Looks like a once strong and dependable LB unit is turning out to be frail and thin. Maybe this will hurt their chances at making another run at a Super Bowl.

Vrabel and chad brown are a good cornerstone to build around

I hate dynasties. Hope the Pats crumble this year.

That was my thought last season when their secondary was decimated. Somehow they manage to prevail no matter how stacked the deck is against them. As a huge supporter of the AFC South the Pats have been my bane for the last few seasons by continually knocking the Colts and Titans out of the playoffs. The Pats are likely to win their division again this season. Alot of people are talking about the Jets and the Bills both being capable of pulling together an amazing season, and I hope at least one of them do. Hopefully the Colts, Cheifs, Steelers,Ravens, or whoever they have to face in the playoffs will be able to take them out. Overall I think the AFC looks stronger than last year.

How things change. Wasnt too long ago that the AFC hadnt won a superbowl in like 18 years. Now they dominate.
P.S. Saints sign Deuce to 7 year contract today. Also ass good veteran LB Ronald McKinnon. Better watch out for the Black n Gold this year

Just like the Pats secondary last year, injury filled, ty law out, but young players stepped up, and same will happen for the LB. Roman Phifer is back from injury, he will help alot
