2012 NFL Predictions: November

It's Halloween today and that means costumes, candy, and all that comes with it. It also means that November is tomorrow and thus is time for my to reveal my newly updated predictions. It's been an interesting season so far. There are a handful of teams that have elevated themselves above the rest and then there is an abnormal amount of teams that are in the mid-range level with three to four wins. That's 17 teams that have either three or four wins. That means very few teams are out of it and we will have a fun time seeing how it all plays out. Much of what I have re-predicted this time is the same as last month, but there are a few new surprises. My Super Bowl predictions do go against my usual logic, which actually bothers me, but nothing else feels right at the moment, so I went with it. Also, I will not be doing a post where I give my thoughts on each division and the teams in it like I did last month. I have replaced that with my Power Rankings, so check that out as well.
