PRESEASON HANDICAPPING TIPS Preseason Football is not as exciting for the fans as the regular NFL season since the games do not count toward the standings and, for the most part, the 1st stringers make only cameo appearances. The 4Q of many games (especially the early ones) feature 4th and 5th stringers who were undrafted free agents and are longshots to make the team. While NFL Preseason Football is not as exciting to watch from the fans' standpoint, it is from a gambler's point of view. This is our 31st year in the handicapping business and we can tell you firsthand that it is far easier to predict the outcome of Preseason games than it is for the NFL regular season!! In the book "Ten Keys to a Winning Season", there is a chapter devoted strictly to handicapping NFL Preseason Football. While the chapter is lengthy and contains more information than can be provided in this space, we will share with you some handicapping tips for the upcoming NFL Preseason. Rule #1 - Handicap Preseason far differently than the NFL regular season. The first rule in handicapping Preseason football is to throw out ALL thoughts of how you handicap the regular season. In the NFL regular season all the coaches and players WANT to win and try to win. In the Preseason many coaches just want to evaluate personnel and they care very little about the outcome of the game. Other coaches want to win the game so their team can gain confidence heading into the year. Sometimes there are also talent mismatches on the field due to coaches resting starters and other teams just having better 2nd and 3rd stringers. Week #3 is usually the dress rehearsal week but pay attention as several coaches have veered away from that over the past several seasons. Rule #2 - Beware of coaches that do not care. We touched on this above as some coaches just do not care about the final outcome of Preseason contests. Marv Levy of Buffalo had a team that was almost always among the elite of the AFC, participated in 4 Super Bowls and annually made the playoffs in the '90's. His priority during Preseason was to make sure his veterans were rested and HEALTHY for the upcoming season. Marv compiled a 15-28-1 mark during the Preseason but always opened the regular season strong and it was a philosophy that worked. The same happened with the Dallas Cowboys during their Super Bowl years. From 1992 1995 they won three Super Bowls with two different coaches (Jimmy Johnson and Barry Switzer) who could have cared less about the Preseason and just wanted to keep their players healthy. They were 5-15 in that span in Preseason play!! Rule #3 - Look for coaches who WANT to win. Sometimes a coach takes over a losing team and wants to instill a winning attitude. Jimmy Johnson went 4 0 both SU and in his first year with Dallas as head coach after taking over a poor team. Yes, this was the same JJ who did not care about results a few years later. When Dennis Green took over at Minnesota he wanted to instill a winning attitude and his teams went 8-1 in his first two years with a lot of blowouts. The L2Y Jim Schwartz in Detroit has tried to instill a winning attitude and went 7-1 SU and in preseason action and the Lions did get their first playoff berth since 1999 last year. Coaches can play their starters longer, design gameplans for a specific team (while their opponent plays it straight up with a vanilla offense and defense) and run trick plays and reverses. Coaches do change (like JJ and Green) so try to get a feel each year for how the coach views the importance of Preseason. Rule #4 - Look for teams that want to blitz often. Teams rarely work on blocking schemes vs the blitz during practices. For that reason, it is a very successful tactic in Preseason especially vs O-lines that are a mishmash of different units. Usually there is a gentlemen's agreement about blitzes but some ignore that. Jerry Glanville got his solid Preseason record mainly due to frequent blitzes. Tom Coughlin changed his defense to a blitzing scheme in 1997 and he wanted to work on it during the games. He went 4-0, winning by an average of 13.2 ppg that year. Look for teams that will blitz often and play on them. Rule #5 - Follow the Quarterback Rotations. Coaches usually announce which QB's will play and for how long a day prior to game time. This is a vital part of handicapping as some teams have 2 or 3 very solid veteran QB's while others may be playing an undrafted rookie free agent in the 2nd half who has no shot of making the team. When George Seifert was at SF, he had a QB rotation of Montana, Young and Bono and that was a mismatch vs most teams rotations and he compiled a 21-7 SU record in his first 6 years there. LY Miami had a QB battle with Henne & Moore and both performed well leading the Dolphins to a 3-1 record. You can do what we do searching for stories from all 32 NFL teams and also rely on the numerous scouts in those cities to follow which QB's will play and for how long. Or you could take an easier route and simply call 347-677-1700 on games days and listen to Button #5 where we let you know all the upcoming rotations as they are announced. Rule #6 - Stay on top of changes. Below are charts detailing the total points scored and the margin of victory in pre-season games the L3Y. Some interesting changes are that in the entire 2008 preseason only 4 games had lines over 4.5 pts, only 3 games had lines over 39 with only 11 games decided by over 14 points. LY just 3 years later 12 games had lines higher than 4.5 pts, 13 games had totals higher than 39 and 18 games were decided by over 14 points. Always be able to adapt which is what we do best and is the reason why we are the Nation s #1 documented Preseason Service!

