Yea, Sapp and Washington are getting old, and the decline in stats came in teh form of less sacks. No one ran on washington last year, and adding sapp next to him wont hurt.
I picked the raiders becasue they had four wins last year and shoudl greatly improve on that, making them a surprise team. HOWEVER, and im surprised no one mentioned this, they do have norv as their coach, heheheh

ray buchanon got benched on a team that had the worst secondary defense in the league so that says something about how much he's declined the past couple seasons. and with sapp and washington they've both had a decline in not only sacks but tackles as well. the raiders could make a turn around this year but with their team being ancient by nfl standards in key positions as well as being in a division with 2 contenders for the AFC crown, and having a new head coach who hasn;t had much success since we was with Dallas all those years ago doesn't help their chances much in my opinion.
