This one is simple.

The Patriots are going to dominate as usual.

I'm a Dallas Cowboy fan, and I unfortunately have to say...

...Patriots will win it.

I am not just saying this because they are my home team, but how can you put some of those teams in this poll and not include the Ravens?

Ravens can or have beaten, recently, every team on this poll except the for the Steelers and Patriots.

If any teams knock the Ravens out of contention in the AFC, it would be one of those two.

And for that matter, I would include the Eagles (as much as I hate them) on the NFC side.

Chargers and Colts also beat the Ravens. I would have included them, but with Rex Ryan Leaving and the 'retirement' by Derrick Mason, I just thought they were the odd man out. They're definitely a playoff team though.

Yeah, Colts did beat us the last 4 years. I was at the playoff game where they beat us after we kept Manning out of the endzone the entire game and they kicked 5 field goals to win. Sad day

But Mason came back so everything is back on track.

Ryan was not the defense. Marvin was there before him and nothing changed when he left.

After seeing Flacco this preseason, I think that he may be the real deal(hopefully) I never get my hopes up too much about a Baltimore QB

3 out of the last 4 superbowl winners rode the backs of their defense to victory. the leagues best defenses this year I think will outshine the best offenses.

so if your pick is a defensive team, expect good things.

- the skins are in the NFC east.



they have the talent... but they lack discipline and leadership from their coaches.

- the patriots are rebuilding, they wont be super bowl contenders this year.

unless they can squeeze past the jets... and if that happens, there will be better teams for them to contend with.

Too early to tell.

The pats could easily be 0-2, The Giants got lucky w/Dallas, giving up 250+ yards on the ground won't win you many games. They can thank Romo.The Titans are 0-2 The Chargers, Steelers could do something and so could the Ravens.The Panthers...........................ahemThe Cardinals I wanna say are a one hit wonder.The Saints are explosive and Brees is out of his mind. Their D I'm not sure about.The Colts are the Colts. Manning, Wayne, Clark, Freeney and whoever. After last night if you're a Colt fan you're a little excited.

So since I'm a Dallas fan I'll say

Cowboys vs Ravens w/Cowboys winning the whole thing.

as a giants fan I have to admit... the cowboys are really fierce.

especially running it. they have tremendous talent.

but the entire nation voted on an espn poll, that they will not win a superbowl with him as quarterback.

that sounds about right to me.

the giants didnt get lucky against dallas, we had three trips to the redzone where we didnt score.

if our offense was more effective down there, the game would have been a blowout.

No Vikings option?

It will be Vikes vs. Steelers, with Favre or Longwell squeaking out a win for the Vikes.

I dont think the giants will ever pull out of their skid and win the division.

I'm getting bored of the steelers and their playoff runs. Someone else needs to win one. Like the CHARGERS!!! COME ON NORV TURNER!!! We need some upgrades to the O-line though. The Oline is ranked 27th in run blocking. Thats why LT has like no yards this year...

I wouldnt mind seeing a underdog team win it, would make things very interesting. But regardless of how many times they have won the superbowl or how many playoff runs they have, still like to see them win. ESPECIALLY when they beat baltimore and cleveland!

The Steelers are good because they retain good players and coaches for many years. Because of this, seeing them in the playoffs is expected.

absolutely. Its a measure of success. Too many teams go through so many coaches in so little time, breaking chemistry, and players bonding. Its one thing I admire about steeltown. But as for my team, its different. A.J. Smith is a total douche and I don't like him as a General Manager. He doesn't care about the bonding aspects that give many teams repeat championships. He tore apart the group that turned the Bolts from a weakling to a powerhouse (schottenheimer, cameron, phillips) And replaced it with a group of unproven people. They are just recently starting to pull things together, which mean Idiot Smith will start to tear it all down by letting go key players/personnel this off season and replacing them with unproven morons who will once again destroy everything.

Atleast the chargers have an o line to protect their qb. Im so sad for the Pack. Rodgers is one of the best QBs in the league but he has no time. After the whole Favre thing, I got a lot of respect for Rodgers. And our D needs to be a 4-3, 3-4 does not work in Green Bay. BTW....I hope Thompson and McCarthy get fired. Two boobs. which is wierd cause I like boobs alot

Part of his losing record is his fault. He needs to learn to throw the ball away when a sack is coming. Hopefully he gets frustrated with the poor management and coaching of the Pack and joins the Vikings after Favre leaves.

I know I am late but...That is the problem he is always getting pressured. In most cases so quickly he can't find a place to put the ball. His options are:A) Take a sack.B) Take a 15 yard penalty with a loss of downs (intentional grounding)or C) Throw an interception

A) is the best choice. And even with so much fail around him he still was the best QB this year statisticly. He is an amazing player and one can only imagine what he could do if he had time.
