  1. I think you gotta pick the packers to make it to the Superbowl again. They won despite the injuries last year, and they gotta be the favorites if they stay halfway healthy.

  2. The Packers are definitely the favorites, just not mine. The pack has a much harder schedule than the Steelers do. I could see the Pack going back to back though, it's a very possible outcome.

  3. The NFC North & South are gonna be a lot of fun to watch this year. Both Division's have recent Superbowl winners, (The Pack & the Saints). Teams with great season's in 2010, (Atlanta & Chicago), and up and comers, (Detroit & Tampa Bay). There's a lot of talk about Vick & the Eagles, but I think the NFC champion will come from the North or the South.

  4. Chicago won't have the kind of season they had last year. Call me crazy, but the Bears are on the decline. Weak )-line, and somewhat disgruntled Lance Briggs should make for a ticking time bomb in the locker room. Eagles will be solid, with insurance in Vince Young, if/when Vick goes down. They're an explosive team, and should make a deep playoff run. I don't know about "Dream Team," but you can't deny the talent.
