Bears: Numerous free agent signings to strengthen their defense. Jared Allen will lead the defense and fill the leadership void when Urlacher was booted out of town. Cutler will be in the second season of a new system and worked with the coaches all off season. He must stay healthy. They had a good draft getting two huge DT's and a sleeper RB. Take notice. 25 to 1 odds for the Super bowl.
Falcons and Ravens. Both teams are re-tooled and healthy from let down seasons last year.
bears....nah i think jared allen will be slower on natural grass....not like the dome in minny....

The nfc south is a tough division, atl, no, and even carolina can repeat again. Watch Newton succed thgis year for two reasons, 1) smith and his attitude are gone and 2) all the talk this offseason about the problems at WR. they wont be as bad as last year in yards per receiver.
Atl can be tough if that defence can step up. NO, never count out Drew.
TB just sucks, let go of Revis with nothing in return. go figure.

Not only that, even when I was a kid, we had a name for QB's that just stood in the pocket and took the sack instead of moving around - "Totem Pole". Cutler, much like Marino is a "Totem Pole", but an even bigger gina version of it. 3 step drop, either you hand it off, rifle it to a receiver, or take the sack. Why do you think Cutler is like the most sacked QB of the last 3 years? "Totem Pole". Bears will never win the "Big Game" with Cutler at QB, they would've have a better chance with Rex Grossman...... "Totem Pole" - remember it.....

Not 87 yards per game, or even an average of 87 per season, we're talking 87 OVER AN ENTIRE CAREER!!!!!! And that's with like 300 rushing "attempts", so do the math. Cutler's the same guy - 3 step drop, handoff or pass, or eat dirt......
"Totem Pole" - never won the Big Game, neither will Cutler. Sorry if you can't handle cold hard facts...

he had more NFL records as a QB when he retired than ur football IQ 
if u think winning the super bowl is just about the QB, u forgot the RB, WR, offensive line, def line, DB, the coaching staff, the special team, and the even the way the ball bounces. Its still a team game.

You don't have to win super bowls to be a great QB. Its not basketball theres so many variables in football. Now if everyone but the QB plays good in big games thats different. But Peyton Manning and Dan Marino are two of the top three greatest of all time. Cutler is not a Super Bowl type QB but i would take him any day over Flucco. And hes won a super bowl.

I agree that Cutler is not the man.. but u cannot compare him to the likes of Dan Marino.
O.K. - just so we're all on the same page:
Peyton Manning - yeah, the guy's pretty "wooden", but one key difference - he can read defenses
Same thing with "Tommy Terrific" - only in his case it's better coaching.....
How many times do you see these two future H.O.F.'ers picking themselves up off the turf after a hard hit? Three, maybe four times a season? Now, compare that to "Totem Pole Base" "Chief Sitting Cutler".......
The guy is a third off the bench backup at best. Somehow everybody's been brainwashed into thinking he's some great football intellect combined with a cannon arm. I mean for God's sake! The guy steps in last year after another "feminine" injury for Cutler and (arguably) plays better than Jay ever could have dreamed! Bears let this guy go to the Bucs for basically nothing, and spend untold MILLIONS on a nothing in Cutler?
My prediction (and I've seen the schedule) - The "BOO-BIRDS" come out at Soldier field by week, ehhhhh, 9 or so..... Pretty soft early on, but no playoffs this year.......

I do like the Skins as a sleeper this year and potentially the Fins as well. This is mainly due to the Cowboys being horrific again on D and believing that the Eagles will regress at least somewhat. RG3 was a shell of himself last year and if you watched him over the years, he literally had no explosion off his leg whatsoever at times. Obviously affects the way he plants, follows through, and most importantly his mental game. He might just be incapable of staying healthy in the league, but Skins ML at Houston and Miami catching 4 vs the Patriots both look enticing for the first week..

I took them to win the NFC at 22-1 and to win the NFC West at 8.5-1. LB is one of the easiest positions in the NFL to replace, but their safety situation is what worries me a little more (bad safeties tend to give up huge plays).
