Worst to First candidates

[AllYouNeedIsLovie 377]

This may not happen this year, but it does happen in a good amount of seasons.

 

What team that finished in last place last season do you see having the best shot to win their division this year? This has happened in the NFC South a lot recently, but I can't see it happening this year. While I do think the Panthers will be improved, I can't see them topping the Bucs, Falcons, and Saints, all who were good teams last year and got even better over the off-season. I am going with Arizona just because I think the NFC West is so up for grabs. If Kolb can live up to the contract the Cards gave him, they could be in business.

The only team that has a chance of taking first in their division is Arizona imo. In fact I don't see them being any below the #2 team but I can for sure see them taking it to the playoffs.

[Favre4Ever+ 4,476]

The Lions finished ahead of the Vikings in the NFC N last year.

[AllYouNeedIsLovie 377]

I'll change that then.

[Turry 755]

Titans

[RazorStar 4,025]

Broncos are the only choice.

[.AirMcNair. 1,232]

Titans

 

[Tridentdawgpound 1,043]

The Cards have the least competition so they're the easy choice.

[BLUE 1,026]

Where is the "None of the above" option????

[Sarge+ 3,436]

I'm gonna continue with my Broncos hype.

[BradyFan81 404]

Titans maybe, or Cardinals.

Where is the "None of the above" option????

The only 2 teams I would even think have a chance is the Vikings and Cardinals.

 

The Cardinals because the NFC west just sucks and if Kolb pans out for 'em, then they have enough talent to win 9-10 games and the division.

 

I don't think the Vikings are gonna win the division, but they won 6 last year despite having terrible QB play from Favre and Jackson. If McNabb plays anywhere near the way he played in Philly, the Vikings can win 10 games... if the Packers somehow don't win that many, then the division could belong to the vikings.

 

But I voted for ARZ.

[badgers 380]

Cardinals. It's anybody's game in that division.

[Piggly Wiggly 960]

Where is the "None of the above" option????

[WindyCitySports 407]

Arizona just because their division is so weak, but I don't see any of the teams doing it.

[Alu Alu 6]

I put the Cardinals only because they're in the worst division in football.

[KiLaSix9+ 398]

AZ is really the only team that has a chance in hell of doing this.

[Zack_of_Steel+ 3,014]

Vikings.

[BoneKrusher+ 1,276]

Vikings.

McNabb has something to prove and will make a huge difference in Minny ways for this team.

[Krawnka 282]

Cards, for the same reasons as already posted...they're all about equal, so that division is up for grabs.

[Milla4Prez63 678]

Cardinals are too easy. The Vikings have a shot if McNabb plays well, but not a great one. But they are the only two I can see doing this.

[Anthony 78]

Had to go with the Cards, because that division is wide open.

[Pewter And Red 1]

The Cardinals are the easy choice, i think they'll be at least the 2nd place team in that division behind the Rams. Vikings have no chance at winning that division, no way do they finish better than the Bears or Pack. I think the Panthers have a lot more talent than people give them credit for, but there's no way Scam Newton gets them out of the NFC South cellar this year.

[Thanatos 2,847]

I think the Panthers have a lot more talent than people give them credit for, but there's no way Scam Newton gets them out of the NFC South cellar this year.

 

If by this you mean the Panthers will again be in last, I completely disagree with that. (Nice cheap shot at Newton, by the way, I love ESPN's witch hunt of him, despite the NCAA clearing him.)

 

The South is always, always, unpredictable. While I don't see the Panthers doing it, I'd've never thought the other teams in the South, including Carolina, that have done it before, would have done it when they did. If that makes sense.

 

I'm saying that with the South's unpredictability, the Panthers have far more of a shot than any other team here, with the exception of the Cardinals. Arizona just has a horrible division, so they're the easy pick. Were I to pick a #2, it would be Carolina.
