They get better each year and I find myself saying, "This is the year they get a wild card." With a healthy Schaub and a consistent offensive line they have a dangerous offense. Defensively they are improving, adding Brian Cushing will bolster the front seven.

This team looks revamped. Not only adding Matt Cassel (still a question mark but has potential) this year, but who remembers last year's draft? Glen Dorsey, Branden Alberts, and Brandon Flowers are three young players who can really make an impact on this team in their 2nd year. I hated the team taking Tyson Jackson 3rd overall but it is what it is. (Note: I also hated the Texans taking Mario Williams 1st overall as well)

The Seahawks have gone downhill ever since their Superbowl XL appearance. Injuries to key players have been the team's M.O. in recent years. With Matt Hasselbeck returning and the addition of T.J. Houshmandzadeh this offense should see improvement. Young players like Aaron Curry and John Carlson will also play big roles in the teams bounce back year.

This is a team that was a win away from last year's playoffs. The defense still has gas left in the tank but the question is offense. Jay Cutler should answer that question with his big time arm and playmaking ability. Greg Olsen is poised for a breakout season and Matt Forte is a threat as well. With a top flight receiver, this team could be Superbowl bound, but for now I'll just stick to a divisional title.

In my opinion Drew Brees is the NFC's best quarterback. A shakey 2007 campaign had critics talking, but 5,000 yards later they shut up. With Vilma setting in nicely and the addition of Malcolm Jenkins the defense is starting to take form. Most likely not good enough to make it to the big game, but a wild card run could be possible.
