Upcoming NFL season

The NFL season is right around the corner and so will our contest to determine who is the most accurate in picking NFL games. I dominated the competition last year and plan on doing the same again this year. Returning will be my friends and diehard cowboy fans John and Brad along with hopefully my brother's friend Dan. If Dan opts out because he sees my record last year and knows it is impossible to beat me I will certainly understand. As for Brad and John they will enter with the delusion they can beat me which is only matched by their delusions of their beloved Dallas Cowboys making it to the superbowl. In fairness to both Brad and John they will be working at a disadvantage since after last year's disasterous cowboy season ,both were institutionalized and shortly thereafter doctor's had to resort to electroshock therapy to erase the memories of last year's cowboy debacle.
This year as a bonus I will go ahead and give my pick of the two teams that will be in the superbowl. I figure if Sports Illustrated's Peter King can do it and get paid then I should too. Last year Peter King picked the Houston Texans to be in the superbowl and this year his pick is almost as absurd. King has the Atlanta Falcons vs the San Diego Chargers with the Falcons winning.
My pick is the Green Bay Packers vs the New England Patrtiots. New England will be fueled by last year's loss to the Jets in the playoffs and still has Tom Brady in top form. Green Bay will be returning all their best players from last year and will get back tight end Jermichael Finley and running back Ryan Grant. It's hard to have a superbowl champion repeat but this will be the year it will happen and Green Bay will win their 5th superbowl in franchise history. The Pack will be back and better than ever!
