NFL Preseason Predictions

Despite the fact that it is Week Five, Cubsfan has been raging on me to post who we predicted to win the end of the season awards- so here I am. Cubfan and I emailed each other who we predicted to win before the regular season started and this is based off of those predictions. The games that have been played so far have no bearing on our predictions (and if you don't believe me, I'm sure once you see our picks you will believe us then).

San Diego Chargers def. Green Bay Packers

Cubsfan (teams he liked, in alphabetical order)

Dallas Cowboys, Green Bay Packers, Philadelphia Eagles, San Diego Chargers

NOTE: I did say that I hated the Jets and did not want them in the playoffs and I wanted to look to see who had the easier schedule and found the Buffalo Bills had the second easiest schedule (Carolina had the easiest). If the Bills make it to the playoffs I will not take credit for it but I should have stuck to my guns and taken the Bills. BTW, as of Week Five, I am taking the Bills to earn a wild card birth.
