Now that I have thoroughly analyzed the hypothetical college football season, I have decided to engage in a similar analysis for the National Football League. Last season, I published my first set of NFL predictions on my blog, and given the popularity those articles garnered, I thought it would be worth doing them again.. Much like my college preview, I have gone through and analyzed every NFL team’s regular season and postseason, as well as selected my disappointment and surprise teams and upsets to watch out for.
Here are my predictions for this year’s NFC playoffs as well as my prediction for Super Bowl LVI. Please read the NFC regular season predictions entry to to see how each team ended up with the seed they have below.
