bowl is:

 

Denver vs New Orleans.  (Peyton Manning gets his revenge on the Saints! 38 - 21)

With Jake Locker back way earlier than previously thought, Tennessee has sleeper potential in the AFC (non-homer version). As for the Bolts, we're holding a lot of stuff together with duct tape, but if the staff continues to coach it's ass off, it might just hold.

The AFC is a complete crap shoot (the 5 seed hosting the AFCCG would not surprise me one bit), but right now I'd take Cincy.

 

As far as the NFC goes, people are fixated on SEA-SF and Green Bay is slipping under the radar. As they get healthier I think they may pass the Western teams and head to New York.

Saints v. Colts could be one that blindsides a few

 

I think the Saints-Broncos is the most likely match-up as things stand.  

 

In the NFC, you'd think someone between the Saints, Packers, Seahawks, and 49ers will make it (The Panthers and Lions are looking damn good too)

 

AFC, we're looking at the Colts, Patriots, Broncos, and a possible Bengal surge? Maybe the Chiefs slump in division games and the Bolts surpass them.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
