Who are the true contenders?

Who will come out of each division, and who will be there in the end?

 

NFC:

Tampa in the NFC South
Rams in the West
Green Bay North
The East is nutty. I'll say Philly.

Wildcard (how many? Just one right?) - Niners, bears

AFC

Pats
Steelers
Colts
Raiders

Wildcard - Browns, fins

 

2 wildcards

Bucs
Rams
Pack
Eagles

Wildcard - Niners and Skins

I got the Pack to take it to the SB. The Saints could suprise, they have some weapons on offense, and I like Brooks. But they've lost a lot in terms of their defensive identity. Skins get in on a weak schedule.

AFC

Phins
Browns
Colts
Chargers

Wildcard - Buffalo and Titans


The rebound division. 4 of 6 teams make the playoffs that did not a year before. Colts edge Phins in the Championship game.

 

No steelers - no pats?

 

Both teams will face tougher tests this year. Particuarly the Pats. The Steelers may get screwed. A team could go 10-6 and not go to the playoffs, and a division winner, like San Diego, could go 9-7 and win the division. Still, I like what the Browns have done. Shored up their line, and got a real back in William Green. And I’ve heard Bettis isn’t a strong as he was this time last season.

 

NFC East - Eagles
NFC South - Tampa
NFC North - Da Bears
NFC West - Rams

AFC East - Dolphins
AFC South - Titans
AFC West - Raiders
AFC North - Colts

Wildcards NFC Packers and Niners
Wildcards AFC Steelers and Dolphins

 

Gonna be hard for the Hawks to win the AFC West this year Paul. Damn near impossible, with them realigned and all.

 

I was surprised by that pick, too.

But hey - they've got Dilfer.

 

Trent is the man. IF fat ass, er Holmgren, had put him in to begin with, they would've made the playoffs last year.

 

True dat!!!!
