With the start of the NFL season coming this week, that means it’s time for everyone’s favorite thing: PREDICTIONS.
Sure, most people only love reading predictions so that they can make fun of everything you got wrong at the end of the season, but that’s not a problem for me. I’m a middle child, so I’ve been made fun of my entire life.
Before we get to my predictions, let me explain how things are going to work here: I’m going to go through each division and predict each team’s final record. After that, I’ll be making a bold prediction for each division. Once you roll through the divisional portion of these predictions, you’ll see my playoff picks and eventually, my Super Bowl champion. In four of the past seven years, I’ve correctly picked the AFC team that ended up in the Super Bowl, and in two of the past seven years, my preseason Super Bowl pick has ended up winning it all, so you might want to scroll down and check out my prediction for the Super Bowl to see if I’m picking your favorite team.
Also, since we all know that making fun of someone’s predictions is half the fun of reading predictions, you can send all your hate tweets to me on Twitter by clicking here, and just so you know, Cardinals fans, I’m already mentally preparing for your hate tweets.
Finally, if you’re wondering how I did last season, I predicted the exact win total of five different teams. I also correctly predicted the entire NFC divisional round of the playoffs. Not only did I predict that the Packers would play the 49ers, but I also predicted that the Rams would play the Buccaneers. On the other hand, I completely whiffed on Philadelphia. I had the Eagles going 5-12 and if you watched any football in 2021, then you already know the Eagles didn’t go 5-12. With a first-year coach, they ended up going 9-8 and making the playoffs. I feel so bad about whiffing on them last year that I’m going to make it up to them by picking them to win the division this year…. or maybe I won’t. I don’t know, I’m not sure yet.
You don’t care about last year though, so let’s get to the 2022 predictions.
AFC East
1. *Bills: 13-4
2. Dolphins: 9-8
3. Patriots: 7-10
4. Jets: 5-12
