What the heck...
NFC East
Philadelphia - McNabb continues to develop into one of the league's elite QBs. This year he finally have the receivers that he desperately needed in 2000.
NFC Central
Tampa Bay - This is Dungy's year. After finally giving in to the need for a legitimate offense, the Bucs take their game to the next level.
NFC West
New Orleans - The Saints improve upon their 2000 performance and become the team to beat in the West. The Rams show their youth on defense as Kurt Warner experiences at least one concussion in 2001. Rams fans will wish that they never traded Trent Green as Joe Germaine flounders in a backup role.
AFC East
NY Jets - Vinny Testaverde comes back with a vengence and the Jets rise to the top of what will be an exciting division to watch in 2001.
AFC Central
Baltimore - The Ravens prove to be even more dominant in 2001. The league's best defense doesn't skip a beat and the Ravens offense gets a slight jump start with a healthy Travis Taylor and the addition of Elvis Grbac.
AFC West
Chiefs - the rest of the NFL will see what KC fans have known all along. Our young talent will shine under the new coaching staff, and our aggressive defense will complement a scorching offense to lead the Chiefs to their first division title since 1997. "Snoop" Minnis will shine in the Saunders offense while Donnie Edwards and Eric Hicks give KC fans flashbacks to the glory days of DT and Neil Smith.
Super Bowl Prediction:
Tampa Bay 24
Baltimore 20
Elvis chokes in the final 2 minutes, throwing an interception that kills their chances for a come-from-behind victory. This proves to be one of the most exciting Super Bowls ever as the league's two best defenses square off. Commentators will flood the airwaves with Ray Lewis vs. Warren Sapp comparisons.
2001 is going to be a good year.