KEY SELECTIONS 4H NEW ORLEANS over Houston - HOU has gotten off to a fast start vs both a Colts team that is a husk of itself without Manning and a Dolphins team adjusting to a new OC with a poor run game. NO in contrast has played the 2 teams from LY s NFC Championship game outgaining GB 477-399 and dominating CHI in the 2H holding them to 80 yards. NO s blitz happy D had 6 sks, 7 tfl and 10 QB hits LW and should get DE Smith (5.5 sks LY) back from susp and CB Porter back from a pre-ssn inj. That doesn t bode well for Schaub as the Texans were 2-7-1 LY when allowing 2 or more sacks with both covers coming at home. LW HOU s def did hold MIA QB Henne to 170 yds (40%, 1-1) a week after he put up 416 yds on NE but this week will be a different story vs Brees who is avg 333 ypg (67%) with a 6-0 ratio. The Saints now stand at 10-3-1 as a non-div HF while Houston is just 2-7 in non-reliant domes. FORECAST: NEW ORLEANS 34 Houston 20 3H Green Bay over CHICAGO - CHI upset GB 20-17 in the 1st meeting LY as a 3 pt HD thanks to 18 penalties by the Packers. In the 2nd meeting GB won 10-3 (10 pt HF) despite CHI playing its starters most of the game to try to keep GB out of the playoffs. In the NFC Championship game, GB won 21-14 as a 3 pt AF as Cutler (knee) was KO d. GB HC McCarthy admitted prior to LW s game that the Packers did zero gameplanning for CAR in the offseason as they had no idea what to expect schematically. They based everything off the ARZ game and found themselves looking at a 13-0 deficit at the half. In the 2H they outscored CAR 30-14 with a 293-261 yd edge (83 on CAR final drive). CHI was kept off balance all day by NO s pass rush giving up 6 sks and 10 QBH s and only converting 2 of 12 on 3rd Dns. Already w/o SS Harris, they lost FS Wright who was playing SS LW (status unknown for both) and Brees capitalized with #3 safety Meriweather still learning the system. GB is much healthier and more dangerous than the team that beat CHI in LY s title game and do so again here. FORECAST: Green Bay 38 CHICAGO 21 OTHER SELECTIONS 2H SEATTLE (+) over Arizona - SEA gets the situational edge at home with ARZ on the road again after coming back from their game vs WAS. SEA has fielded one of the youngest OL s since the 1995 Panthers the L2W and it s shown as they ve allowed 10 sks (16 QBH) on 66 pass att s. SEA has tallied 64 (2.9) and 31 (2.4) yds rushing. While its very early, Kolb (280 ypg 61% 4-1) and Wells (92 5.7) have been what the Cardinals needed going into the season. ARZ s problem is the defense as they have 2 young starting CB s and 2 old safeties who lack speed (8.9 ypa!!). SEA may get big FA addition WR Rice (torn labrum) into the mix to give them a full set of skill players. SEA QB Jackson has been lukewarm at best so far TY but he gets a break after facing SF who got to gameplan for months for the opener and PIT who blew them out of the water LW. With the ARZ team travelling again and we ll take the Seahawks here as our UGLY DOG (26-17 - incl an outright upset winner on BUF earlier this year!). FORECAST: SEATTLE 27 Arizona 23 2H CAROLINA over Jacksonville - CAR comes into this game with tons of confidence due to the surprising play of Newton who got a lot of work in prior to training camp with former CAR QB Weinke. In his 2 starts he s posted 854 yds (63%) with a 3-4 ratio with 14 pass plays of 20+ yds vs 30 all of LY for CAR. While still very raw, Newton is doing all the right things like hot read adjustments on blitzes and CAR had a 214-126 yd edge over GB LW at the half. Unlike Clausen LY, Newton has the backing of key veterans like WR Smith (14 rec 23.9) adding to his confidence. While Garrard was an avg NFL QB, he was one of the leaders in the lockerroom. McCown barely got the Jags past TEN in Wk 1 and the Jets shut him down LW (59 yds, 32%, 0-4). JAX was outgained 173-97 at the half and simply doesn t have a game changer outside of Jones-Drew (88 yds 4.9) offensively. We ll side with the more confident and surprisingly explosive home team here even though Jones-Drew will get his yards vs 2 rookie DT s.

