Now that the season is over, I can see how well I did in my picks. Last year, I went 18-14. The year before I went 20-12. This year... uh, I don't feel great....
ARIZONA - 7 wins - OVER - CORRECT
Just barely got it. They quietly put together a mediocre year, much without Kolb.
ARIZONA - 7 wins - OVER - CORRECT

ATLANTA - 10 wins - PUSH - CORRECT
Ten seemed just about right and it was.
BALTIMORE - 10.5 wins - OVER - CORRECT
I thought they'd win the division and they did. But what's with those weird losses?
BUFFALO - 5.5 wins - UNDER - WRONG
Aww so close. Congrats, you guys went from begin really awful to semi-awful with good fantasy numbers. Wooo fucking hoo.
CAROLINA - 4.5 wins - UNDER - WRONG
Like everyone else, I didn't think Cam was ready... and was wrong.
CINNCINATTI - 5.5 wins - UNDER - WRONG
Oh sure, finally put together a good season with a rookie QB and a new offense. Unbelievable.
CHICAGO - 8 wins - UNDER - WRONG
They hit 8 exact and would've had more if Cutler didn't get hurt.
CLEVELAND - 7 wins - OVER - WRONG
We all got on the wrong Ohio bandwagon. This team sucks.
DALLAS - 9 wins - OVER - WRONG
I'm happy with being wrong here. Their pain makes mine less palapable.
DENVER - 6 wins - UNDER - WRONG
Someday, I'm going to be a crazy old man wandering the streets, shaking my fist and yelling to no one in particular, "TEBOW! TEBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!"
DETROIT - 8 wins - UNDER - WRONG
Seemed too trendy for me, but they were indeed good. I'm happy for them. They rebuilt well.
GREEN BAY - 11.5 wins - OVER - CORRECT
Did anyone even lose money on this one?
HOUSTON - 9 wins - OVER - CORRECT
They're finally making some progress. If Schaub hadn't gotten hurt they could've done more, too.
INDIANAPOLIS - 9.5 wins - UNDER - CORRECT
I was already leaning towards it before the Manning news was official. Easiest grab for anyone.
JACKSONVILLE - 6.5 wins - UNDER - CORRECT
They couldn't have made this low enough after Garrard was cut, but they didn't.
KANSAS CITY - 7.5 wins - OVER - WRONG
Gah! So close! There's a fix here. Or Tyler Palko.
MIAMI - 7.5 wins - UNDER - CORRECT
I thought Miami's late season surge had cost me this one, but it turns out they were still under. Who the hell thought they were a .500 team before the season? Through the first 6 weeks it looked like they might not win once.
MINNESOTA - 7 wins - UNDER - CORRECT
I did not like seeing McNabb go out like that. But I wasn't suprised.
NEW ORLEANS - 10 wins - OVER - CORRECT
They made it to 11 wins the year before with no running game, no D, and a tougher schedule.
NEW ENGLAND - 11.5 wins - OVER - CORRECT
At least for the regular season, they always take care of things.
NY GIANTS - 9 wins - UNDER - WRONG
Goddammit. I was ready to say yes and then backed off. They really shouldn't be here, but they are.
NY JETS - 10 wins - OVER - WRONG
Aaaaaaaaaaaand everyone is off the Rex bandwagon. And the Sanchize, if they were ever on it.
OAKLAND - 6.5 wins - UNDER - WRONG
They're not terrible, and should have won the division.
PHILADELPHIA - 10.5 wins - OVER - WRONG
Should I repost my intricate theory to how they would easily win 11 games, or should I do something that won't make me murder my neighbor with a pickaxe? Let's just say I bought the hype and bought it hard.... though, I will still contend, they are the best team in the division.
PITTSBURGH - 10.5 wins - UNDER - WRONG
They had a weird year: avoided the post Super Bowl hangover they had before, did mostly everything right, but still couldn't get the division and are kinda shaky at times. I have no idea where they'll be this month.

SAN DIEGO - 10 wins - OVER - WRONG
.... why aren't you firing Norv now? WHY? WHY? WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?
SAN FRANCISCO - 7.5 wins - UNDER - WRONG
They teased everyone for so long, so naturally the year we stop picking them is the year they finally break out. Dicks.
SEATTLE - 6 wins - UNDER - WRONG
Like Arizona, they quietly went on a run to become not terrible. I don't know how Tavaris won 7 games but he did.
ST. LOUIS - 7.5 wins - UNDER - CORRECT
Here's a trendy up-and-comer that I did get right. I didn't think they were this bad, but I knew they needed more.
TAMPA BAY - 8 wins - PUSH - WRONG
Aww fuck. I should've trusted my instincts and just gone under. I knew they were not ready, although I never saw this.
TENNESSEE - 6.5 wins - UNDER - WRONG
I can't believe they almost made the playoffs, but I guess having a real QB, even if he is 50 years old, means something. And Chris Johnson kinda sucked. Weird.
WASHINGTON - 6 wins - UNDER - CORRECT
Not even Shanahan can save this crappy franchise. If only they could play the Giants nine times, they'd be ok.
------------
So, adding that up, that comes to.... 13 out of 32. JESUS I NEED TO RETIRE. NOW. FUCK. NExt year, fuckers.
