My 2013 Season Picks


So I haven't posted here in quite some time, since I'm now writing primarily for Pro Football Focus (you can find all of my offseason articles here). But a bunch of folks have asked me for my 2013 predictions, so I figured here is as good a place to put them as any. If I'm right, expect me to link back to this quite a few times. If I'm wrong, then I'll drop this faster than Danny Trevathan crossing a goal line.
