It's time for these NFL teams to turn over a new leaf.
NFL Quarterly Report
Sometimes things don't work out the way you think they will, other times your expectations are met. As an initial playoff pick, the Saints have let me down. As my #1 sleeper, the Jags have kept my hopes alive. But even as one team is one it's way down, and the other is on it's way up, both are on the verge of a new era. And I'm glad that I'll be able to come along for the ride.

I could have been stubborn and stuck with the Pats/Vikings pick. But I just wanted to show how much I respect this Panthers team. It's the only team in the league that I would be ok losing to. That being said, I'm picking the Pats to win the Super Rematch.
