Niko’s 2010 NFL Predictions; Bucs 8-8 to 10-6

Allow me to be the first one to say the most lunatic prediction regarding the Bucs heard this year. And no, I am not saying just for attention. I truely believe in my prediction………………………..and can back it up with an explanation. I believe the Bucs will come out of the tunnel very hot so to speak. Tampa Bay will fly to 3-0 to start the season off, maybe even 4-0. But youth is youth, and that said youth will probably cause a mid-season swing of games to go either way, more than likely go against Tampa Bay than for. Then, in the end, the Bucs have good coaching and good young players, who will regroup and provide an excellent glimpse into the future of this team and 2011. The main variable I feel is that midseason. Are these young players mature enough in their own way to handle adversity when it is thrown to them? Because if they can, and if they can manage to go .500 during the midseason where I predict they will collapse, this could be yet another worst to first NFC South season, and could propel this team into playoff contention later on in the year. I’ll gladly share my recipe for Crow, however I am putting myself on record right now!
