If there's one thing I've learned about the NFL, it's to never pick the SB teams during the offseason. Remember how crappy everyone thought the NFC West would be two years ago? Remember how Houston was supposed to wipe the floor with AFC in September? Remember the 2011 Eagles?
The Rams have a very stingy defense and were sneaky good this year. They've got a good young RB, and that O-line is slowly being rebuilt. Give Bradford some WRs (Jennings or Cruz?) and they can contend with the Niners and Seahawks.
AFC South should interesting this year as well. Titans have made some solid offseason moves that could put them in the conversation with Indy and Houston.
I'm not even counting out the Eagles yet this year. I still think there's a good shot Kelly goes with Foles and builds an offense around McCoy and Brown. If that offensive line comes back healthy and they can get a few more pieces on defense, the playoffs aren't totally out of the question. Realistically, I think they're probably a 7-9 team, but who knows.
The only teams I'm pretty sure are going to be awful this year are the Jets, Raiders, Jags, Bills, and Chargers.
