I thought we were going to go 8-8.We should have 10 wins though.
 
I did well with my Dolphins-related predictions, but I did far less well in my fantasy football play (which is prediction-based) and in picking teams that would be surprises (yes, I was the idiot who looked for the Lions to shock people).
 
I sent myself an e-mail with my prediction at the beginning of the year and this is what I had us winning

10-6

To be completely honest at the half way point I was hoping to go 8-8 and after the loss to Cleveland I was just hoping for an improvement over last year (5-11). I'm glad were we ended up though.
 
I predicted around 8-8 so I was pretty close about that.

Now my Superbowl prediction... that is another thing...

I picked... gulp...

Vikings-Ravens. :smackhead
 
i actually said 12-4. i thought we would do good. But, believe it or not i bet indy/sea in SB before the season at 70-1 because i thought it had value. $10 to win $700 and i still have a chance at it!
