The new NFL season is upon us. More so than previous years, this season carries intrigue and mystery for the NFC West. Several offseason changes and extenuating circumcisions have muddied the predictive waters for this division that we all know and love.
There is no need for another offseason recap, so I’m jumping straight into the predictions!
• Last week I predicted that the 49ers would win all of their remaining games and finish 15-1. So far, I’m looking like a genius. A tough home test against a well-balanced Detroit team that is stacked with talent resulted in a decisive three point victory for the San Francisco JimmyG’s. Get ready for tears in Arrowhead. I’m hold my prediction steady at 15-1.
• The Rams dismantled the Arizona Cardinals by a score of A Lot – Nothing. They look like a solid playoff team. Aside from the two losses to SF that I am predicting, it’s hard to find many more Ls on their schedule. I am upping my prediction for them to 12-4.
• Arizona Cardinals – Michael Bidwell is a goober. Steve Keim is a fat slob that has shamed his family. Their new head coach was an atrocious hire. Poor Larry. At least he’ll get to be a congressmen someday. Prediction DOWNGRADED to 4-12.
• Seattle Seahawks – I was thinking about the state of my beloved Seahawks whilst doing stuff the other night. I started to talk myself into some optimistic outlooks. For example, PC will probably look for more balance going forward, the defense settled down in the last game, the new offense will slowly congeal, etc. However, I am nothing if not an objective truth speaker. As such, I must stick with my initial prediction of 0-16. Woe is me. Poor Bob. Sad. No Maga.
