NFL Season Preview

The NFL Regular Season ends on January 2nd. That means that I will take preseason predictions (playoff teams, regular season awards, etc.) but I won't include playoffs or Super Bowl picks.

Pick the winner of each of the eight NFL conferences. (3 points each)
If your division winner makes the playoffs as a wild card you will get 1 point instead of 3.