NE at DET -3' 10-34 L 44' U did so despite having the #31 rated D in the NFL and having NYG -8 17-18 L 39' U 66 starts lost to injury throughout the year. As we mentioned in the Post Draft Issue of Power Sweep, we like the upgrade on defense including four DC's in the first three rounds spent NO -1' 27-24 W 36 O on that side of the ball and each of the players that Belichick at ATL +1' 28-10 L 37 O selected provided value. We will call for the Patriots to win STL -7' 35-36 L 37' O their third straight AFC East Title and they are our pick to at NYG +3 17-20 T 37 T win the Super Bowl. We went again the grain with the Jets LY as they were preseason Super Bowl favorites by most but we did not put them at HOU +2' 16-20 L 35 O CIN -6' 27-7 W 36 U in that category. The Jets were a team in disarray at the end at NYG -2' 17-3 W 34' U of LY, dropping their final 3 games to fall to 8-8 and missing PHI +3' 14-24 L 36 O the playoffs altogether. All of the off field talk is about QB Tim NYG -3 16-31 L 33' O at CAR +1 9-3 W 34 U WAS -3' 11-16 L 34' U at PHI +1' 21-17 W 34 O at CHI +3 3-10 L 35' U at DEN +7 10-24 L 37 U JAX -3 35-32 T 35' O DET +2' 6-16 L 39 U Tebow but they made some solid additions and their schedule goes from 9th toughest in the NFL down to #24. The Jets are the trendy pick this year for 3rd in the East with almost nobody calling for them to make the playoffs so we are once again going against the grain in their forecast picking them 2nd in the East and as a Wild Card team. Last year the Bills started out 5-2 and looked like playoff contenders but the bottom dropped out as they limped to a 1-8 finish. They had the #26 defense in the NFL and were effected by injuries on the offense including losing top RB Fred Jackson for the final six games. They made some significant additions during the offseason on defense and appear to be a borderline playoff team. They are more talented than last year, had an amazing 70 starts lost to injury and go from playing the #5 schedule to the #27 schedule. Buffalo hasn't topped the 7 wins since 2004 but we'll call for them to do this season. 13-3 14-2 10-6 11-5 9-7 11-5 7-7-2 9-7 11-5 13-3 5-10-1 8-8 2 8 3 5 31 25 11 10 10.7 12.8 8.9 6.3 16.9-2.8 77.1 56.4 Div Finish 1st 1st 1st T-1st CCH... 1 at WAS +3 17-42 L 32' O IND -3 34-21 W 34 O CIN +4 35-20 W 36' O -19.6-56.8-66.7-20.9 at DET +4' 23-28 L 51 T Div FinishT-3rd 4th 4th 4th CCH... 22 The Dolphins tried hard in the offseason to acquire Peyton POST DRAFT GRADE: C- at ATL +2 28-23 W 33' O Manning and then Matt Flynn but came up short in both CAR -6 20-10 W 34 U areas. Their #1DC Ryan Tannehill looks like a prospect at 6-10 7-9 7-9 11-5 at TB +3' 13-17 L 36 U that position and not ready to start immediately.

