Make 3 bold predictions for 2012

[StateProperty]

1. They must go against the consensus opinion
2. You must actually believe them
3. Be prepared to defend them


Can be about a team, player, coach, fantasy related, whatever

[TheNaturalWR]

Darren McFadden plays all 16 games.

The Texans win the Super Bowl. (part homer)

Dez Bryant explodes for 1300+ yards and 10+ TDs and establishes himself as a top 5 wide receiver.

The 49ers go 8-8.

[StateOfMind12]

1. Tim Tebow will start over Mark Sanchez at some point
2. Eagles miss the post-season again
3. Bills make the post-season

This isn't really bold considering everyone and their mother is predicting the same thing.

Thinking outside of the box doesn't mean saying stupid shit "jr". Philip Hunt is gonna lead a team that has a top 5 defensive end and one of the best one tricky ponies in the NFL in sacks? Please. It clearly says in the thread that be prepared to defend your statement. Now, enlighten me.

[EricGordon23]

1) Rams make the playoffs

2) Philly doesn't make the playoffs

3) New Orleans wins the superbowl

[GatorKid117]

1. Raiders and Titans win their division

2. Victor Cruz fails to get 1000k and more than 7 TDs

3. Brandon Pettigrew catches >10 TDs

Ok, then replace it with Cam Newton's QB rating will be under 80.

[blacknapalm]

bold eh?

eric decker becomes a top 10 WR

seahawks make the playoffs behind wilson who causes a stir due to his 4th quarter comebacks

lesean mccoy wins the rushing title (ok, not too bold but i doubt it's the consensus)

reggie wayne has a resurgent year...1200+ yards again

ryan mathews...stays healthy and misses no more than one game

vick gets hurt but foles fills in nicely, creating yet another 'controversy'

SD fails to make the playoffs and norv turner finally gets fired

jared cook becomes a top 3 TE, only behind gronk and graham and he ends up with more receiving yards than one of them

titus young becomes the new victor cruz and breakout WR

bradford leads STL to the playoffs with a 3000+ yard/20+ TD season

bellichick coaches two games in a non-grey sweater

cowboys vs. ravens = SB. ravens win, ray lewis gives a KG-esque interview, praises flacco and announces his retirement on the spot

...half or more of these will probably be wrong but that's why they go in this thread

Trent Cole and Jason babin have been injury prone, it's clearly not impossible.

Two NFC West teams making the playoffs? That may be the boldest prediction yet.

[TheSilentKiller]

1. Three NFC North teams finish with 10 or more wins (Packers, Lions, Bears)

2. Titus Young finishes as a top 15 fantasy receiver

3. Fred Davis finishes at a top 4 fantasy tight end
