Season 21 of the NBFL Kicks Off - Division Predictions
Hey Hey, North America's take on the NFL is kicking off their 21st season tonight or tomorrow. For those unfamiliar with the NBFL we try to ape the NFL to a degree, having 32 franchises, a draft of players from the NCBB (our college league), and a playoff format identical to the NFL.

So with that said let's take a look at the teams and divisions and I'll try to Nostradamus my way through all of them. I am not really considering draft picks here since no one team hinges on their draft picks and generally those who get the best are in the worst spots with few exceptions.

AFC South:

1. Warpston Oilers (AFC South Winner, Skaven)
2a. Jakesonville Jortles (NFC South Winner, High Elves)
2b. Indianapolis Crypts (Undead)
4. Tennessee "Yet to be nameds" (Chaos)

Bazakastine leads the Skaven Oilers once again and it's hard to not put him as the favorite in the division. He's consistently made the playoffs every season, gone to a few Superbowls and just knows what makes the team tick. It would be a huge surprise if he didn't win the division even with the Jortles and Crypts in there. Just too much skill and momentum that favors them.

I lead the Jakesonville Jortles in their first season in the AFC South. Having accomplished the goal of winning a division last season in the NFC South I got an offer I couldn't refuse to take over Jacksonville and put a most excellent "Good Place" spin on the team. I forsee a good season, not great because of the division itself with Bazakastine's rats and MrNomads Undead in Indy but I thrive in my non division games anyway. MrNomad and I are really equal coaches with every game being a toss up at the outset and I look forward to doing battle with him. Wildcard is where I place my hopes!

MrNomad is back after a season off to get learned. Back where he belongs with Undead in Indy it's like he never left in the first place. Like I said above he and I are pretty much equal and it's probably a safe bet that he or I come up second in the division. I'll be especially keen to see how his out of division games go as he might have my number at the moment but there's a lot of fresh faces and teams in the NBFL who might throw him for a loop. It really does fill me with glee that he and I are in the same division, playing our preferred team types at least twice a season.

Blackdice moves his buff as hell goats from Kansas City to Tennessee. He still hasn't decided on a team name but that's of little importance. I think he's probably punching up the most out of any division in the NBFL but he could be a complete spoiler for any of the teams in the division if he drags enough players down to the chaotic hell he makes his home. I wouldn't bank on a hugely successful season but I would keep an eye out on how he wrecks some of the other teams in the league and how that affects future games for his opponents. He keeps getting these #1 draft picks and we all could be facing a ST5 or ST6 wall of hell down the road.

AFC North:

1. Baltimore Mavens (AFC Wildcard, Made AFC Championship, Dark Elves)
2. Blitzburgh Yellowjackets (Wood Elves)
3. Vigilante Shingles (Chaos Dwarves)
4. Khleveland Khrowns (Khemri)

Thoralf commands the Baltimore Mavens once again and they had a spectacular run last season. Although they couldn't wrestle away the division from Sutherlands in Cincy (who has been replaced by Rodney_Dangerfield with the Vigilante Shingles) they made a lot of their playoff run and found themselves in the AFC Championship game against the New York Wrecks. I think they merely pick up where they left off doing Dark Elf things and winning games in crunch time.

Blitzburgh Yellowjackets are helmed by Amon242 and despite some crazy preseason attrition they're pretty stacked. The biggest thing that gives me pause here is that the squad will need to stay healthy and not get stung with perms and deaths throughout the season. Chaos Dwarves are quite known for doing damage and welp, he has to face them at least twice a season. But Wood Elves are Wood Elves and Amon242 probably has some ideas of room for improvement in his 2nd season with them.

They don't get no respect - Vigilante Shingles are a new participant to the league after Sutherland's departure and led by rodney_dangerfield. Now I haven't watched him play and I know Chaos Dwarves can do some pretty nasty and impressive things but a first season to get acclimated has me thinking they take third in the division. After a breaking in period perhaps they'll probably give anyone a run for their money heads up.