Unfortunately, the D had its worst game of the year when they lost in the 1st RD of the playoffs at DEN. The Steelers did benefit from 3 net close wins and their schedule goes from 24th toughest up to #9. On the positive side of the ledger, they were -13 in TO's LY and their +100.6 ypg was 8th best in the NFL. The Steelers have tied for 1st in the AFC North in each of the last 2 years and while their record may be weaker this year, we will call for them to do it again in 2012 but this time win the tiebreaker vs Baltimore. Ray Lewis just got another year older at LB and 2011's NFL Def MVP Terrell Suggs suffered an Achilles injury. While he's attempting to come back late in the year, even if that happens he may not be 100% leaving a huge hole on the defense. They do have good, young talent on offense but were only +49.8 ypg LY and they go from facing the #28 schedule in the NFL to the #13. They also had just 23 starts lost to injury LY, the 8th lowest. Baltimore was a dropped td pass away from appearing in the Super Bowl but we have them tied for 1st in the North this year and projected with 10 wins after a pair of 12 wins seasons. The Bengals have gone from 7 wins, down to 4, up to 10, down to 4 and back up to 9 LY. We think that yo-yo trend will continue in 2012. After a team is +5 wins from the previous season (4-12 to 9-7 LY) their record has decreased 75% of the time. Andy Dalton is a solid QB and is in his 2nd year as starter but only one of the Bengals offensive or defensive units rank in the upper half of the NFL. Cincinnati goes from facing the #27 schedule all the way up to 5th toughest and did have just 22 starts to injury LY (6th lowest). They are a favorite of a FG or more in only 2 games which will be added pressure on a QB with only 1 season of experience. A quick check of the early lines that were posted in the offseason show CLE as a dog in all 16 gms TY. Yes, the schedule is difficult and they go from taking on the 15th toughest to the 4th toughest. There are some factors pointing in CLE's favor. Their D LY was actually respectable as they yielded just 332 ypg (#10). Their offense was woeful but got some significant upgrades incl two #1 and two #2 DC's who all will see starting time TY in QB Brandon Weeden, RB Trent Richardson, WR Josh Gordon and LT Mitchell Schwartz. They should have one of the more improved offenses in the NFL. We will call CLE, despite the tough sked and the Vegas early lines, to have the most wins s/'07. 8-8 11-5 9-7 9-7 7-9 9-7 9-7 7-9 10-6 12-4 7-8-1 9-7 25 11 20 16 5 3 1 16 0.9 3.9 7.0 3.1-0.3 59.5 68.7 2.3 Div Finish 2nd 2nd 2nd 3rd 6-10 4-12 6-10 7-9 6-9-1 7-7-2 8-7-1 7-9 10-6 7-9 6-10 9-7 14 25 30 25 26 24 19 14-3.9-8.9-4.3-0.4 22 21 17 12 15 6 22 15 1.0-3.8-1.9 1.8-27.8 13.8-11.8 16.6 Div FinishT-3rd 3rd 3rd T-1st 12-4 12-4 9-7 12-4 7-9 9-6-15-10-1 9-7 6-10 7-9 9-6-1 8-8 12 14 7 22 1 2 5 1 6.1 8.9 2.8 7.8 100.6 68.5 66.0 74.8 Div FinishT-1st T-1st T-2nd 1st 12-4 12-4 9-7 11-5 8-7-1 8-7-1 8-7-1 12-4 9-7 7-9 6-9-1 9-6-1 15 22 13 18 3 10 3 2 7.0 5.4 8.1 8.8 49.8 4.0 50.7 62.9 Div FinishT-1st T-1st T-2nd 2nd 3.6-1.4 7.8-80.1 Div Finish 3rd 4th 1st 3rd 4-12 5-11 5-11 4-12 7-7-2 5-10-1 10-6 7-9 5-11 9-7 7-9 5-9-2 9-7 4-12 10-6 4-11-1 8-6-2 7-8-1 7-9 7-9 10-6 8-8 7-9 6-10 20 20 24 32 7 15 4 12 1.3-4.6 0.9-10.0 29 29 32 31 10 22 31 26-5.6-3.8-8.1-7.4-43.6-60.4-129.1-107.4 Div Finish 4th 3rd 4th 4th B POST DRAFT GRADE: QB... 2 RB... 29 WR... 4 OL... 2 DL... 16 LB... 15 DB... 25 ST... 5 POST DRAFT GRADE: A- QB... 16 RB... 25 WR... 20 OL... 12 DL... 7 LB... 6 DB... 1 ST... 8 CCH... 5 POST DRAFT GRADE:B+ QB... 27 RB... 15 WR... 29 OL... 5 DL... 15 LB... 24 DB... 26 ST... 15 QB... 29 RB... 20 WR... 32 OL... 22 DL... 10 LB... 13 DB... 24 ST... 6 CCH... 28 POST DRAFT GRADE: B QB... 7 RB... 24 WR... 6 OL... 19 DL... 12 LB... 2 DB... 8 ST... 28 CCH... 4 POST DRAFT GRADE: C- QB... 11 RB... 6 WR... 22 OL... 6 DL... 5 LB... 10 DB... 2 ST... 22 CCH... 7 POST DRAFT GRADE: C- QB... 20 RB... 30 WR... 14 OL... 15 DL... 18 LB... 17 DB... 18 ST... 13 CCH... 18 POST DRAFT GRADE: B QB... 31 RB... 9 WR... 30 OL... 17 DL... 30 LB... 18 DB... 9 ST... 19 CCH... 23

