Cowboys, all the way!
You'll see!

Cowboys should have a good team, I think.
I'm interested to see how the AFC and NFC East will play out. A lotta intrigue and changes there.
Cleveland will still suck, and Cinci will go 8-8. I'm hoping my Chargers will take the next step and make it all the way!

Patriots will implode. I predict a 2-14 season.

I really, really would like to see that. I'm sick of all the media Belichik dick sucking.
Much depends if their division isn't a complete panzy conference again. Also, why in the FUCK are they playing Indy at home again? McFly?

It would so make my football year if that happened to the Pats. You'd all the sudden not see 90% of the people around here acting like they're fans...I guarantee more Steeler's apparal.

I think the Vikes are going to tank next year, too.
I don't see Indy making it to the big dance unless they shore up their D big time.

I boldly predict that the 49ers will continue to suck.

Teams to beat
AFC: pats, steelers, chargers
darkhorse: baltimore
NFC: they all suck compared to the top 6 or 7 AFC teams, so doesn't matter

Saints 16-0, SB champs. Ive already got my ticket to detroit booked!
Eheh. But seriously. Saints looking good on most fronts. Still a bit worried about middle of the defense. Ends and secondary are great, just those tackles and linebackers im scared of. Oh well. Really should see some fireworks this year. Fastest receiver corp in the league front to back.
One missed field goal from playoffs last year (thanks Jets). Should make it this year.

Too bad they still have Brooks. He's a medicore QB who guarantees no better than 8-8 for the Saints.
Also their coach cannot control his team and gets outcoached often.
Should be a better year for the Browns, Darc. I think Dilfer will help more than people think, and Crennel will scheme and enable them to have a shot at the playoffs.
Ya, the 49ers will still suck, Arlos. Maybe Joe Montana will get married to a new 20 year old so the Bay Area will have something footballish to discuss. Although unless it was to a dude, the San Fran natives might not cheer too much...

Brooks haters, cant go somwhere without bumping into one.
3000+ yards and 21+ touchdowns 4 years in a row not good enough to win? The defense is the problem, not AB.

What did the saints won i those 4 years? nothing. So the answer to that question is NO.

So Marino sucks then eh.
P.S. Im pretty sure AB doesnt play defense, or WR, or Oline, or RB, or TE, or DB, or LB.

Last 4 years the saints finished:
2001: 7-9
2002: 9-7
2003: 8-8
2004: 8-8
The question you posed was that: 3000+ yards and 21+ touchdowns 4 years in a row not good enough to win?
The answer is no.

The answer is its more than enough to win. But the QB isnt the only guy standing out there on the field.

True. But it's not more than enough to win. It's not good enough to win because the last 4 years the saints is 32-32.

Brooks is a mediocre QB. I don't dislike the guy, he just won't win a game by his 'will' unlike the greats.
On a team with a dominating D he could do quite well, but he will never be in the top echelon of quarterbacks.
The game is not about stats. He will continue to put up ok stats, especially since Joe Horn may be the most underrated WR in the game, and Staley is a true stud, but he'll choke in cruch time. He can't hold Manning or Mcnabb's jock.

Browns are in too strong of a division to have a shot at the playoffs

Probably true. They may be in the toughest division in Football right now.

Look who Manning and McNabb have around them.

Aaron Brooks is a top QB in the league, he is one of the most underrated also.
