Haha, great post.
Da Bears.....
Firstly, I'm a Philly homer, but here is my honest assessment.
AFC - I don't care if the league is tired of Bellicheck's antics or not, you can't deny the fact that as long as they have Brady they will be a contender. Now add Randy Moss to that equation, and it's always scary. NE has to be the favorite, obviously.
However, not far behind there are a few teams: Colts, Chargers, and Jags, in that order, but it's close. There are other decent teams out there, but these are the cream of the crop. Any given Sunday is always a factor, so it's all a matter of injuries and matchups.
NFC - There's no denying it, the Cowboys are probably the early favorite. The loss of Strahan hurts the Giants, and a few key defensive additions as well as a threatening kick/punt returner makes Philly dangerous again. Minnesota could be dangerous too, especially when you have Peterson and picked up Berrian in the offseason to help him out. As always injuries will play a HUGE factor, especially considering the Eagles. McNabb's last 8 games (when someone with his injury is typically due back and 100%), he was 5-3 with two of those losses coming from each conferences Super Bowl teams. Cowboys are still favored, however, with an injury free Eagles season, they would be very close.
Prediction:
San Diego Chargers vs. Dallas Cowboys
Yes, you heard it here. L.T. will bounce back in a large way this year, and with a maturing P. Rivers, they are going to be dangerous.
