5. Bears
Now, they've got their first franchise quarterback since Sid Luckman.

You could have really put all these "six teams" posts into one thread, but whateva.

XOXO

Chiefs? I doubt that. They haven't really improved all that much. They're switching to a 3-4 without a good OLB. They have a QB who I love. They also have Cassell who will be starting. The right side of that line is not that good. Their DBs aren't anything good as a unit.

I know the Falcons and Dolphins made a turn around, but I highly doubt that this franchise is going over 8-8.

Oh, and for the Bears, I hope they'll fall flat on their face. All that overhyping.

At least we can 100% agree on your last line

Chiefs are still terrible, but in a terrible division. I think that is why they made the list.
Cowboys are not making the playoffs. Sure they have all the talent in the world, but Romo still sucks.
I wouldn't be shocked if the Seahawks won that division.
Bears only have improved their QB, and not by a lot. Need someone for him to throw to. Forte is amazing, but he cannot do it all.

The rest I agree with. Pats are stacked. It is time for the Texans to take the division.

I agree with the Pats and Texans. As a matter of fact, that sounds like the AFC Championship game to me. I really like the team Houston has put together.

Cheifs and Bears - Both have overhyped QB's and will miss the playoffs. Not much for supporting casts either even if the QB does play well.

Cowboys - I think they're the 2nd best team in that division and can grab a wild card spot

Seattle - Cardinals are good, Niners are improving, and I don't think Hasselbeck is anywhere near 100%. They miss out on the playoffs again.

Agreed, that would be a great game.
