I'm not through with it, in fact I'm just previewin it
In the tradition of my College Football Preview, which now looks like dookie thanks to Oklahoma, I present to you my NFL Preview. At least with this one, one loss does not mean the end of the season.
*DISCLAIMER* Blatant pro-Redskin-ism cast aside for the good of you, the reader.
OFF/PRE-SEASON AWARDS, ETC:
Best Deer-in-headlights Look: Alex Smith, QB, San Francisco 49ers
Worst Imitation of an NFL Quarterback: Michael Vick, RB, Atlanta Falcons
Best Imitation of a Statue: Drew Bledsoe, QB, Dallas Cowboys
Worst Imitation of a Safe Sex Spokesperson: Ron Mexico, RB, Atlanta Falcons
“No, I’m not the quarterback for San Francisco”: Alex Smith, TE, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
“…but maybe that’s a good thing”: Alex Smith, TE, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Worst Foot Size/Size of Shoes to Fill Ratio: Aaron Rodgers, QB, Green Bay Packers
I don’t tell great players to retire, but really it’s about time: Jerry Rice, WR, San Francisco 49ers (always a 49er)
America’s Team: New Orleans Saints
Dynastic teams don’t miss the playoffs the season after winning the Super Bowl: New England Patriots
In case you’re wondering, they never were a dynasty: New England Patriots
Missing LSU: Nick Saban, Head Coach, Miami Dolphins
PREDICTIONS:
AFC East: New England Patriots – PJ Losman’s experience, Chad Pennington’s arm/shoulder, Miami’s roster
AFC West: San Diego Chargers – No flash in the pan
AFC North: Pittsburgh Steelers – Roethlisberger at mediocre is still better than Boller
AFC South: Indianapolis Colts – Jacksonville’s closing but not quickly enough
NFC East: Philadelphia Eagles – Window’s closing
NFC West: St. Louis Rams – Dennis Green showing all his Cards?
NFC North: Minnesota Vikings – Could put 50 up at Lambeau
NFC South: Carolina Panthers – Rooting for the Saints
AFC Wild Cards: Baltimore Ravens, Jacksonville Jaguars
NFC Wild Cards: Seattle Seahawks, Washington Redskins
Super Bowl: Indianapolis Colts v. Carolina Panthers
Super Bowl Winner: Indianapolis Colts

Flag! 15 yards against I-66 for picking the Panthers to win the South over the Atlanta Falcons...we also have 15 yards against Phil for excellent use of "Ron Mexico" in a football post. The penalties off-set. 1st down.
chica, mi amiga rosada, sports as a topic are more than always welcome here...
La respuesta: yo no se.
Special teams were less than special and that might have ultimately been their undoing. It wasn't particularly well-played offensively but Tyrone Moss was doing enough. The blocked punt was terrible - though FSU didn't get any points out of it - and then the botched field goal at the end of the game... not to mention the misses. Executing on special teams would've been enough to get the Canes the W. I still think they'll win the ACC.
hey it could be worse.. you could be Auburn.
Huzzah!

I wrote yet another disparaging comment about Michael Vick but got it all mixed up. Never mind.
Interesting predictions, though...
DCchick, that is God's way of telling you that you should not disparage the great Michael Vick.
Either that or it's God's way of telling me not to blog on an empty stomach. I'm going with the latter.
