TGS Predicts The NFL Divisional Races!
AMERICAN CONFERENCE
EAST
MIAMI DOLPHINS would have won it in 2001 were it not for Fiedler's thumb injury.
NEW YORK JETS Have taken some "hits" to offense, but Pennington + defense = playoffs.
BUFFALO Free agents help defense; Bledsoe helps get team to postseason.
NEW ENGLAND Defense gave way in 2002; too much asked of Brady in tough division.
SOUTH
TENNESSEE McNair healthy; good thing, because defense caved last year.
INDIANAPOLIS Manning helps Colts make a run; is defense up to task?
HOUSTON Texans on the rise; offensive line determines how high.
JACKSONVILLE Players like new coach Del Rio, but Jags have been taking too much attrition.
NORTH
CLEVELAND Browns knocked on the door last year; knock it down in 2003.
PITTSBURGH Defenses now know what to expect from "Tommy Gun."
BALTIMORE Ray Lewis back; but QBs, others too young.
CINCINNATI Will be better under Marvin Lewis, but not enough.
WEST
OAKLAND Still the best in the West, especially if CBs Woodson & Buchanon healthy.
KANSAS CITY Much-needed help is coming for the defense.
DENVER Shanahan helps Jake; how much will Jake help Broncs?
SAN DIEGO More speed on defense, but paper thin and 0-12 last 4 games last 3 years!
NATIONAL CONFERENCE
EAST
PHILADELPHIA Last year's near miss means more focus; new stadium this year!
NEW YORK GIANTS Fassel's Giants always find a way to lose a couple they shouldn't.
DALLAS Returning O-Line, defense not that bad; Parcells guides "baby" QBs along.
WASHINGTON Steve "Superior" now has more speed; do Tunas eat Gators?
SOUTH
ATLANTA Falcons' offense just got faster with Peerless Price & MarTay Jenkins.
TAMPA BAY It's nice to be the king; except for defending Super Bowl champs in the NFL.
NEW ORLEANS Defense still not trustworthy; another late-season fade in store?
CAROLINA Panthers probably better than last year; just won't surprise so many folks.
NORTH
GREEN BAY Even if Packers win, it won't be easy; has Favre committed retirement in his mind?
MINNESOTA GOOD offense; Vikes won their last three in 2002.
CHICAGO No way Bears suffer so many injuries as '02, and they're back in new Soldier Field.
DETROIT "Mooch" is good for this young team; Lions no road wins last two seasons.
WEST
ST. LOUIS If either Warner or Bulger perform well, Rams make a run at Eagles, Bucs.
SEATTLE Big influx on defense; Holmgren best when focused on Xs & Os.
SAN FRANCISCO Defense still has holes; did front office weaken coaching staff?
ARIZONA Cards offense--what's left of it--not close to the other three in the West.
