I thought AJ Green would be good, but not making 5 highlight grabs every goddamn game.

Like most, thought Cam was going to be bad. Kinda was, but created excitement.
Thought Gregg Williams knew what he was doing as a DC.

Im ashamed to put some of these up.
1) Thought it would be a Chargers vs Eagles superbowl. Neither team even made it to the playoffs.
2) Thought Phillip Rivers was going to win MVP. He had his worst year.
3) Thought the Seahawks were going to finish 2-14 and draft Andrew Luck.
4) Thought Bradford was gonna be a top 10 quarterback by the end of the year.
5) Thought the Packers would finish 1st in total defense.

1. Bought in the Buccaneers.
2. I knew the Jets offense would stagnate from the losses in the receiving corps, but still thought they'd be able to play good enough defense to hit the playoffs.
3. Thought the Browns would step up and make drastic improvements.
4. Thought the Eagles would dominate (15-1 was my prediction).
5. Had Gabbert, Ponder, Mallett, Locker ahead of Newton. #idiot
6. Had Kerrigan below Justin Houston, Da'Quan Bowers, and a few others. Same with Jabaal Sheard.

I forgot about this one. I drafted Rivers in every league claiming he was the one gonna beat Marinos record.

4) I thought Tebow would be off the roster this coming offseason (hasn't officially been proven wrong yet, but I think we all know what would happen)
5) I bought into the Air-Falcons hype

You said this seriously?
I missed so hard on AJ Green, who I thought would be affected by being thinner than most of the recent high end WR prospects.
Thought the Jets' passing game would take off with Plax complimenting Holmes and Sanchez going into year 3. I will never overestimate Sanchez again.
There's definitely more but that one stands out.

I actually thought the Browns would make the playoffs. I'm sure they will next year...
Totally wrong about Cam apparently
I was 100% right on everything else I said last yr tho, football and otherwise

Wrong on Cam. Wrong on Tebow (for the moment, though i am certain i will be proven correct eventually). Wrong on Aldon Smith, seriously thought that was a bust for sure. Wrong on Clausen (lol but right on Bradford, thought he was average). Right on McCoy!
I thought the Bucs would be a constant playoff team and that the 49ers were screwed unless they got a better QB.

Thought Miami would play like they did for the last 9 or 10 weeks for the whole season. Thought Henne would bounce back.
Also thought Seattle would be horrible but I'm very happy I was wrong about that.
And I picked the Chargers to be awesome yet again. Only to see them fail horribly, yet again.
I also thought the Giants would be bad and that the Colts would still be OK (although I did assume Manning would come back in the middle of the year).
I did have a good read on many other teams though (HOU, NYJ, TB, KC, DEN, WAS - I pretty much nailed all of them).
