Only 3 Bloggers Get It Right In Fansided Predictions On BallHype

The Fansided Network teamed up with BallHype this week to predict the complete power rankings for the NFL at season’s end. Only three bloggers—Raiders, Titans, and Me–chose the Dallas Cowboys as Super Bowl champions. 

You can see the post here and how each blogger picked with a spreadsheet  here

So, out of the entire network of bloggers, only three of us have brains? Maybe that is hard to believe, but how else do you explain some of these selections:

  • Buffalo blogger picks Dallas to finish 12th?  That’s just plain felonious. He should be charged immediately. 
  • Falcons blogger picked Jets to finish fifth? Yikes dude. 
  • Eagles blogger picks his team to finish third? I can hear the echoes of laughs. 
  • San Diego blogger picks Rams to finish second? 
I have to stop because I am nearly having a seizure over here at the airport. The overall favorites to be in the Super Bowl are New England vs Dallas though. The Chargers did place second place, but the Pats cannot play the Chargers in the Super Bowl.

Anytime the Redskins lose is a good day :)

I'm an equal opportunity hate mongerer. I hate all your teams. :)

I just happen to think you guys are a little more grounded in reality when you claim your team is going to be good, and I think Ian is a little bit delusional.  Well, except for the "little bit" part.

Redskins Guy, why do you run a redskins site when you clearly are a dallas fan?  O do you just hate the eagles THAT much?

The NFL is so hard to predict because injuries play such a significant role. Certainly Dallas is in the top five "on paper". One positive, is that it looks like Dallas can endure some defensive inhuries this year and still play at a high level. Last year, secondary injuries were scary. On offense, there is depth at RB. We might see some odd sights at WR this year like Newman, Jones, and Jones playing at times.
I would not label the Cowboys chokers. They do have a little monkey to get off their back and will be a big one if they do not prevail this year. But remember how tough it was for the Colts? Maybe this team is paralleling their rise.

Eagles better than Dallas? Even after McNabb gets injured in game one? Well, the fans are better than the whole NFL's at sadistic pleasures. Instead of that dumb bird their mascot should be a figure of the Marquis de Sade ;-)

paythefan is paying 10k each week

the best game out there in my opinion
no draft,  check it out

No no. Ian's absolutely right. He just accidently deleted the last two words of his post.  It was supposed to read "...at choking."

Even I can admit that it's absurd to rank the Cowboys 12th.  By now, everyone should know that they're destined to have a 12+ win season followed by a disappointing one and done playoff loss.

You'll be eating your words in week 2 Ian....

I put the Eagles ahead of Dallas, because the Eagles are better than the Cowboys.

I have respect for Dallas, but not because of Romo.  When will he be ready?  Will he ever be ready to bring it, really bring it?  Dallas defense will be good if they play the right players.  If they go to the superbowl it won't be because they are putting up big scoring numbers, it will be because of the defense. I'm sticking by the Chiefs.  They might be underdogs, but when you root for your team that is considered the underdogs in almost every game, then anything they do is more than you expected and time to celebrate!  They have a young team that will surprise many this year and oh, yes! they have the potential to upset! Love Bowe, fast confident, and underated.  Look for him to be a solid go to.  Dorsey will make a huge impact and I have to say while Coyle isn't the shit right now, he very well could be.  This team is very young which means a lot of surprises.  If people are giving the Raiders a chance why can't they at least give the Chiefs a shout out!

The dirty bird got it right also....Good Boy!!

Please see my latest post and you can see that I did actually vote for the Cowboys too.

the San Diego guy knows no matter how much talent his team has Norv will never get a Super Bowl win as a HC .... he made his picks at random........ rams 2nd LMFAO

That buffalo blogger must still be mad because of the Dallas loss last year haha...

I put you before my team. You can't ask anything more of me than that.