Jeffro, former NBFL commish who made the absurd choice to hand the reigns to me, takes the Khemri based Khrowns into their 2nd season. I am not generally optimistic on Khemri in the NBFL but Jeffro has moxie and I won't forget how he absolutely flummoxed me at times when we were both in the NFC South. But yah, I am weighing down their chances simply because Khemri are Khemri and they don't have a real edge in the format. But who knows, maybe they impress and he gets a job offer for the real Browns. Lord knows they need it and could do far worse.

AFC West:

1. Denvork Bronorks (AFC West Winner, Orcs)
2. San Dogo (Humans)
3. Oakland Elf Raiders (Dark Elves)
4. Kansas City Thiefs (Pact)

The Bronkorks - basically a fixture of the NBFL playoffs for seasons and seasons now, you can't take them down a peg until someone breaks the peg they're on. Returning all their beef from last season I think they're the obvious favorite here. The only thing that could throw them off is if JackassRampant misses games due to getting sucked into Iron Maiden or Black Sabbath documentaries.

2. Kryten, probably one of the most dangerous coaches who can almost always find a crease of luck is back at it with the humans and Fan Favorite and League Darling Chris Growlkowski. Although last season didn't really pan out I think K is so familiar with the team, the opponents, and knowing when to strike and when to play it safe. Win or lose though he will punish the league by dangling his latest beer projects in front of us while being for his taste buds only.

3. I don't get the Oakland Elf Raiders. Ex-convict has coached them for seasons and I always wonder if their perennial 3rd place finish is due to the division itself, the coach, the team being not being a best fit for the division, and myriad other reasons. Perhaps when they shove off to Las Vegas ex-con will make a transition to a new team type that opens things a bit for in the division race. I think a wildcard could happen but that would require either Bronkorks or San Dogo really crapping up their season. But hoepfully they give us one last glorious season before the move to Vegas.

4. Kansas City Thiefs are a fresh team by an old and wily coach (Arktoris) who has never met a risk that dissuaded him. Pact is notoriously hard at first in the NBFL but they can wind up being a swiss army knife for all comers with tentacoli big guys, claw and MB Marauders, and even a few nifty +AG, +MA non Marauder players. I would put a rosier outlook on them a season or two down the road. I really do hope we see some of that Hellbound Charioteer coaching through the season as Arktoris led the infamous norse to the GLT semi-final.

AFC East:

1. New York Wrecks (AFC East Winner, Super Bowl Runner Up, Chaos)
2. Miasma Dolphlegms (Nurgle)
3. Buffalo Psycho Billies (Necromantic)
4. Dead England Patriots (Undead)

If you like bashiness welp, look no further than the AFC East. But among this division the clear front runner is the guy with the most badass goat you've ever seen - Broadway Joe. He was full of heroics on top of his solid play last season and looks to be an unstoppable force this season. The New York Wrecks led by Robocoyote are probably in the running to make the AFC Championship again this season and there's no reason to really doubt it. Well unless Broadway Joe takes a dirt nap at the hands of...

Miasma Dolphlegms. DrPoods has been in the league for a while now and finally settled on the nasty Nurgles. Nurgle teams have popped their heads up quite a few times over the seasons and I think sticking with them is a huge benefit over time. Yes, Nurgle teams have been wrecked a few times but I think DrPoods might even be in the wildcard hunt down the stretch. He's been playing really well in Ranked and of course in saying that I've jinxed him. To be honest, he'd probably prefer I rate him last so that when he exceeds that easily he can rub it in my face for being wrong again. Or blame me personally. Love you Poods! ;)

Namloc takes the Psycho Bilies in for a second season and there's a lot to like about the team. The draft wasn't great but they did shore up the overall guard on their team which could be a boon in the division. Necromantic have been the domain of the NFC West so its nice to see them pop up here in the AFC East but it'll be tough facing off such a strong favorite in New York and having two regen teams in the mix. Instead of relying on CAS to carry the day they could be locked into making big plays with the werewolves and taking a more adaptable approach. Perhaps if they were in another division they'd be in the running for 2nd place.

Gobbo No More, the Dead England Patriots are in it to win it. But just like the Necro above it could prove difficult in the division and this being their first season...let me just cut to it. I think the first season for a new team is always the hardest. Even when firing on all cylinders Undead will struggle at times depending on opponent as MrNomad shows in Indy. I expect a rocky first season but Valen will likely give a few teams a run for their money and build up a solid cadre of deadites for next season.


