NFL PREVIEW 2011/2012

The first week of the season isn't completely over, and I'm already surprised. Who would have seen the Bills romp the Chiefs 41-7 or Cam Newton throwing for over 400 yards in a loss. The Colts are probably in for a miserable season, and I'm still waiting for the team that comes out of nowhere to shock everybody (this won't be the Lions, whoc people have hopes for them to finish over .500, if not make the playoffs).
I went week by week and made predictions. This was before I found out that Manning would be out most of the year, so I expect the Colts to do worse. the playoff seedings and wins were determined by a coin flip (which is abundantly clear by my Super Bowl matchup). I'm probably wrong with my predictions, but its fun.
