Here we go!
If you want to know who will be in the Super Bowl, you are about to find out. I can say that with a good amount of confidence as the past two years I have picked at least one conference champion correctly and last year I correctly chose the Green Bay Packers to win it all.
2009/10 Prediction: Indianapolis Colts over New York Giants ended up being New Orleans Saints over Indianapolis Colts
2010/11 Prediction: Green Bay Packers over Baltimore Ravens ended up being Green Bay Packers over Pittsburgh Steelers
2011/12 Here we go
First the standings, I went week by week marking winners and losers to come up with the most accurate predictions that I could. There were a few errors and missed games so I balanced those out, but I feel confident in my choices.

Three things leap out:
The Rams 11-5? The Armchair Quarterback rejoices.
The Chargers 11-5? I don't see it but Whit will be happy.
The Packers lose to the Patriots in the Super Bowl? Never!
Did the Armchair QB come over to Blogger?
I went through each schedule and I was as surprised as you to see the end result. The Rams are in the easiest division in the NFL and I don't see any improvement in San Fran or Arizona as of yet. I also think that Seattle downgraded at QB, the Rams could go 5-1 in the division and that will be a big part of them winning 11.
Same for the Chargers. They made some good additions to beef up the D, but they did lose a great Defensive Coach in Ron Rivera. They will also have the big WR Vincent Jackson all season this time, and the Raiders have let most of their team go to Free Agency. The division will be much easier for them this year, I'd give them 5 or 6 division wins easily.
Repeating is tough, and although I think Green Bay is still the best team in the NFC I never predict a repeat. I didn't even do it with the Patriots.
And you will notice that while I did give the hated Eagles the 1 seed, I had them lose in their first playoff game. I'd rather see them get their hearts broken in the playoffs then muddle through a 4 win season. haha
You may have also noticed that the Saints and Packers both finished 12-4 but the Saints won the tie breaker, that may have something to do with my Week 1 predictions....
Bryan:
Here in San Diego, we are told that the Chargers will win the Super Bowl this year. :^)