NFC will be done later today as I'm off to lunch!

Very nice. I think, Rodney Dangerfield will get 2nd in his division. And i think Dead England Patriots can get 3rd.

NFC! Now I am pretty keen on the NFC as a whole as being really intriguing I'll save what I think are the most intriguing division races for last...

NFC North:

1. Greenball Attackers (NFC North Winner, NFC Championship Participant, )
2. Detroit Destitutes (AFC Wildcard)
3. Chicagovania Provocateurs (Vampire)
4. Ministers of Sewer Skulking (Skaven)

Green Ball Attackers...what more can be said? It's Grue. With Frogs. In a format he's almost always been in the Conference Championship in. The dude seems like the luckiest SOB on the planet when you play him but the trick is he basically putting you in spots where you have no margin for error. Green Ball is as big as they've ever been in TV going into the season and I don't have high hopes for the rest of the NFC to catch him in his path to glory unless...

Asteflix commanding the Detroit Destitutes has anything to say about it. He took home the wildcard slot last season when he was leading the same Chaos Dwarves in Jacksonville (with their erotic animal theme *shudders*) and if there was ever a more bash enthralled coach on Fumbbl, Aste probably killed them. He actually sought out the move to the NFC North to challenge himself and take Grue down a peg. I would expect to see Aste pop up in the wildcard slot again if things go really well. Team is solid as hell but we'll see how he fares in conquering his self made challenge.

Relezite...Relezite...Relezite. Last year was an unmitigated disaster with one of his Vampires, an AG6 stud suffering a fatality. It was a no good rotten season for the Vampires and it could play out that way again but I think he's learned a few lessons and is better prepared. Also, he won a Fumbbl Cup for Nuffle's sake. Great coach with a hard team in a hard division - it'll be interesting.

Finally we get to Kzarik's Ministers of the Sewer Sulking which were in Los Angeles last season (Stimme and him swapped spots). I would probably put them up higher if this wasn't such a solid division because rats can rat the hell out of anyone any given game and he has some idea of what to expect this season. If Relezite's season goes cold again he could place third which would be great for the youthful cheese nippers.

NFC West

1. Los Angeles Glams (Superbowl Winners, High Elves)
2. C'Attle C'haos (NFC West Winner, Chaos)
3. San Foulcisco 69'ers (Necromantic)
4. Arizona Cards (Khemri)

Los Angeles Glams won it all last season as the Minnesota High Kings. A modern day version of the Beverly Hills 90210 they picked up digs and went to the land of palm trees, bikini clad ladies on roller skates and bitching IROC Zs. The team is intact from that Superbowl run, and Stimme undoubtedly has a ton of confidence and swagger having beaten his arch rival Green Ball and taking home the trophy. Strong favorites to repeat and I could just gush and gush about these superior High Elves. But I won't. I'll leave you with a name. Monson.

C'attle C'hoas made a trip up north formerly being Arizona Kill'em all. Unfortunately Ritzi wasn't going to be able to participate this season which is MenonaLoco's gain (GO HAWKS!). He knows exactly what he needs to do to pull out the division this season which is just decimate everyone else. They are vulnerable to High Elves as I proved last season in tieing him (Yes, a tie is a win in my book here, don't ask) which I think dampens his chances of walking away with the division. He faces Jakesonville once and The Glams twice so keep an eye on how those play. Regardless of winning the division or not I think it'll be down to him and another team to lock up that 5th or 6th wildcard spot.

San Foulcisco 69'ers had a rough preseason but feel dauntless. Teresa, a werewolf, could make the argument for being the highest potential player in the game having ST4, MA10, and AG4 along with Surefeet and Sprint allowing any bad thing that happens to the team to be righted with a score on the spot. Shame the division is so tough but being only one of two regen teams in the division they could press for an aggressive and bashy first half of the season and then fall into a more finesse mode in the back half. Outside shot of taking home 2nd in the division but just watching Teresa play is worth the season alone.

