I really, really, really don't get the lovefest the media has with the Falcons. Their starters were totally abused in the preseason, and they have the worst defense in the South. And they're 8th?

On the flip side, how is New Orleans so low? They played great in the preseason and everyone knows how good their offense is. Even if they're the third best team in the South, they're still better than the 18th in the league.

Not surprising, considering it's ESPN we're lucky to be in the top 20.

Sando, the guru of the ranking, has a bias against the NFCS. He's the NFCW blogger and besides the Rams, everyone in that division is ranked a bit high. Chadiha is the only judge that has any love for the Panthers. Clayton is usally unbiased in his assessments. I have no idea what is with the other guy (with the crazy last name-- Khaharsky?) and his beef with the Panthers.

...

I picked the Saints to win the division last year

I picked the Falcons ... I’m thinking the offense can carry this team and the defense will get better as the season goes on.

Some people refuse to learn from their mistakes.

I'm a little surprised the Saints are this low.

Let's be honest, you'd want him on this team.

[R0CKnR0LLA]

Let's be honest, you'd want him on this team.

If it meant trading our defense for Atlanta's then no.

It's nauseating how biased these power rankings are.
