Today, as promised, this blog will project the South and West divisions of the NFC.
The New Orleans Saints, last year's feel-good story, return for more as they look to defend their division championship. The Saints will successfully defend that title and return to the playoffs. They also have a good chance to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl, behind QB Drew Brees and RB Reggie Bush.
The Carolina Panthers will bounce back strongly this season to contend for a playoff spot. Tampa Bay will be mediocre, and the Atlanta Falcons will wallow in the damage brought on by soon-to-be convicted felon Michael Vick.
Projected Standings:
New Orleans 12-4
Carolina 11-5
Tampa Bay 4-12
Atlanta 3-13
The West division has been touted by some as the most improved division in football. I'll believe it when I see it.
The Seattle Seahawks will be the class of the division once again. San Francisco showed a lot of improvement last season, but will slip back this year. St. Louis will have a high-flying offense, and not much more (they better have a high-flying offense, as I have Marc Bulger as QB in both of my fantasy leagues). The Arizona Cardinals will be the Cardinals once again, showing flashes of brilliance and not much else.
Projected Standings:
Seattle 10-6
St. Louis 7-9
Arizona 6-10
San Francisco 5-11
