Prisco.....Predicting every NFL game: Here's how the season plays out

Predicting every NFL game: Here's how the season plays outPete PriscoSenior NFL Columnist    CBS SportsAugust 27, 2014 10:07 pm ETA tie?    For real? (USATSI)This is the third consecutive year I've played out the season picking every single game -- with scores.It is a laborious job, but it's one I truly enjoy doing to get a better gauge on how I think the NFL season will play out.This year, I did something different. In picking every game, every week, I used the scores from the corresponding week a year ago.Why?I think it's easy to pick scores like 24-20, 27-21 and others we expect to see. But the reality is not many will pick scores like 42-21, 41-7 and even 51-28, all scores we saw last year. That's why I decided to do it this way, in an effort to bring more reality to it.So dive in, check out your team's games and then take a look at their projected records before you kill me.Or print and save and then do the killing in January.The reality is the unpredictable NFL will make this entire process look silly come the end of the season.WEEK 1Sunday, Sept. 7Carolina Panthers at Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Bucs 49, Panthers 27WEEK 2Sunday, Sept. 14St. Louis Rams at Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Bucs 14, Rams 6WEEK 3Thursday, Sept. 18 Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Atlanta Falcons – Falcons 30, Bucs 9WEEK 4Bye teams: Arizona Cardinals, Cincinnati Bengals, Cleveland Browns, Denver Broncos, Seattle Seahawks, St. Louis RamsSunday, Sept. 28Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Pittsburgh Steelers – Steelers 17, Bucs 6WEEK 5Bye teams: Miami Dolphins, Oakland RaidersSunday, Oct. 5 Tampa Bay Buccaneers at New Orleans Saints – Saints 27, Bucs 17WEEK 6Bye teams: Kansas City Chiefs, New Orleans SaintsSunday, Oct. 12Baltimore Ravens at Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Bucs 20, Ravens 13WEEK 7Bye teams: Philadelphia Eagles, Tampa Bay BuccaneersWEEK 8Bye teams: New York Giants, San Francisco 49ersSunday, Oct. 26Minnesota Vikings at Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Bucs 31, Vikings 13WEEK 9Bye teams: Atlanta Falcons, Buffalo Bills, Chicago Bears, Detroit Lions, Green Bay Packers, Tennessee TitansSunday, Nov. 2 Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Cleveland Browns – Bucs 27, Browns 24WEEK 10Bye teams: Houston Texans, Indianapolis Colts, Minnesota Vikings, New England Patriots, San Diego Chargers, Washington RedskinsSunday, Nov. 9Atlanta Falcons at Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Falcons 27, Bucs 24WEEK 11Bye teams: Baltimore Ravens, Dallas Cowboys, Jacksonville Jaguars, New York JetsSunday, Nov. 16Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Washington Redskins – Redskins 37, Bucs 27WEEK 12Bye teams: Carolina Panthers, Pittsburgh SteelersSunday, Nov. 23 Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Chicago Bears – Bears 26, Bucs 26WEEK 13Sunday, Nov. 30Cincinnati Bengals at Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Bengals 22, Bucs 14WEEK 14Sunday, Dec. 7Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Detroit Lions –Lions 45, Bucs 10WEEK 15Sunday, Dec. 14Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Carolina Panthers – Panthers 24, Bucs 20WEEK 16Sunday, Dec. 21Green Bay Packers at Tampa Bay Buccaneers –Packers 34, Bucs 24WEEK 17Sunday, Dec. 28New Orleans Saints at Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Bucs 27, Saints 24Predicted division standings, team recordsTo view every team...link
