I did pretty badly with this last year, predicting that the Giants and Eagles would go into the post-season as winners and wildcard respectively. In the end, the Cowboys surprised and the Giants disappointed to swap places from my predictions. Unfortunately the ‘Skins did no better than I thought they would and were propping up the division.

Let’s see what’s happening for 2010…

Indianapolis Colts
Wide receiver Anthony Gonzalez may miss 2-6 weeks after picking up an injury against the Jaguars last weekend.

Yesterday we reported that the Eagles had released Hank Baskett, well the Colts have now snapped him up as cover for Gonzalez.

Philadelphia Eagles
Injured quarter back Donovan McNabb has still not been ruled out of playing against the Saints on Sunday.

While McNabb has played with injuries before a broken rib might have quite a detrimental effect on his game!

San Diego Chargers
LaDainian Tomlinson, Nick Hardwick and Louis Vasquez all missed practice on Thursday after picking up injuries against Oakland.  This might leave them a little light when they face Baltimore in week 2.

Detroit Lions
Sad news that former coach Monte Clark has passed away.  Clark led them to the play-offs twice.  He was 72.

A great night of football last night! It was a shame about the Gampass problems (for those that use it), lets hope they get it right for next week and give everybody some kind of compensation.

Philadelphia Eagles
Donovan McNabb suffered a broken rib during the game against Carolina. It is not yet known how long he will be out for, but Michael Vick must be getting on edge now.

So it all kicks off in a matter of hours! Week 1 is here, so this is our last chance to get our picks for the season published.

These are based on what we’ve been watching, what we’ve been following, some blind faith and our guts. These are are our predictions for the 12 post-season teams of the 2009 season.

This isn’t a complete look at everything that happened this week. Just some tit-bits to keep us going as week two has now wrapped up.

Two very interesting – and in at least one case largely unexpected – signings have taken place this week with Michael Vick being signed up to by the Eagles and then with Brett Favre heading to the Vikings.

It’s pretty quiet from all quarters, so not a huge amount of news since my First Look. But let’s see if there’s anything happening that’s worth re-evaluating our position at all.

So Hank Baskett (which is a great name, by the way) and Kendra Wilkinson are due to get married in just two weeks’ time. I think we can all agree this is a happy time for the pair.

The lovely Kendra Wilkinson

Kendra likes to drive them balls...

It’s unlikely that losing either one will make a huge difference to my predictions but personally I’d like to see the Eagles with as few weapons as possible. It has been pointed out that Hank would be a cheaper option than Reggie… if that becomes a factor.

But, I hear you say, surely this article is a thinly-veiled premise to post Kendra pics… well, maybe.

So the first thing to say is that it’s way to early to make any sort of accurate predictions. Way, way, way too early. Most of the players are at home, or working out in small groups. The rookies are starting minicamps and there are plenty of factors that will come into play before the pre-season, let alone the regular season.

However, there are odds posted and it’s worth getting our thoughts together at this stage, so let’s check them out!
