Default Re: Picks to win NFL Divisions

My Picks are:
NFC EAST: Eagles
WEST: Rams
NORTH: Vikings
South: Panthers

AFC EAST: Patriots
WEST: Chiefs
NORTH: Ravens
South: Colts

I would not put money on all these teams just who I think will probably win the divisions.

I'm expecting a pretty good year out of the Chiefs. Their defense really seems improved this year. Derrick Johnson is an absolute animal. The secondary is old, but if they stay healthy they should be pretty good. Probably 9-7, 10-6 which could be first or second in that division.

NFC North is Vikings or Lions for sure.

Packers were pretty bad last year and they only got worse.

Bears I like but were in a rebuilding situation anyways, it sucks though considering grossman is out.

Detroit is a pretty underated team, Kevin Jones is going to have a great season, I think. They have great young receivers obviously but a less than average QB and a decent at best Defense worries me.

Minnesota has a worse offense then last year because of moss of course, but last year they had Jimmy Kleinsasser out who is a great addition to their offense, they also have a much better defense as we know, better than average to say the least.

I'm not sold on the Viking's defense.

I never thought Smoot was good. He's flashy, comes up with some picks, but has never been a good cover man. Just because he acts like Deion doesn't mean he can cover like him. Winfield is a good physical corner, of course all of the rules hurt physical corners.

Their D line was improved last year. Johnstone and Williams were good. James has looked a little overmatched this preseason. I wouldn't say they are even top ten in the league.

I'm not sure when I missed Napoleon Harris becoming a top five linebacker. But, acording to everyone singing this defenses praises he was the Ray Lewis of the West Coast. EJ Henderson has always been a tackle machine and should get his fair share, but he has never been a real playmaker.

All and all I think their defense will be better, it can't be much worse. I just don't see the Purple People Eaters out there.
