Fantasy Football: Team by Team Fantasy Predictions

Team by Team Fantasy Predictions

Everyone thinks they're an expert. They make predictions, which are usually wrong, but when they are right they feel victorious. Here is one prediction for each team for the upcoming 2010 season, and hopefully I get one right.

AFC East

Buffalo Bills – C.J. Spiller will lead the Bills in receptions, touchdowns and return yards

Miami Dolphins –Brandon Marshall finishes the season as the number three fantasy wide receiver

New England Patriots – Laurence Maroney scores 10 rushing touchdowns making him an excellent flex play all season

New York Jets – Dustin Keller finishes the season as a top 10 tight end and leads the Jets in receptions and touchdowns

AFC North

Baltimore Ravens – Joe Flacco throws for over 4,000 yards and over 30 touchdowns, finishing the season as a top five fantasy quarterback

Cincinnati Bengals – Chad Ochocinco and Terrell Owens combine for less then 15 touchdowns

Cleveland Browns – Not only will the Browns finish as a top 10 defense, but they will finish ahead of the Jets

Pittsburgh Steelers – Hines Ward finishes the season with 1,100 yards and 10 touchdowns.

You definitely went out on a limb on some of these, which I support. I think that CJ will be the #1 player this season, only because I don’t trust VY (especially to throw 20 TD’s). I think this knocks Rodgers down but I do believe he is a top 5 player this season.

Kevin Smith

Laughable prediction. Kevin Smith is no more then a change of pace back if he even gets on the field.

Marshall

I like Marshall this year as well….could be a positive for the Dolphins running game as well.

And the same goes for Flacco, especially after last night’s game where he threw 30+ times in the first half. Maybe he did so because he isn’t playing next week? not sure.

I like Cutler to throw for over 4,000 yds as well.
KC did run the ball alot in Friday night’s game.

A lot of bold an questionable predictions.

The Arizona prediction is suspect at best. Beanie Wells is not running well this preseason, and the team has never been a big running team.

Housh will not come close to approaching those numbers. He has back issues and quarterback issues. Not to mention he is getting old.

Steven Jackson has legitimate back issues and plays on arguably the worst team in the league. He has an immense amount of talent, but to project him in the top three is irresponsible.

The injury prone Knowshon Moreno will have a difficult time reaching those projections in that abysmal offense.

Owen Daniels has just been cleared to practice. Projecting him as a top five tight end is rather bold.

Hines Ward will be without Big Ben for at least a quarter of the season and no longer has Santonio Holmes to take attention away from him. I highly doubt he comes close to matching your projections.

Laurence Maroney is never going to be a decent flex option. Period.
