Why the FUCK is everyone so high on the NFC north? Am I missing something here? Anyway, he has us 10-6 along with the Falcons.

the packers are going to be really good. the vikes are going to be really good. the bears will be almost really good. the NFC north this year will be last year's NFC South (the lions being, by way of parallel, the saints. :D )

Brett Favre blows

The Bears D isn't what it was a few years ago plus poo WRs

You can't turn from a 4-3 to a 3-4 overnight

nope.....don't care.

He could say Panthers are going to go undefeated, Smitty will get the Triple Crown again, D-Will and Stewart will get 2000 yards each, and Jake Montana is going to be Superbowl MVP in a blowout against the Bills, this crap is still coming out of Clayton's mouth and it's still worthless.

Let's not love a dumbass when he's loving us and hate when he's hating. Let's just hate.

i think he's a little low on the ravens. i could see 11 wins but either way i think they are solid. they could finish ahead of the steelers.

houston i can see going ahead of the titans....if schaub can stay healthy (no more than 7 games in a year makes that hard for me to put much stock in).

as far as the NFCN goes? way too optimistic there. favre won't last the whole season and if he does it won't be purty.

bears...10-6 i can see.

packers changing to a 3-4 is going to hurt them a lot. 9-7 tops. more like 8-8.

i don't see 'zona breaking .500. warner is wearing down and not nearly as healthy as last year and as far as leinart is concerned...i'd rather have mccown or moore honestly. leinart is overpriced garbage. seattle could actually pass them up this year.

i love the cowboys projection, though.

the change to 3-4 is going to magically change them?

they were bad before. they will be at least as bad as they were last year. it could be worse.

drastic change in scheme like that doesn't bring much success quickly. changing to a 4-3 form a 3-4 would be easier.

they until this year they have been drafting for a 4-3 and most of their personnel was picked for it. now they make a change? kampman is going to struggle. i see the rest of it struggling as well.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By 52Beast · Posted

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
