32. Detroit - It easy to expect at least some improvement, but they still have a long way to go.
31. St. Louis - Sorry to say, but Spags hasnt done anything to make me a believer. No WR's, weak line, shaky QB situation and the defense cant stop anything
30. Cleveland - Maybe the QB competition sparks something, but I'm guessing there isnt much improvement here.
29. Kansas City - Maybe they improve a little bit, but for now, I dont see it.
28. Oakland - Just insert your joke here. I just dont see how this team is any better or even on a path to improvement
27. Cincinnati - Another team hard to judge this early, but they just havent done enough to take the leap
26. Seattle - A full season of Hasselbach and an actual NFL receiver will help, but too many changes on defense
25. San Francisco - Singletary is getting them there, but he still lacks a quality QB/WR tandem
24. Tampa Bay - Way too many question marks to really even assess much at this point. Not good
23. Jacksonville - A team of overrated underachievers wont win too many games
22. NY Jets - Sanchez will surprise people and Ryan can work the defense, but a rookie QB will make enough mistakes to lose.
21. Miami - Last year was an aberration. Expect them to come back to reality
20. Houston - Another mediocre season looms
19. Buffalo - Look to be improved on both sides of the ball. Question is, will TO eat Edwards for lunch and can Jauron lead them
18. Denver - The biggest question marks will be how the defense improves and how they handle a brutal schedule. Should be better than expected.
17. Washington - Will Campbell crack under the pressure of knowing one big mistake and he's gone? Could be a time bomb to unsettle the offense.
16. Chicago - Minnesota and Green Bay seem to have improved more. A good QB just wont be enough to get them much further.
15. New Orleans - Defense should be better and it looks like the running game is alive in pre-season.
14. Baltimore - Lack of receivers and changes on defense will cause them to take a step backwards
13. Green Bay - Rodgers will be more confident and the defense is in love with Capers and his 3-4 scheme
12. Arizona - Is the defense better? Can Wells help the running game? Will Warner last a full season? If yes, then it could be a better season
11. Dallas - Losing TO helps more than it hurts, but until Romo develops a passion for winning, it will be more of the same
10. Carolina - They'll ride a good defense and a running game to a good season, but the end is near for their window
9. Tennessee - See: Baltimore
8. San Diego - They have an easy schedule, a weak conference and tons of talent. it's all up to them.
7. Indianapolis - Manning and Co. will produce as usual.
6. NY Giants - The offense could be in trouble if a receiver doesnt step up, but the running game and defense will keep them in games
5. Atlanta - The additions can only make them a better team, but can they handle the schedule?
4. New England - Brady is back. Enough said
3. Minnesota - Favre adds an element that allows the offense to do ALOT more. Added to a stud defense, they will be scary good.
2. Pittsburgh - Defending champs just know how to do it. A few scares aside, they'll be fighting in the end.
1. Philadelphia - They lost their defensive leaders in Dawkins and Jim Johnson, but they have enough talent on both sides to be better than last year.
