2009 NFL Predictions: How did I do?

After watching the US hockey team beat the Swiss 2-0 to advance to the semifinals and Canada perform the Cleveland Steamer all over Russia tonight, I decided I should see just how good I did at my NFL predictions this past year now that the season's over. I know, they have nothing to do with each other. That's just how this guy works.

AFC West
What I said:
San Diego Chargers - 11-5
Denver Broncos - 6-10
Kansas City Chiefs - 6-10
Oakland Raiders - 5-11

What Really Happened:
San Diego - 13-3
Denver - 8-8
Oakland - 5-11
Kansas City - 4-12

Um, I got the winner right, along with the second place team. Also nailed that Oakland record right on the head. BOO YAH GRANDMA. Not a bad start.

AFC South
What I said:
Tennessee Titans - 13-3
Indianapolis Colts - 12-4
Houston Texans - 9-7
Jacksonville Jaguars - 5-11

What Really Happened:
Indy - 14-2
Houston - 9-7
Tennessee - 8-8
Jacksonville - 7-9

Second division in a row that I got a team's record perfect, this time with Houston. And I picked the correct worst team! I suck.

AFC North
What I said:
Pittsburgh Steelers - 13-3
Baltimore Ravens - 12-4
Cincinnati Bengals - 7-9
Cleveland Browns - 2-14

What Really Happened:
Bengals - 10-6
Ravens - 9-7
Steelers - 9-7
Browns - 5-11

Yep. Nothing right. This crow is mighty tasty!

AFC East
What I said:
New England Patriots - 12-4
Buffalo Bills - 7-9
New York Jets - 6-10
Miami Dolphins - 5-11

What Really Happened:
Patriots - 10-6
Jets - 9-7
Miami - 7-9
Buffalo - 6-10

I was on the right track thinking that Miami would take a dive after having such a surprisingly successful season in 2008. Otherwise, not too much good news here. Way to pick a team that made the AFC Championship to finish 6-10, IDIOT.

NFC West
What I said:
Arizona Cardinals - 9-7
St. Louis Rams - 5-11
Seattle Seahawks - 5-11
San Francisco 49ers - 3-13

What Really Happened:
Cardinals - 10-6
San Fran - 8-8
Seattle - 5-11
St. Louis - 1-15

SEAHAWKS. BOOM. But seeing as there was no chance any team other than the Cardinals won this division, I pretty much ate it here.

NFC South
What I said:
Carolina Panthers - 11-5
New Orleans Saints - 10-6
Atlanta Falcons - 8-8
Tampa Bay Bucs - 1-15

What Really Happened:
Saints - 13-3
Atlanta - 9-7
Carolina - 8-8
Bucs - 3-13

At least I knew the Bucs would suck? No wait, that's me that sucks. My bad!

NFC North
What I said:
Green Bay Packers - 13-3
Chicago Bears - 11-5
Minnesota Vikings - 10-6
Detroit Lions - 2-14

What Really Happened:
Vikings - 12-4
Green Bay - 11-5
Chicago - 7-9
Detroit - 2-14

I know the Lions like I know the back of my hand! Oh yeah, and the Bears were gonna be really good this year too...

NFC East
What I said:
Philadelphia Eagles - 12-4
New York Giants - 11-5
Dallas Cowboys - 9-7
Washington Redskins - 5-11

What Really Happened:
Dallas - 11-5
Philly - 11-5
Giants - 8-8
Redskins - 4-12

This is getting depressing.

Playoffs
What I sai... ah forget it. It's too ugly.

Super Bowl XLIV
What I said:
Giants over Chargers

What Really Happened:
Saints over Colts

How 'bout them Giants?!

FINAL VERDICT:

You should never listen to me. My picks resemble the following photograph:
