Brad’s
2006 NFL Outlook

by Brad Robinson

(Editor’s note: With the NFL season about to start I turned to the person that I know to be the expert on all things football.  Brad Robinson lives in Valparaiso, Indiana and has been a life long Packer fan and student of football since childhood.  He has competed in many fantasy leagues over the years, starting in one long before today’s proliferation of fantasy leagues via the Internet.  Brad’s NFL picks appear below.)

First the AFC where I think I picked most of the pre-season favorites.  Miami could surprise with Culpepper at QB. Baltimore could sneak in as the last wild card if McNair stays healthy.

East

West

Miami

Pittsburg

Indianapolis

Denver

New England

Cincinnati (WC)

Jacksonville (WC)

Kansas City

Buffalo

Baltimore

Tennessee

Oakland

NY Jets

Cleveland

Houston

San Diego

In the NFC, again not much deviation from the favorites; I’m trying not to look bad in my first chance at being an expert. There always seems to be one team that played poorly the previous year and will jump up to make the playoffs.  I believe that this year that team will be Arizona.  I would love to pick the Packers over the Bears but the Bears defense just seems too good.
