Also, "down" is a relative term. 6 teams from each league make the playoffs, so it doesn't matter if the bottom 6 of the 12 playoffs teams are AFC teams, it's going to come down to an NFC vs AFC Super Bowl and winner take all.

As for Houston, I have the complete opposite stance. If you question Andy Dalton, how do you not question Matt Schaub? What has he ever done? They also don't have a "nasty offense." Their offense has some talent, but it's certainly not even in the top 5, let alone considered nasty. Hard not to question Johnson, Foster and Daniels in-terms of durability either.

Indy, while they had a great year last and certainly have a bright future, to assume they will end up "improved" is foolish. I'd bet they don't even win 10, let alone improve. They might be a better team, but on-field success may not show it.

Let me also say that I think Baltimore clearly falls, Pittsburgh is around the same (or slightly better) while the Bengals and Browns have the best potential in the North to exceed what they did a year ago.

Then COA brings up Dez Bryant?

Oh well.

Last comment on the Texans/Bengals comments. This isn't even close. A lot of Bengals fans (I know, I laughed too because there's only three of them) aren't sold on Dalton. He's going to have to make a monumental leap, which I don't see happening, to be a championship caliber QB.

People seem to be forgetting that Houston was the odds on favorite to rep the AFC in the Super Bowl before Cushing went down with that injury. That made a HUGE impact on their defense and they were pretty pedestrian after that. If he (Cushing) comes back at full strength this year, that will be right back at the top.

Montario avgs 38.25 carries a yr for his career and has an avg of 3.5 yds per carry. Can we cut this fucking bum already and bring in a decent back up RB? Think about him from a non browns perspective, if the browns brought in a guy who sucked this hard would you guys be so nice about it?
