Also, and it happens every year but someone will come out of the blue and have a great season. Someone will fall on their face. Cinci surprised everyone by making the playoffs and the Eagles surprised many (not me) by finishing 3rd in the East.

Call me crazy but i have a feeling Seattle will be the surprise team on the up and Pittsburgh on the down. Maybe just for this year.

I think the Hawks will win the WEST and the 49ers will come back down from the mountain....

NFC North

NFC South

NFC East

The AFC is predictable. Especially the North and East. AFC south is the weakest and the west...well it's the west. Pats, Ravens, Steelers are always the top dogs. The AFC south will be won by the Texans now that Peyton is gone. The west is mediocre, even with Manning residing there now. I just don't buy that he's going to come in and be a 100% right away.

The AFCN is a tough DIV IMO, mainly because that DIV DEF is crazy. The worst team in the DIV was ranked 5th in PPG and 10th in YPG. The Browns, if we would've had the worse DEF in the AFCN, we would've went 12-4 at the least.

As evidenced the past few years the NFC East should be the toughest in the league. Every year they beat up on each other and drive down overall records. This last year the entire division was decided by 1 game. Next up would be the tough one, solely based on Tampa and Carolinas recent struggles and the Norths ability to beat the South I give them the nod.

The AFC is pretty cut and dry, East and North rule that conference.

Soooo.... Pretty much the North and the East out of both conferences.

PS: The NFC South will take over as the toughest in all of football all because of :cam:

For the same reason and from a Panthers point of view, the NFCSouth will be the easiest.

My surprise team next year is the Titans while my surprise drop team is Detroit. I just see a slight drop back from them like 8-8 to 9-7 drop from them while finishing 3rd in the division.

Based nothing on last years performance (and solely on next years potential), here is how I would rate the divisions:

NFC North: 3 potential playoff teams: Lions, Packers, Bears

AFC North: 3 potential playoff teams: Ravens, Bengals, Steelers

NFC East: 3 potential playoff teams: Cowboys, Eagles, Giants

NFC South 3 potetntial playoff teams: Saints*, Falcons, Panthers

AFC East 2 potential playoff teams: Patriots, Bills

NFC West 2 potential playoff teams: 49ers, Seahawks

AFC West Division Winner playoff team only (toss up on who that will be, probably at a record of 8-8 or 9-7)

AFC South Division Winner playoff team only (Texans, if healthy, Titans if Texans are not)

      It is like when you go to da buffet at da Golden Corral and dey have all dis food and you get the same thing every time.   There is probably something you would like more, but you go to da same ol racks and get da same ol food every time.  Not sure why I am writing in trailer park dialect, but hey, watcha gonna dooo.

      NFLTR: Panthers Offseason:Team Needs, pending free agents, draft picks

      By MHS831 · Posted

      If we don't go OT, we will regret it.  What bothers me?  Are we going to get a starting-caliber OT at 19?  I think the draft is solid at OT, and the more I read up and watch video, the more I watch Lomu, the more I want him.   I see Freeling as a RT who needs some work in run blocking (since we need to run first, maybe not a good fit) and I see Proctor ending up as a Guard.  After Lomu (assuming Mouigia and fanu are gone), I think we wait until round 2.  In round 2, there are about 3-4 I like (Zuhn--good pass blocker and VERY underrated right now; Tiernan is a very good pass blocker as is Miller from Clemson, but both are not good in the run game.  Max Ixxxxx from Ariz St is impressive too---technically, there is not a of difference in these second tier guys--good in pass pro, need work in the run game.   If we wait until round 2 for an OT, we probably need to sign Nijman and start him early.   I almost think this is what we should do if Lomu is gone.  There is a big dropoff after him, imo, and I think we'd get better value if a stud ILB or edge is there.  Someone like TJ Parker Clemson makes sense. If Lomu is gone, trading back might be the play.
