Who are the best teams in the NFL?

1987? wasnt it 85?..the only year MArino made it, his rookie year
 
1. Pats...until they get knocked off by Miami this year
2. Steelers...need to find a way to get to Big Ben...it can be done and Miami has the D to do it--the question is will we have the O this year
3. Eagles...although if they don't get the TO situation worked out they could plummet
4. Colts...if they get a D figured out...very dangerous O
5. Chargers...They're finally starting to put it together...
6. Panthers...a lot of their losses last year were due to injuries in the running game...once it was on-track they did well

My surprise teams for this season:

Detroit...if they can develop a D
Miami...if we can get our O working at the QB position
 
Greetings again Fin fans..

For the poster who said the Chiefs still don't have enough D....

Adding 5 players to the defense has to help. The Rams had an awful defense back in 2000 - they added Aeneas Williams, Polley, Archuleta, and a couple of defensive rookie tackles and they were instantly better the following year.

I think the Chiefs have done plenty on defense. Obviously you guys know how good Surtain is, and what Knight can help with (Even though he is slow, he makes plays which is something the Chiefs didn't have last year), Kendrell Bell is a force when healthy - since his injuries were an ankle sprain and an injury while lifting weights, I'm not too concerned about his health, Derrick Johnson - who was regarded by many as being the best playmaking linebacker in the draft and a decent pass rush specialist in Carlos Hall.

I'm not expecting these guys to come in and be world beaters, but I would think the Chiefs could field a top 15 defense this year with the additions.

The offense should still be potent, even if it does slow down a tad. The line has a great blend of youth and experience with Waters, Black, Weiggman, Roaf and Shields and LJ proved he could run the ball last year even if Priest goes down.

Anyway, my order would be:

Patriots, Ravens, Colts, Vikings, Chiefs