With all of those indicators pointing upwards, they should get much better QB play with Andrew Luck at the helm than they did LY with Curtis Painter/Dan Orlovsky/Kerry Collins. The defense should also remain healthier and while the Colts are a much improved teams, they do have a rookie QB and a lot of newcomers and may only double LY's win total. By reading our Post Draft Issue, you know that teams which earn "A" grades improved their record 79% of the time. From '07-'10 SD started the season 1-2, 2-3, 2-3 and 1-3. LY was atypical as they jumped out of the box 4-1 but lost 6 in a row. They still finished 8-8 and in a 3-way tie for 1st in the West. They were the only team in the league that outscored their foes (406-377) and the only one to have a positive yardage difference. Rivers had an off year, "only" throwing for 63% with a 27-20 ratio. SD was -7 in TO's, had 2 net close losses and 53 starts lost to injury. The Chargers are now under the radar despite actually being favored in 12 of their 16 games and are and our surprise team to win the AFC West and are a legitimate contender for the AFC Title. KC did a tremendous job in '10 as they were the shocking winners of the AFC West going from 3 straight last place division finishes and a combined record of 10-38 to 10-6. We were not high on KC LY as they had to face 7 tms that ranked in our top 10 at the start of the yr. QB Cassel missed the last 7 games with injury and while KC finished in the basement at 7-9, they were just 1 game from a We are not huge fans of Carson Palmer. He was an int machine at Cincinnati and while he only got signed in wk 6 and still started the last 10 he had another negative ratio (13-16). The Raiders have yet another new HC and did not do a great deal in the offseason to improve. OAK did not have a selection until late 3rd RD and lost more than they gained in free agency and we graded them a "D" in the Post Draft Issue so they have an 78% chance of a weaker record. The Raiders won 8 games LY and were +5 in net close wins, certainly a cause for concern. They clearly look like the weakest team in the AFC West and we'll project only 4 wins. 10-6 6-10 9-7 8-8 11-5 6-9-1 7-7-2 8-8 POST DRAFT GRADE: B+ QB... 9 RB... 2 5-11 11-5 6-10 10-6 WR... 8 13 3 4 3 OL... 8 2 30 13 22 DL... 8 LB... 5 6.4-2.3 3.4-1.8 DB... 3 86.4 9.7 58.2 45.5 ST... 30 Div Finish 1st T-3rd 2nd 3rd CCH... 17 POST DRAFT GRADE: D+ 9-7 6-10 8-8 13-3 QB... 24 RB... 3 QB Blaine Gabbert hit just 50.8% with a 12-11 ratio and the JAX at NE +3' 12-47 L 35 O offense finished dead last despite having the league's top rusher ATL -3 15-13 L 37 U in Maurice Jones-Drew. They bring in Chad Henne (31 career at BUF +3 32-35 T 35' O starts) but he left MIA with a 31-37 ratio. Their D was actually #6 STL -3 17-24 L 37' O in the NFL in '11 and they held 8 opponents to 17 points or less. While this team won just 5 games LY and indicators are pointing upwards they do have a new HC and it looks like a rebuilding at PHI +2' 27-28 W 34 O year. The schedule doesn't set up well as they have the 10th MIA -2 26-27 L 36 O hardest home slate and while they have the 2nd easiest road at TB -2' 19-13 W 37 U schedule they've only won 1 of their last 10 games away from ATL -3 13-9 W 37 U EverBank.