Finally we have a newcomer, CaptainMalkor raising some ancient egyptians in the desert. Again, I discount Khemri in the NBFL, especially a first season Khemri and I haven't really observed CaptainMalkor play so it is more of a question mark to me but given the knowns of the division I think this is where they wind up at when all is said and done. Develop some players, punish opponents and have more of an edge come next season.

NFC East:

1. New York Deviants (NFC East Winner, Dark Elves)
2. Weaklington Frailskins (NFC Wildcard, Pro Elves)
3. PhilaWAAAGHphia Iggles (Orcs)
4. Foullas Foulboys (Nurgle)

The New York Deviants, coached by our bar tending friend Doofr, wrapped up the division last season and were looking like they might be the cream of the crop. Alas the eventual Superbowl winners sealed their fate and they went home swiftly. But that really doesn't figure into their chances to take home the division. I would argue that in a way this is the most even division where the coach and team separation is the slimmest and yet I still find myself leaning Doofr to repeat his division crown. He matches well against everyone in the division and has the right touch in the regular season. Hopefully it's not another one and done for them this year but if it is...

Then you can root for the scrappiest of underdogs, the Weaklington Frailskins. Garcangel bested me in the wildcard round last season and didn't stop there. He made it all the way to the Conference Championship which for a sixth seed is pretty darn great. Just like the Glams he has an absolute beast of a player in Wilma Wildpuss and another near legend in Justin Conzemius [MIN]. Being Pro Elves (Or Elven Union), the team can ride around with a few studs and then a bunch of one skilled linemen while getting inducements like Eldril to even the odds. Look forward to tracking their season and they may even wind up winning the division.

Arcayn's green killers, the PhilaWAAAGHphia Iggles were the team that could have taken home that sixth seed if not for a final week loss. They were really neck and neck there with the Frailskins and I can't really deny that they could easily wind up winning the division or taking a wildcard. Just a few better dices here, a few more CAS there and it's not a reach to think they too could be in the hunt for the wildcard or division in the dwindling weeks of the season. Sometimes you're just thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis close.

Foullas Foulboys are fresh but the coach is an old mainstay of the league, antithesisoftime. Once again, first season jitters and a season to develop players will probably make next season a run more smoothly but there is something intriguing about Nurgle teaming up with the Orcs to run show here. Give it time and I think this might become the best horse race in the league. But until that time pencil Foullas down as having a respectable season and looking ferocious by the end of it.

NFC South.

1a. Atlanta Falchions
1b. Nawlins Lost Saints
1c. Bucking Buccaneers
1d. Carolina Reapers

Jmonforton, leading the Falchions was near the wildcard race but far from the division last season. That's changed with me leaving for the AFC South. I love lizards in the NBFL and think they can really excel in the format where the draft gives you so many opportunities to rock out of the gate. He came in 2nd last season and he's definitely my favorite to win it this go around but...

You know the name, you've heard the legends, it's Bill Effing Brasky playing Pact. Their third season in now, they're looking to turn a corner and be that swiss army knife I alluded to above. I like the matchups against Lizardmen and Chaos Dwarves and Undead and Brasky only needs a steady supply of whisky to keep them fired up and bashing fools. We'll see if the Pact rise up and seize the ring that's right there for the taking.

The Bucking Buccaneers cleared out of Indy by way of Jacksonville and wound up down the road in Tampa. Wolvezzz has been all in with Chaos Dwarves in the NCBB and stunned me in the final game of the season and that weighs on me. Easily could put together the best season of the bunch but I'm just a bit less familiar with him and the this iteration of Chaos Dwarves to think higher of his chances. Brasky I know and love, so I favor him ever so gently, but Wolvezzz could win my heart.

Carolina Reapers are helmed by Klazam who is playing his inaugural season. There will be a lot to learn but the division pairings aren't unkind elven BS and he has the boots to take everyone else and their fancy pants AV9 armor on the beef underground to their level. I would be kinda surprised if he won but there is the hilarious possibility his second half of the season comes to him easier simply by surviving better in the first half than his division rivals. At the very least he'll get a chance to develop the team some and hopefully bury a few players on the opposition to keep his bench full of dirty fouling zombies.

I'll do my best to convince Eldril to help me steal a wild card again.
