Tennessee Titans - Baltimore shocked them last year. 2. Denver Broncos - Good team that added a lot of players. 3. Baltimore Ravens - Great Defense, better O this year,less depth, O line problem for the first half of the season 4. Oakland Raiders - Not sure why I put them this high. 5. New York Giants - O and D lines solid, that wins games 6. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Brad won't take them to the top. Still a good defense, this is the last year before they fall to pieces. 7. Indianapolis Colts - every one raves about them, suspect D. 8. New York Jets - will run teams into the ground. Go LaMount! 9. Miami Dolphins - QB determines how far they go this year 10. St. Louis Rams - All new defense will suck for the first half of the season. If they learn to play together they may finish strong. 11. New Orleans Saints - Surprised us last year, can they do it again? 12. Philadelphia Eagles - On the rise. Receivers need to erase question marks in order to finish better. 13. Pittsburgh Steelers - Tough defense. Offense needs to surprise to finish here. 14. Atlanta Falcons - A lot a Atlanta fans on the thread so I'm being kind. 15. Green Bay Packers - Middle of the pack at best. 16. Seattle Seahawks - I don't follow these guys enough to know so I put them in the low middle area. 17. Kansas City Chiefs - Trent Green finally gets to earn his money. 18. San Diego Chargers - An improved team. 19. Buffalo Bills - Flutie went to a better team. 20. Detroit Lions - I like Matt but he not playing he's the GM. 21. Minnesota Vikings - Giants showed the league just how good these guys are. What's going to happen with the new weaker defense and weaker offensive line? Rebuilding year. Hope they have some money left. 22. Washington Redskins - Could be mediocre early, then tail off to piss poor. Lack of depth kills this season. 23. Cleveland Browns - Could do better but a new coach means a new offense and a new defense. 24. Jacksonville Jaguars - Better than some of the teams above but they play in a blistering conference. 25. San Francisco 49ers - Could end up better than this. 26. Arizona Cardinals - Huge O line. Needs a defense. 27. Cincinnati Bengals - The Cincinnati Bengels, nuff said. 28. New England Patriots - Needs runners, receivers etc., in general needs players. 29. Chicago Bears - Everyone thinks they will be bad so I'll go with the flow. 30. Dallas Cowboys - They were worst than their record last year. This year it catches up to them although I can see why they like Quincy. 31. Carolina Panthers - Quarterback! Need I say more.
