Like the Cardinals, the Rams have the unfortunate luck of playing in the league’s best division. Fisher has built a great defense and solidified it even more in this past draft. Quinn, Donald, Long, and Brockers form the league most formidable defensive line.
The Rams have turned the RG3 pick into a king’s ransom, but it’s all on Sam Bradford now to step up and prove why the Rams chose him over RG3 and Johnny Manziel.
The NFC North is a two-horse race, and even though Chicago has more overall talent than GB, I gave Green Bay the edge because of Aaron Rodgers. The D was horrible last year, but the additions of Allen, Houston, and Fuller should have the Bears feasting on the competition in 2014.
An extremely overrated team, but because they are one of three teams that I think has a true elite QB, they’ll continue to be a perennial playoff team.
What A Shame the Cards play in the NFC West, if they had made the playoffs, they would’ve made a nice little run. This team went 2-4 in their division last year, meaning they went 8-2 against everybody else. Zona was the only team to take out the vaunted Seahawks IN Seattle. They adressed their biggest need in the draft by selecting safety Deone Bucannon in the back end of the first round.
This the team is the definition of “a quarterback away”. It’s not crazy to think we’ll have 3 NFC West teams in the playoffs this year.
I think they’re the third best team in AFC. If Andrew Luck can be protected and keep the turnovers to a minimum, it’s not crazy to think we’ll see a Peyton-Luck AFC title game.
They weren’t able to do much in the draft because of the missing first round selection, but they did invest in protecting Luck with their first selection.
I wasn’t big on the Pats draft; I loved the Easley selection, but Garoppolo in the second seems like a waste. This team is in win-now mode, and should’ve used that valuable second round pick on a resource that can help Brady win another ring.
Regardless, the Pats are the second best team in the AFC and they’ll continue to reign on the NFL so long as they have Brady and Belichick. But it’s hard for me to believe they’ll come out of the AFC, let alone defeat one of the NFC powerhouses in the Superbowl.
They may be the third best team in the league because the NFC is far superior to the AFC, but I’m giving Peyton’s squad the benefit of the doubt.
The Brandin Cooks selection was great; Lance Moore and Darren Sproles have been jettisoned, so Brees' weaponry had to be restocked. New Orleans could very well be representing the NFC in the Superbowl in 2015.
Easily the best team in the AFC, but have they done enough to put themselves in the tier of the Seahawks/Niners? Time will tell.
They looked impressive all throughout the NFL season and had an impressive offseason stockpiling defensive players like Ware, Ward, Talib, and first round pick Bradley Roby.
I want to believe the Superbowl was an aberration, but it’s hard to forget the 35 point pounding on the biggest stage in American sports.