Once again we expect the Giants to improve their record which would be rare for a Super Bowl winner, but it is always tough to 8-7-1 8-7-1 12-4 8-7-1 repeat. NYG were a banged up team at the start of LY that played better once the DL got healthier as they were outscored during 8 5 8 7 the reg ssn (400-394) but allowed just 14 ppg in their final 6 gms. 27 7 13 5 The NYG were just +8.7 ypg LY and did benefit from 2 net close -0.4 2.9-1.6 8.3 wins and were +7 in TO's but should remain healthier and are a 8.7 69.6 41.1 63.9 prime time contender for the East Title. Div Finish 1st T-1st 3rd 1st Dallas appeared to have the East wrapped up at 7-4 but lost 4 of their final 5 games including a pair to the Giants and missed the playoffs. This year 5 of their final 7 games 8-8 6-10 11-5 9-7 are at home so they should have a better finish and have a 5-10-1 7-9 9-7 7-9 much improved secondary with the additions of #1 DC Morris Claiborne and ex-kc FS CB Brandon Carr. The Cowboys 6-10 13-3 6-10 9-7 are currently an underdog in 9 games with 7 of those as a 11 7 2 13 3 pt dog or less so winning the tight ones will be imperative. 14 23 9 8 DAL was #11 on offense and #14 on defense last year and 1.4-2.6 6.9-0.2 is a playoff contender nearly missing out on one of our very 32.3 12.5 83.5 50.2 special Post Draft Issue "A" grades. The Redskins have not won the NFC East since 1999 finishing last in 4 straight years. They made a big off-season trade positioning themselves to draft Robert Griffin III and have some signs pointing in their favor as they were -14 in TO's and had 65 starts lost to injury last year. The Redskins have the misfortune of playing in the powerful NFC East with 3 legitimate playoff and Super Bowl contenders and face the 3rd toughest schedule in the NFL with 6 of their 8 units ranking in the bottom 10 of our rankings. After their bye they have 3 road games and host PHI, the NYG, BAL and DAL making it possibly the leagues toughest finish. NFC NORTH FORECAST PROJECTED FINISH IN ( ) The big question most of LY was whether the Packers would at CLE +2' 17-27 L 35 O go undefeated with only 3 of their first 13 games decided ARZ -5 28-20 W 39 O by 7 or less but then they were stunned by KC. At 15-1 they at IND -9' 24-21 L 38' O were shocked at home in the playoffs by the Giants for a KC -1 20-19 T 37 O quick exit. GB's D figures to rebound as after ranking #2 and #5 in the NFL In '09 and '10 they plummeted to #32 LY. GB was +24 in TO's, had 4 net close wins and shockingly, de- CLE -3 24-27 L 34 O spite their record, were outgained LY (by 6.4 ypg). While the at SEA +2' 27-24 W 40 O Packers probably will not match LY's 15 win total, the results IND -3' 59-24 W 44 O in the playoffs figure to be better and they are the preseason at KC +5' 13-17 W 40 U Super Bowl favorites. BUF -3 10-3 W 35' U at NYG +4' 13-41 L 35 O at TEN +3 13-14 W 37 U CLE E 24-14 W 36' O at SD +2' 10-25 L 33' O OAK -2' 17-32 L 33' O ARZ -3' 9-14 L 38' U at CLE -2' 10-13 L 36' U CIN -3' 34-3 W 35 O at CLE +2' 30-28 W 38 O NE +3' 34-10 W 44' U at BUF -2' 16-6 W 39 U at PIT +3 7-23 L 33' U at DEN +3 25-20 W 36 O CLE -2' 35-27 W 38 O BUF -4' 28-23 W 51 T at TEN +3 3-14 L 34 U at SEA -3 20-7 W 37' U DAL +1 17-23 L 36' O HOU -3' 28-0 W 37' U at STL +2' 28-7 W 31' O at SF +2' 10-15 L 35' U SEA -5 24-13 W 39' U DEN -4 31-24 W 35 O LY the Bears' season was done in by injuries with QB Jay Cutler missing the last 6 and RB Matt Forté missing the last 4 and they went just 1-5 down the stretch. The same offense that avg'd 32 ppg in a 5 gm stretch with both players healthy avg'd only 13 ppg the L/5. They add in WR Brandon Marshall who had great success with Cutler in Denver upgrading the Bears