Five surprise teams and story lines this year, any predictions?

I am bored and miss football, so here are five things I could see happening this year in the NFL.

1. I think the Cincinnati Bengals will surprise people with a top 10 offense and a defense that is improved enough to possibly push them into a wildcard spot.

2. I think the Houston Texans will break .500 and finish the season with 10 wins.

3. I honestly do believe, the 49ers will win the NFC West.

4. Darren McFadden breaks 1000 yards rushing and proves he is a NFL running back.

5. Vick plays and makes an impact on a team this season, maybe not as the starting QB but in someway contributes to wins.

Agree:
-that the Bengals will surprise and win more than most fans think they will win

- the 49ers are one of the biggest surprising teams this year too, agreeing the division is ours!

-DF will get his thousand yards, but he wont get 1200 if Garcia starts because Garcia is a great qb and will be prolific in the passing game. Cant say the same for Russell. His sorry butt wont be starting in the second half of the season, somehow, some way. With Russell starting in the beginning, McFadden will rush for 80 to 90 yards a game (average, which is great).

Disagree:

I thought the Texans were going to win the division last year, which shows how much I DONT know about football. We'll see about them; they're hard to figure out!

The Bengals wont be a top 10 offense, nor will they be close to a wild card

Vick, I think isnt playing anywhere this year

no the bengals wont have a top 10 anyways or compete for a wildcard spot.

texans could win 10 if shaub stays healthy

eh niners could win the nfc west i suppose. chips have to fall in our favor big time though

mcfadden isn't rushing for 1000 yards

mike vick wont be playing anywhere this year

So you disagree with everything?

2 and 3 are right, the rest....not even close lol

I agree with everything except the Vick part. Hes gonna be suspended the whole year.

I really do, the guy has to much "football talent", he never was a great QB and never will be, but on the field in open space he makes Reggie Bush look like a slug. He ran for over a 1000 yards with something like six yards per carry, thats insane.

i think the bengals will be better not great or in playoff contention
i agree about the texans
niners i agree aswell
mcfadden does break 1000yards but 1000 yards not a big deal
vick will be suspended

Since I am thinking he was asking for predictions I will offer my own.

1. Brett Favre at the helm of the Vikings will make the playoffs.

2. The Seahawks win the NFC West with a healthy QB and a new coach.

3. Cassel will do well in KC, but the Chiefs as a team will struggle.

4. Falcons win the NFC South.

5. The Bungles, the Broncos and the Raiders will all stink.

#1. Agreed
#2. Disagree. They will finish second to the Niners, but ahead of the fading Tardinals.
#3. Chiefs will be improved, edge out the Chargers in AFC West.
#4. Agreed
#5. Agreed, particularly the Broncos. Safest prediction made: Broncos will stink.

Well, ion number two I really hope I am wrong and you are correct, but for right now I have taken a show me attitude with the York run Niners.

Buffalo wins AFC East
Brady will suck, just like Culpepper did after his knee injury
Bears will win the nfc north
Bengals will have a winning record, but probably will miss out on post season.
Vince Young will start at least 5 games.
Denver will sign Michael Vick

I could go on and on with wild predictions lol

SF will win the nfc west (thats not a wild prediction, that is fact :D)
