    Default As of right now, is there a team in the AFC we can't beat?

    I know in years past (heck, even last year) there was just teams in the AFC, we had absolutely no chance in beating on a given Sunday. But this year, given that we get a few breaks, I don't see a team out there in the AFC that we couldn't beat (not to say that we would beat every single team, but just that we would have a chance).

    What team in the AFC would give us the most trouble?

    Right now, I think Buffalo

    3.Any team that plays Michigan
    4.The Pittsburgh Pirates

    Great thread. Realistically, I think Tenesse is the toughest team in the AFC besides us. their defense is monstrous and their running game is legit. Kerry Collins might just be what they needed to become less beatable.

    In the NFC though, I think there are 5 teams that would give us a run for our money, and 3 are in the NFC East. The other 2 are Arizona and Green Bay.

    Too early to say. We play the Jags, Bills, Pats, Jets, and Chargers again this year. We'll just have to see. Our weak schedule a couple months ago suddenly makes us a battle tested team in a couple months.

    If our offense is the real deal, we can absolutely beat every team in the league...("Can" being the optimal word there)...but unless our defense comes around and plays better...we'll lose more games than most of us are thinking right now.

    With our offense I'd give us a sluggers chance against anybody in the league. I think we can score 30 against anybody in the league, trouble is I think we can give up 30 as well.

    I think it's Pittsburgh.

    They would put up a lot of points against us. Parker would go for atleast 150 and Big Ben would top 300. In my opinion, they're the most complete team in the AFC.

    And if we played SD again this week, I don't think there's any way in hell we'd beat them. I wouldn't be surprised if they crush us in week 17.

    Indy, Tennessee, and Buffalo are teams that we'd probably struggle against. NE also. I think we could beat them all. But right now, they're all very good and not one dimensional like we are.

    Honestly, people talk about Dallas being the best team in the league but their defense is about the same as ours and I'd put our offense up against theirs our anybody's.

    i think the only 2 team that can hang with us in the AFC is Indy, cause Peyton always has monster games against us, and Pitt..good offensive and defensive team. Tennessee IMO couldnt hang with us, good D, but they cant put up the points.

    If we could figure out a way to run the ball even with our semi weak "D" i'd say we could beat anyone in the NFL.....(almighty joke of jets included )
    ...they always act tuff in the club, cause they know i just got searched at the door.

    Romo is way too inconsistant to beat us, I think we don't have any problems against the Cowboys. The games that worry me are Buffalo, Carolina, and San Diego.

    Jags- No- to hurt, no oline, no offense.
    bills- NO- Great defense, not a great offense, only can run lynch.
    NE-NO- even healthy brady- their defense in passing is WEAK!!!!!
    TENN-NO-good defenseive fron 7. But not deep balls, they have only a run offense.
    Jets- GET REAL! - the jets suck, they might hang close, but they could never beat us, unless we fold and they play out of this world.

    Indy- peyton can and usually does, pick us apart.
    Pitts-great D, good O, Toughest team in Confrence IMO.
    Chargers- Good team, Good underrated defense. LT healthy, and this team is once again a powerhouse.

    Those 3 teams, will give us the most trouble.
    The Plan at the moment:

    Draft: Trade a 3rd and 6th this year to a team to move up and get a 2nd next year (this will happen).

    Players I want:
    Jake Ferguson (Jake Butt) or Jelani Woods or Jeremy Ruckert or Cade Otten (owen daniels) at TE- All 4th rd or later.
    Troy Anderson LB 3rd/4th rd (yay Timmy!)
    Neil Farrell, JR DL- run stuffer- bye purcell