weak spot. While the D is a year older, it is still strong and they go from facing the #8 schedule down to the #30. We give the Bears a decent chance at unseeding the Packers in the NFC North and their home finale on Dec 16th may be for the division title. Detroit won their final 4 games in 2010 and kept that momentum going LY with a 10-6 mark giving them a 14-6 stretch in the reg ssn. They were bounced from the playoffs in New Orleans but have a great nucleus on the defensive front 7, QB Matt Stafford and WR Calvin Johnson. The Lions face 8 teams this season that we project to be in the postseason and LY were just 2-6 vs teams that made the playoffs. While DET is a legitimate threat to make the playoffs a 2nd straight time, after not having been there since 1999, and having improved their record by 4 wins in EACH of the L2Y we'll call for them to come up just short. In 2009 the Vikings were the NFC Central Champs and playing in the NFC Title game coming up just short of the Super Bowl. LY they lost Adrian Peterson for 4 of the final 6 games and went to a rookie QB in Christian Ponder. They plummeted to 3-13. They had an amazing 7 net close losses giving them an 80% chance of an improved record this year and were -28.5 ypg (pretty good for a 3-13 team). Their schedule was the 2nd toughest in the NFL LY and is now #19. All of those factors point to an improved record but they play in the same division with 3 playoff caliber teams so the Vikings are an easy pick for the basement.

As they both enter their 5th year they at PIT +3 16-34 L 35' O figure to make a breakthrough in the playoffs. ATL dropped BAL -3 7-21 L 38 U from 13-3 to 10-6 LY and bring a new set of coordinators incl Mike Nolan as DC. They have good speed on offense and a capable D which finished #12 last season. With the turmoil KC -3 20-10 W 34' U in New Orleans, we give the Falcons an excellent shot at NE -1 10-28 L 37 O winning the division. Since the NFC South started in 2002 no at MIA +2' 16-6 W 38 U team has ever repeated with ATL taking the Title in 2010 and at JAX +3 9-13 L 37 U 2004 and this would make the tenth straight season.

The Saints outscored their opponents by an avg of 13.0 ppg and were +98.7 ypg. Unfortunately, they must now deal with suspensions from the Bounty scandal incl losing their HC then having 9-7 8-8 8-8 10-4-2 their interim HC being forced to have an interim HC for 6 games. 1 6 1 1 The continuity does not appear to be in great shape. Keep in 24 4 25 23 mind LY when Sean Payton when inj and did not call plays, the offense was not as effective. Talent-wise they may be the best in 13.0 4.8 10.6 4.4 the South and they are currently favored in 12 of their 16 games 98.7 66.3 46.1 71.2 but the coaching turmoil may be too much to overcome. Div Finish 1st 2nd 1st 4th The NFL is a bounce back league. LY TB was the flavor of the month as they had a lot of young talent and were coming off a 10-6 season. We were not as high on them calling for their record to drop and it did, all the way down to 4-12. QB Josh Freeman, who was looked at as one of the rising stars of the NFL after 2010, had a poor 16-22 ratio. We look for Freeman to improve and Greg Schiano steps into a good situation as their schedule goes from 3rd toughest in the NFL to #18. They are currently favored in just 2 of their games but Tampa figures to be an under the radar team that could even flirt with a winning record. Cam Newton had a fantastic rookie season with the Panthers yet for all of his offensive heroics (CAR #7 offense) NYG -2' 20-10 W 33 U at MIA +6 10-20 L 34 U they still finished just 6-10. CAR was +12.2 ypg. They had 4 at CIN +3 13-24 L 34 O net close losses LY and 56 starts