Some surprises there, like NE and Denver. But, what does it look for this year. I think Houston, Tennessee, San Francisco and Buffalo are liable to be repeaters. Or do you think they have upgraded anough to avoid the hall of shame?

Colts

that vastly overrated defense is going to take the plunge in 2006, imo..

I think they're still hurting from that loss to the Steelers in the playoffs, that, and losing Edge will definitely hurt Mannings already shaken confidence...

I think this is the year the pressure of trying to win it all finally gets to Manning...

They might not run the ball as effectively as in previous seasons and as a result, that defense wil be spending a lot of time on the field..they are small and can be pushed around by bigger o-lines..whats made that defense a quasi-good defense in the past is that the Colts have had tremendous leads on opponents,effectively making them passing offenses that have abandon the run...If the Colts offense sputters, the defense will pay the price, IMO..I think the Colts are headed for an implosion, in what could be Dungy's last year in Indy..
