Not this year, but I also said the same thing about Arizona two years ago. The Rams are on the right path, though, and I hope they win the division just to get a taste of the postseason. Remember, there is someone on this board who had as one of his "locks" that no way would the Rams win more than 5 games this year.

Well being able to draft in the top five almost every year certainly helps (hehe kiddin').
Bradford is going to be the next Aaron Rodgers.

Finally getting football people in place in the organization rather than The Dragon Lady's cronies also helps.

If Sanchez and the Jets can torch the Bears, there's no reason not to believe that Matt Ryan, Roddy White and Michael Turner can't. I'm not saying the Bears defense is a liability, but I would bet on the Falcons any day vs the Bears in the Dome.

I have no argument against other than to say that it's my gut feeling, and the Jets offense is not nearly as bad as people make it out to be. Heck, they average more offensive yards per game than the Falcons and do so with a much tougher schedule in a tougher conference.
 
Cutler has had an excellent run of good luck this year regarding passes that should have been picked. This is nothing new, but his mechanics are horrible (he seems to always be passing while back-pedalling) and his decision-making, while improved, still leaves a lot to be desired. That may catch up with him in the playoffs where he will feel more pressure to force throws and produce.

Also, the same argument for the Bears (being underrated) could be said about the Falcons. Matty-Ice is playing very well, especially at home, and I think people have talked more about Randy Moss this season then Roddy White who is arguably the best WR in the league...and then there is HOF'er Tony Gonzalez. IMO I would take the Falcons over the Bears.

Noted. These Falcons remind me of the '98 Falcons with Chandler. Nobody really bought into them either (at least I didn't) and they just kept winning to a #2 seed and huge upset in Minny to get to the Super Bowl.
 
Cutler has the worst footwork in the league, bar none...but he is so talented and has such a good arm that he gets away with it a lot. He could be so much better.
 
Some interesting tid bits for fellow Phin Fans in here:

-CBS Sportsline has a report up that Parcells has talked Dolphin Owner Stephen Ross into bringing Sporano back next year with a new OC.

-The two highest names on the Phins wish-list are said to be Josh McDaniels or Gary Kubiak should he be fired from Houston.

I find this as welcome news. Did not want to see the Phins starting over from scratch yet again. I really think the bulk of Miami's problems are on the offensive side of the ball and getting rid of Henning for the likes of McDaniels or Kubiak would be an absolute coup for Miami.

Kubiak will be HC in Denver.

Kubiak is staying in Houston and they are bringing Wade Phillips in to take charge of the defense, reportedly. Also, I find it hard to believe Pat Bowlen would hire a Shanahan clone (poor defense and ST's, but explosive offense) 1 year after firing him. Don't be surprised if Studesville gets the job and surrounds himself with top notch assistants. He is well respected by the locker room and around the NFL. He has also handled himself well as the interim HC and brought some sort of honor and respect back to the Broncos organization. Word is he will propose to Bowlen bringing in Jim Fassel as the OC/Assistant HC and the guy that worked as Fassel's DC in the UFL as the new Broncos DC.

Yes, Studesville got the job as interim HC in his first year as a Bronco because the he was already so well respected within the organization 6 months into his Broncos tenure. Players love him, supposedly.

That wasn't what I meant. Nevermind.
