Ten bold predictions for 2023 NFL season Cowboys in NFC title game Pat

The 2023 season isn't that far away, though we're just three months removed from the beating the in LVII. Andy Reid and still reign supreme over the with their second title in four years, even if the AFC is the deepest Tobias Bjornfot Jersey  it's been in decades.Meanwhile, in the NFC, the Eagles appear to be even better than last season -- as the conference doesn't look to be as strong as in years past. Is the league preparing for another Chiefs-Eagles , or will a few teams rise up and take Kansas City and/or Philadelphia off the top of the conference pyramid?While it may be only May (the schedule has not even been released yet), here are some bold predictions for the 2023 season. These predictions are reasonably bold (no hot takes) and no conference champions and winners are prediction.This is what could happen in 2023 based on the situations of the team and player.  Detroit is well positioned to win the NFC North for the first time in its history (it hasn't won a division title since it was called the NFC Central in 1993). With the uncertainly surrounding the in the post-Aaron Rodgers era, the being helter-skelter year-to-year, and the rebuilding -- the Lions have an excellent opportunity to claim the division and reach the playoffs for the first time since 2016.The Lions will host a playoff game if they win the NFC North, and have a talented roster on both sides of the ball to make some noise in the postseason. Thanks to a weaker NFC, Detroit seems poised to take another step under Dan Campbell in 2023.Expectations may be high, but the Lions have the talent to score with anybody. They finally have a secondary that may be able to stop opponents too.  Jackson finally has his contract situation with the resolved, and can get to work in a new offensive system with the best group of pa s catchers he's ever had. Jackson's top three wide receivers are Odell Beckham, , and rookie -- who should compliment each other well in the offense. The Ravens also have one of the game's best tight ends in .Todd Monken's offense will focus on the pa sing game more, not just manipulating Jackson's strength as a runner. Jackson has led the league in touchdown pa ses and pa ser rating once, so he does know how to throw the ball.If Jackson can stay healthy, he'll throw for 4,000 yards in this revamped offense this season (his previous career-high is 3,127 in 2019) -- a great season, even if.  The last team to repeat as NFC East champions were the Philadelphia Eagles from 2001 through 2004. The division hasn't had a repeat winner since then.The Eagles went 14-3 last season, winning a division that saw three teams go to the divisional round of the playoffs. Could Philadelphia actually repeat with the division the best it's been in 15 Tiger Williams Jersey  years?With as quarterback and a talented roster that looks even better (on paper) this offseason, the Eagles appear primed to make another deep playoff run again. Tougher schedule or not, Philadelphia appears to be the best team in the NFC once again.  Thanks to Hurts, a dominant running game, and a lethal pa s rush, the Eagles appear primed to repeat in the NFC East despite the Dallas Cowboys and improving.How could a rookie running back have this much impact in Year 1? For starters, the had one of the best run offenses in the league last season, finishing third in thein rush yards per game (159.9) and second in rush-play percentage (55.3%). This was with and carrying the offense.Add Robinson to the mix and watch those numbers explode. The Falcons run blocking is excellent and will create enough holes for Robinson to get a lot of big runs and force plenty of mi sed tackles. Don't be surprised if Robinson makes an Adrian Peterson-type impact for this team in his rookie season.  The hasn't had a player lead the NFL in receiving yards in consecutive seasons since in 2011 and 2012. Thanks to how Kevin O'Connell runs an offense, Jefferson is primed to have another monster season catching the football.Jefferson had 17 more targets in 2022 than he did in 2021, which led to 193 more receiving yards than the previous year. With Jefferson being one of the NFL's best route runners, O'Connell is going to maximize the opportunities to get him the football and make plays (he did this with in the when he was the offensive coordinator, a Sean McVay staple).The Vikings offense is perfectly suited for Jefferson to get a lot of targets, as he's just scratching the surface of how good he can be in this league (first player to have 4,500 receiving yards after three seasons).  Wilson had an incredible rookie season, given the state of his quarterback situation. was the worst starting quarterback in the league last season, while and weren't much better. Wilson still managed to put up 1,103 receiving yards despite his quarterbacks' Derek Forbort Jersey  inefficiency.That shouldn't be an i sue with , as Wilson is the best pa s catcher in a loaded offense that has back in the fold. Wilson will be the No. 1 wideout in an offense with , , , and .Rodgers will distribute the ball, but he has a tendency of targeting his best playmaker frequently. Wilson is set up for a monster second season, as he could join Jerry Rice as the only players to have 1,500 receiving yards and 15 receiving touchdowns in a season within their first two seasons in the league.  Stop if you heard this before. The Cowboys have not reached the conference championship game since the 1995 season. There are plenty of reasons to believe Dallas won't make it that far in the playoffs, mainly because Mike McCarthy is back to calling plays and the are their kryptonite. also became a turnover machine overnight.Despite the adversity surrounding the Cowboys, Dallas certainly improved its roster from the last year. The addition of is ma sive for the pa sing game, while the subtraction of contract is huge for roster construction. is also a big addition for an already strong defense under Dan Quinn. Prescott also can't be as turnover prone as he was last season.Like it or not, the Cowboys are better. They are one of the top three teams in a weak NFC. This is arguably the best chance for the Cowboys to make a deep playoff run, coming off consecutive 12-win seasons.  Feels like the Patriots are due to hit a ma sive wall in 2023. The AFC East is arguably the best it's ever been in the Bill Belichick era, with Aaron Rodgers heading to the . Not only are the Jets playoff contenders, but the are annual contenders and the have a talented roster that made the playoffs last season -- and have back.While does New England fit into Jake Muzzin Women Jersey  all this? is a question mark, even if he has an actual offensive coordinator in Bill O'Brien. New England didn't do enough to surround Jones with talent in a league where the Patriots need to score points in order to win games.The AFC is loaded with good teams and Patriots reside in the AFC East, having to play those teams twice a year. They also play the NFC East and AFC West in 2023. The stage appears set for a down season in New England.  Belichick went 5-11 in his first season leading the Patriots in 2000 (.313 win percentage). If the Patriots can't score points and help out a good defense, a rare five-win season may be coming in New England.Bosa has seen the double team frequently in San Francisco, becoming the marked pa s rusher in a 49ers defense that relies on him to get to the quarterback. With the  Ilya Kovalchuk Jersey addition of , the 49ers have an interior presence in the pa s rush not seen since .Hargrave will free up the edge for Bosa, who is coming off winning Defensive Player of the Year honors and leading the league with 18.5 sacks. Bosa appears primed to hit the 20-sack mark this season , since he's not the only player opposing offenses have to account for that gets to the quarterback.Even with gone, Bosa should feast.Drew Brees is the only quarterback to throw for 5,000 yards in consecutive seasons, accomplishing the feat from 2011 to 2013. Mahomes will join him this year, as Andy Reid will set up the Chiefs quarterback to have another ma sive season throwing the ball.The development of and rookie will be key, but Mahomes still has in his prime and another year of in the system. Kansas City has different players on offense, but is still deep at the skill positions with Mahomes mastering reading opposing defenses.Mahomes is so quick at getting rid of the ball. If he gets the proper protection and can stay upright, he'll be able to throw for 5,000 yards again. The Chiefs offense shouldn't mi s a beat.
