2015 Official Predictions thread

[r00k]

1. Predict your team's record ... in that this is the first year without Lozier and we are breaking in a mid-range rookie QB ... we are OPTIMISTICALLY hoping to win 5 games
2. Predict the winner of your division .. WV
3. Predict the winner of your conference .. Murf
4. Predict the Imperial Bowl winner ... Murf
5. Predict a breakout player on your team .. better be all of them
6. Predict your team MVP ... probably Preston Welch on D
7. Predict whatever you want ... this will be a long, long season for the Vipers ... looking forward to a year under the belt and bolstering to a competitive stage in next year's draft or maybe I will have to borrow Jave's three year plan!

Love Vito's confidence!

I'll trade Kozure a 1st if we can switch the outcome of his prediction. Heck, I'll give a 2nd to make it come true as is.

Markc... you realize you chose an AFC team to win the NC Conference (assuming your "A)" and "N)" are the conferences)?

been absent lately. hoping to get some predictions in soon.

BTW - The IFL has an active waiting list right now and recently had a GM step down to accommodate the demand. I'm not against a new release but we don't need no stinking new game!

1. Predict your team's record - 8-8
2. Predict the winner of your division - Lawrence
3. Predict the winner of your conference - Tulsa
4. Predict the Imperial Bowl winner - Cleveland (dark horse pick)
5. Predict a breakout player on your team - I'm gonna have to say LB Russell Hennessy. I don't really have any "prime" break out candidates. Maybe Marcus Stazer does well, but he did his thing in his last yr in Hartford.
6. Predict your team MVP - Dwight Burger. Burger is being tracked down by father time, but we have no other player who impacts our team as much as he does.
7. League MVP and Offensive player of the year - Jay Caro
8. Defensive player of the year - Jose Mangum
9. Jave's 12yr plan starts to unfold. The newly named Devildogs make the playoffs.
10. SLC also makes the playoffs
11. Breakout player of the year - QB Alfred Sullivan. LOU made a great move by securing what I believe to be a straight up stud @ QB. who does he throw to?????????????? well........he'll find a way to get by.
12. Offensive Rookie of the year - WR Brad Harris
13. Defensive Rookie of the year - SS Harvey Ingle

[Kozure]

13. Defensive Rookie of the year - SS Harvey Ingle

Not sure if I'm going to start him. Very tempted, though. He's developing rapidly.

This may sound strange, but he really seems to like Lionel Garret at the moment. we'll see soon i guess haha

1. Predict your team's record: Not risking a jinx here but I like my odds.
2. Predict the winner of your division: Not risking a jinx here but I like my odds.
3. Predict the winner of your conference: Not risking a jinx here but I like my odds.
4. Predict the Imperial Bowl winner: Not risking a jinx here. I'll roll my dice with anyone.
5. Predict a breakout player on your team: Roderick Amos of course. He's got the keys and Stanfield might've retired via holdout.
6. Predict your team MVP: What a tough choice. In fact I can't even make it.
7. In the spirit of friendly trash talk: SLC goes closer to 8-8 than 13-3
8. Beasts get a hell of a deal for Lenny Snograss by the trading deadline. 1st, 2nd, and 4th gets it done.

[VitoStallion]

SLC WILL NOT GO 8-8 !!! 8)

I chose 13-3 because I think this roster is primed for a dominating campaign---not just winning but dominating! I finally have all the pieces to my attack in place Blaze, it's time to take the next step.

NFC West division-mates: SLC is coming to eat the whole pie this year, if you want a piece of it, you got to take it from us!!! If that gets you riled up, then come get some!!! I don't see a weak roster in the division--hell OAKLAND SHOULD OWN THIS SEASON [on paper]--so man up and let's go

I just put "The Stampede" on the plane to Vancouver---you're got some head-bussa's inbound Killer Whales, better be ready

[SteveBsFan]

1. Predict your team's record - 7-9
2. Predict the winner of your division - Murf
3. Predict the winner of your conference - WVA
4. Predict the Imperial Bowl winner - WVA
5. Predict a breakout player on your team - hard to pick a breakout candidate really. A lot of 1-3 year players, and most older ones play the way I expect of them. I'll go either Duncan having a monster season, or Rosow improving his INT numbers.
6. Predict your team MVP - Phil Miller

7. I will have a strong candidate for both offensive rookie of year (Surratt), and defensive rookie of year (Hicks DE, Hank MLB).

8. The AC South will be closer than last year, as Murf will not win 15 games. They'll still win the division with relative ease (3 games tops)

9. StL and LRK will have a huge battle for the #1 overall pick.

10. Georgia will be the most improved team

11. Schwartz will still finish with a rating under 100, due to lack of receivers.

12. Oakland will win the NC West by 2 games over SLC, who will finish 10-6.

13. Particelli will have a better than expected season, possibly even hit 1k yards.

14. In the NFL, Minnesota will not be in the superbowl, and quite possibly won't be in the playoffs once Favre melts down again.

[Kozure]

8. Beasts get a hell of a deal for Lenny Snograss by the trading deadline. 1st, 2nd, and 4th gets it done.

I'd take that deal in a heartbeat right now. But could just keep him anyway and have one of the deeper secondaries in the game. He has the looks of a good corner.

[Jave]

1. Predict your team's record:
9-7-Improving to a winning season, but still a year off.

2. Predict the winner of your division:
SLC-Vito puts things together to win 11 games and the division....BUT still gets ousted in the first round.

3. Predict the winner of your conference:
Lawrence-STILL to much fire power, Jester wins 12 games and the conference.

4. Predict the Imperial Bowl winner:
Murfreesboro- Puts all the pieces together for a 14-2 run the an IFL championship!

5. Predict a breakout player on your team:
Rickey Doyle- Reaches his potential and has a 10 sack, 50 tackle season.

6. Predict your team MVP-
Geoff Wilson- A no brainer, Wilson rushes for 1700 yards 10 touchdowns for team MVP
7, 8, etc - Predict whatever you want:

[JesterBlaze]

9. IFL improves again in 2015. I see we're attracting talent from other leagues and slowly the IFL's turning into an All-Pro league where winning a Bowl is gonna require a lot of luck as well as the obvious talent required to get a post-season ticket. Not to say it doesn't require luck already.

10. OROY - Brad Harris, WR - Georgia Generals.

11. DROY - Derrick McKinley, DE - Hartford Grizzlies.

[tarcone]
