    Something tells me the Bears will go 10-6 and NOT make the post season

  • Brocosftw said December 15, 2008

    Good list, Wish the broncos were higher. Also wish the broncos could play well. Suday's game stabbed my soul.

    Colts and Steelers are playing their best at right time of year. Titans and Giants not so much.

  • gangreen said December 15, 2008

    The Colts have clawed their way to #2! They are the team to watch out for in the AFC

    What can I say? After yesterday, you may have ranked the Broncos too high

    I think the Eagles are a bit higher after a blowout win against the cards.. a win against the giants and browns..

      Cards & NFC West are a joke. Browns are a joke. Giants are falling. 16 is about right.

  • BooBooGaga said December 16, 2008

    This list is crap... Jets at #5? You've got to be kidding me! They got outplayed by the Bills and can possibly lose the division after spending a gazilion dollars in the offseasons...... to a team that went 1-15 last year!
    Steelers are the team to beat right now...rock solid.... but the rest of your list... pfft!

    Must have definetly been a steeler fan halucinating here notice:number one they got the steelers but at that went on to say if big Ben keeps playing well stop look and listen big Ben isnt by any stretch of the imagination playing well the Pittsburgh defense is keeping them in the game for weeks now so I totally disagree with the rankings.By the way how many times did us Eagles sack Big Ben?Im just saying.

    this is a terrible list, the nfc dominates the afc any day
    • Ronniewoowoo

      Ronniewoowoo replied December 16, 2008

      Why, cause the eagles are in the NFC???? NFC stinks. NFC North and NFC west are horrible. NFC east is inconsistant. NFC south is good. AFC is best
  • giantsrepeat

    giantsrepeat said December 16, 2008

    The Giants at #6 is a joke, granted they should have fallen after 2 straight losses. But these were division games against opponents that still have a chance to make the playoffs, not easy games to win. No Brandon Jocobs in the Dallas game did not help either. And the Jets ranked ahead of them, wow, that is a major laugher.
  • Ronniewoowoo

    Ronniewoowoo said December 16, 2008

    is it me, or shouldn't the Texans be ranked ahead of the Eagles???
    • giantsrepeat

      giantsrepeat replied December 17, 2008

      Good point, the Texans should be relevant very soon, maybe next year. It's about time there is another team in Texas that people talk about.

      NFL ref Ed H. might have something to do with that

  • rankible said December 16, 2008

    The Eagles should be #45... worst coach ever.

  • meandfoo said December 15, 2008

    Don't know what you were watching, but the Ice cold Giants simply out sucked the non impressive Cowboys! To say they got smoked is like saying the Cowboys are a better team after running Bill Parcells outta town for that jackass wearing #81! Tired of idiots having the right to post articles here!

  • flexx1 said December 16, 2008

    NO WAY THE JETS ARE 5, AND THE PANTHERS 3 IF'S THAT'S THE CASE TAMPA AND ATLANTA SHOULD BE HIGHER THEY BOTH HAVE BEATEN THE PANTHERS AND IN THE SAME DIVISION! THE PANTHERS HAVE PLAYED A WEAK SCHEDULE SHOULDNT THAT COUNT FOR SOMETHING?

  • flexx1 said December 16, 2008

    HAS ANYONE NOTICE HOW THE AFC GOT TO BE SO GOOD? NFC COACHE'S! TAKE A LOOK, COLTS DUNGY,SHANAHAN 49ERS,MANGINI GIANTS VIA BELICHEK, PATROITS BELICHEK, TITANS FISCHER, ALL THE SO CALLED GREAT AFC TEAMS GOT THIER COACHES FROM NFC TEAMS WHILE THEY WERE ASSISTANT COACHES, LOOK UP THIER BACKGROUND.

    This list doesn't even make catergorical sense. Are not the Cardinals "Playoff Bound?" This guy is drinking the AFC kool-aid.
    • giantsrepeat

      giantsrepeat replied December 18, 2008

      They are playoff bound gmastamort , but lets face it, they have no defense. And teams do not win championships without defense. But for the long suffering Cards fans to make the playoffs, even in a crappy division is a major step forward.
