There seems to be alot of grief over me picking the Colts at # 2. Let me explain, it's as simple as this: If not for a dropped Reggie Wayne pass the Colts hold on to beat the Pats this year. Plus, the Pats handled the Cowboys pretty easily when they played IMO so I can't put Dallas over Indy. As for your argument dyhard I don't see how you could put GB over the Colts because like I said the Colts I still strongly believe should have beat the Pats and the Packers, Favre or not, IMO still wouldn't have beat Dallas and Dallas was handled pretty easily by the Pats. Plus, the Colts play a harder schedule and their other losses besides vs the Pats were due to injuries IMO. I also think Pit should be above the Jags because they've been dominant in all but one of their wins where the Jags have been squeaking by more often. I can see the Jags D containing Pitts. offense a little, but I can't see the Jags offense doing hardly anything vs the Pitts. D. The Bucs play in a harder div. than Sea. does and are undef. in it. Their D is better than Seattles and their offense is very close to Seattles too.


Cowboys can beat the Colts and the 'Boys beat the Packers(not sure if I can use that for an arguement). The 'Boys are better than the Packers are and are argueably the best team in the NFC.

I think that the Packers(if everyone is healthy) could beat the Colts. The Packers would stop the Colts passing wise and rushing wouldn't work that well. The Packers would put pressure on Peyton Manning and he would be pressured to make a bad throw and throw an interception. The Packers have a very good offense and would be able to run the ball well and pass the ball well. That is why they are over the Colts.

The Steelers are a good team, but they lost to the Jets and then they almost lost to the Dolphins. That is the reason I have the Jaguars over the Steelers. The Jags are a good team, and they have a very good running game and defense. The passing game isn't great, but it does it's job. They are good and that is another reason why they are over the Steelers.

I have the Seahawks over the Buccaneers because Seattle is a very good team. Yes, they do play in a crappy division, but they are a good team. Matt Hasselbeck, Shaun Alexander. Those are two big playmakers. More in next arguemen


You didn't say why you think the 'Boys could beat Indy. Yes they're the top team in the NFC but that doesn't mean that they should get a free pass and automatically be #2 in the league rankings. Like I said the Colts should have beat the Pats and the Pats handled the 'Boys pretty well. The Colts passing attack is arguably as potent as the 'Boys and the Packers looked lost against Dallas in pass D so I don't agree w/ what you said about GB easily stopping the Colts air attack. They couldn't put pressure on Romo and his line isn't as good as the Colts line. If the Colts did a good job (which they did) against the Pats in the air and mostly on the ground then why wouldn't they be able to stop the Pack ? Other than a couple brain-farts the Steelers have been dominant and in a tougher div. than the Jags are in. I just don't see the Jags off. moving against the Steeler D when the Jags staple is running & the Pitts. D staple is stopping the run. Forcing Jax 2 throw to win is bad for Jax, get me ? Also, Shaun Alexander is a shell of his old self right now and their D is worse than the Bucs D easily. The Bucs off. is alot closer in talent to the Sea. off. than the Sea. def. is 2 the Bucs D.


'Boys can beat Indy because the Cowboys average 6'6", 320 lbs for their offensive line and they just can run and pass all over the Colts. The Colts, with Freeney out right now, are just not able to pass rush as well and Tony Romo will just sit in the pocket and will have all the time in the world. Plus, they have Jason Witten, TO, Glenn, and Crayton all to pass to. It just doesn't look like the Colts can beat them when the 'Boys are like this.

Kabeer was out and Jarret Bush(CB) just completely sucked and the refs kept calling pass interference on them. The reason why they were not pass rushing well was Kabeer was out and he is a big part. Plus, they weren't doing well and had a bad game. If Woodson would've played, they would've stopped the Cowboys better. Plus, Brett Favre got hurt and Aaron Rodgers did well, but not as well as what Brett Favre would've played. That is why they lost and if they would've been healthy they would've won.

Seattle would be able to beat the Buccaneers because of their passing game and Maurice Morris isn't doing a bad job. Maurice Morris:

90 carries
382 rushing yards
4.2 YPC
2 rushing TD
1 receiving TD
3 total TDs
