Surprise Team

OK gang, we only have 2 days left until the season starts, so lets think about last years "Bottom of the Barrel" teams. Out of all the teams that landed at the bottom last year, which one is going make a surprise comeback, and make it to the top this year??


From all of the changes I have seen, I am putting my vote in for Arizona. I think they have a real shot, to make a run for it this year......

The New Orleans Saints. Drew Brees will end up bring a great addition for them. Plus that whole Reggie Bush thing...

The Philadelphia Eagles will win the NFC East, and, go deep into the playoffs IMO.

For some reason the only "surprise" that I have in mind is the "lack of surprise." I think it's going to be same old same old incidentally...

I'm hoping my Jets can surprise, we have some young players but I think we're 2 years away.

That would be more of a shock than a suprise.

Right now I think the NFC East might end up being the Giants, Cowboys, Redksins and then Eagles.

As for the Saints... Don't count on them being a suprise

I could see the Cardinals being average to above average this year, so I will give them a bit of credit.

49ers.

i think they had the best draft in the league. not only did they get some very good players (vernon davis, manny lawson, michael robinson, marcus hudson), those guys will be addressing big needs.

plus, i'm thinking alex smith won't have a repeat of last year's performance. he'll have had a year of experience under his belt now, plus he has a dangerous tightend to help him. the improved defense should relieve some pressure off his back, and might bail out the offense at times.

Baltimore

I'm down with the Ravens, who will surprise everyone and win the AFC North.

I'm hoping the Saints have a great season. I'm excited to see what Reggie Bush will do, but I just think the Saints are cursed. They've had some outstanding players before and couldn't pull off anything.

Although it probably won't happen, I'd like to see the Packers go far.

I think the Jets may have a little luck on their side this year and will do better
