Besides the Saints, Patriots, and Green Bay, I'm having a hard time figuring out if teams are contenders or not. Ravens have looked good, but somewhat inconsistent. A ton of teams with winning records that look like they could just as easily be 0-4.

We will need to blow out our NFC opponents. Period. We lack AGGRESSIVE play on defense. We are good, but not AGGRESSIVELY good.

I happen to be watching the Ravens D dismantling the Jets. That's what I mean by aggressive.

Well, once the NFL starts only playing 3 quarters per game!

Jeanpierre has a smart layout, I would change some of the wild cards. Taking a risk not listing Pittsburgh, very risky decision because no matter how thick the fog they always find their way down the stretch.

Also let's move to The NFC West why should we all go through all this stress in the South.

AFC

East - New England Patriots
North - Baltimore Ravens
South - Houston Texans
West - San Diego Chargers
Wild Card - Tennessee Titans
Wild Card - New York Jets xx Oakland Raiders

NFC

East - New York Giants
North - Green Bay Packers
South - New Orleans Saints
West - San Francisco 49'ers
Wild Card - Detroit Lions xx Washington Redskins
Wild Card - Chicago Bears xx Atlanta Falcons

All I know is NFC is getting a lot better than the AFC. Colts and Steelers are down this year, the AFC wildcards will be a free-for-all. Yeah the NFC West is still weak, but NFC North and NFC South make up for it, and NFC East still has considerable talent.
