Saints have a brand new defense and they've lost that mojo they used to have. Their windows close to shut.

The Steelers may be historically good, but they have a lot of new defensive pieces as well as a transition with their secondary being old and injury prone (Polamalu in this case). And they're OL isn't that good. On the flip side, I have the Ravens dominating because they've already made most of that transition on defense last year and got the right guys in FA and draft to fill those voids. I also think the Bengals (and no, Hard Knocks has nothing to do with it) being very dominate in that division. They have a DL that maybe the best in the game, along with great skill players (Giovanni Bernard is going to surprise some people). The Browns defense has gotten better with Ray Horton.

Cowboys; well as I said previously, there were a few games which I easily could have picked them but I'm predicting a Fired Jason Garrett midway through the season and that really screwing up the team. I don't see that OL helping Tony Romo. I don't see how the transition from a 3-4 to 4-3 will be that easy. Monte Kiffin couldn't stop the read option/pistol at USC, how will he do that in the NFC?
