Yea I'll go Seahawks. Depending on how the new additions to the bears defense end up playing, I could see them being towards the top of the conference.
Seahawks may be the best team, but it's unlikely that they will repeat as SB champions. There hasn't been a SB repeat champion since 2004-2005 when NE did it. Right, Steve?
There seems to be something in the league called parity these days that prevents repeat SB champions from happening.
Ragman, we aren't newbies to this game. We know the difficulties of repeating. Does that change the answer to the topic question though?
Saints. we added to our offense with a speedy receiver that can't be covered by Sherman. Our defense will be so physical.
I'd say 49ers, but they may not have a team by the time the season starts. Seahawks will have the Super Bowl hangover, Saints might make the playoffs as a wild card, but they'll have their hands full with the Buccaneers...;) Gonna be the Packers with a healthy Aaron Rodgers.
This may be a biased opinion, but I really do believe the Bears will be included in this conversation before it's all said & done. They pretty much had the best offense in 2013 & I think their defense will be very much improved this season. This could be a special season in the Windy City for the 'Monsters of the Midway'!! :)
SF imo. Strong 2013 draft is gonna pay dividends with Carradine and Lattimore get solid work this year. I think Kaep will improve as a QB and with a healthy Crabtree and Stevie Johnson he will has an excellent WR set
It is really hard to tell who the dominant team will be until the season starts. I Think the 49ers and seahawks will fight it out again to see who goes to the superbowl again. that could change if the qbs get hurt and are out awhile. we should know within the 1st month who the dominant teams are.
People either forget that they have JOhnson or forget that they have Boldin. Crabtree, Boldin, Johnson...not too shabby.
The Yahoo NFL blog, Shutdown Corner, has SF #1 in their Juggernaut Index. Guess they didn't get the memo that Hunter and Dorsey are out for the year.
Cowboys. LOL...just kidding. I think if any team can repeat as SB Champions, it's the Seahawks. They should cruise to the playoffs, and then anything can happen.