lost to injury. The Panthers PIT -2' 17-33 L 34' O figure to be improved, especially on defense (#28 LY) but the schedule goes from #22 up to the 8th toughest. They actually were minus 5 net starters in FA and teams that were at BAL +3 12-17 L 34 U +4 wins from the previous season (2-14 to 6-10) have had a NYJ -1 3-9 L 34 U weaker record 75% of the time. This season with the tougher TEN -2' 15-7 W 37 U schedule the Panthers might not make the rise that most at PIT +6' 3-19 L 37 U folks expect and we'll call for the same 6-10 finish. NFC WEST FORECAST PROJECTED FINISH IN ( ) LY San Francisco, coming off a 6-10 season, was inspired by at NO +2' 3-24 L 35' U Coach Jim Harbaugh nearly getting to the Super Bowl coming OAK -2' 17-3 W 34' U up 3 points short in the NFC Title game. They did have a lot HOU +4' 7-30 L 36 O of factors in their favor last year including a whopping +28 in at SD +3 20-17 W 38 U TO's and 4 net close wins. The Niners appear to be an even stronger team this season and look to be head and shoulders above the rest in the NFC West. They probably will not catch at IND -3 37-17 W 34 O the same amount of breaks they did LY so they won't match MIN -2' 15-10 W 35' U LY's 13 win total but they must be classified as a legitimate Super Bowl contender and should improve on offense and have at OAK +2' 28-24 W 37' O SD -3 17-14 T 36 U another stout defense (#4 LY). at OAK +3 24-18 W 32' O at GB +5 20-28 L 39 O SD +3 31-34 T 41 O DEN -3 26-7 W 40' U HOU +2' 19-16 W 33' O at TEN +4 10-24 L 37' U at CHI +3' 14-9 W 38' U WAS -4' 20-10 W 37 U at SD +3 24-17 W 35 O MIN -3 7-20 L 37' U at DEN +5' 20-23 W 37 O OAK -3' 20-3 W 37 U TEN -4 20-18 L 35 O GB -2' 24-27 L 40 O at MIN +5 13-24 L 39' U at OAK +3' 24-27 W 37' O IND -7 33-10 W 33' O TEN -3' 17-16 L 37 U at KC -2 14-10 W 35 U at JAX +3 24-17 W 37' O MIN -2' 7-28 L 31' O at CLE +4 19-17 W 35' O at NE +7' 36-35 W 37' O BAL -3 27-21 W 38 O The Cardinals signed Kevin Kolb LY and were just 3-6 with him and despite relying on John Skelton as the starting QB in the other games, they went 5-2 they actually went 7-2 over their final 9 games to finish 8-8. They add in Michael Floyd to team with Larry Fitzgerald giving them an explosive receiver combo and were -13 in TO's last year. They do face the 12th toughest schedule in the NFL and might not match LY's 8 win total, but look like a better team. The key to the season will be winning on the road as they were 3-13 the L2Y and are a dog in all 8 TY with an avg line of over a TD. Currently the Cards are only favored in 4 of their 16 games. The Seahawks won a division title in Pete Carroll's first year in 2010 but it was with just a 7-9 record and they were outscored 407-310 and were -70.8 ypg. LY the Seahawks outscored their foes 321-315 and improved their ypg (-28.4) but this time their 7-9 record was only good enough for 3rd place. SEA has 3 long flights to the East this year and have home games vs NE, GB, DAL, SF and the NYJ and are currently only favored in 5 of their 16 games. SEA did have 3 net close losses and 60 sts lost to inj, but the schedule has us calling for a 5th straight losing season. There are no ifs, ands or buts about it - the Rams are one of the most improved teams in the NFL. Of course, when you finish 2-14 and you are outscored by 13.4 ppg, there is only one way to go. We look for a much better year from Sam Bradford as he should get better protection from the O-line (#32 sks all'd w/ 55) and Jeff Fisher always gets the most out of his teams. STL had 4 net close losses and 41 starts lost to injury LY. It would not surprise us at all if the Rams moved up to as high as 2nd in the West but they do have a lot of ground to make up.
