I'd say Baltimore as that defense is championship caliber. They just need an upgrade at QB and maybe a playmaker at WR and maybe we see them in the playoffs in the near future again.

Baltimore would be a tough situation: that team still has Billick's footprint all over it. It'd be tough going trying to implement your own own brand of football in there within the first few seasons.

If I were a head coach, I'd look for a place where I would have relatively free reign right away to ply my trade, to bring in my kind of players for my kind of football. I don't think I'd have that kind of chance in Miami, with Parcell's massive shadow looming in the background.

For all their supposed incompetence, Atlanta seems to have the best structure in place of those three franchises. They have a (too-) trusting owner, no entrenched philosophy (like that of Baltimore) and a fanbase that understands the need to rebuild from the top-down.

baltimore is a terrible place to be a HC.. their defense is getting old and they don't have any offense.

miami is alright.. same with aging issue

i would say atlanta. they've got talents and youth.

Baltimore, if a veteran coach gets in there (Like the Marty rumor) and they upgrade their offense well in the draft and free agency. We are looking at a team that could take the division again.

I don't think it's that easy for Baltimore. They can't even trust the QB situation, so I see many holes there, and it only continues throughout the rest of the team.

Atlanta still has a solid defense to build around, however, the offensive needs to be built, and that's not an easy task.

Baltimore is gonna be mighty attractive if we trade for McNabb.

Washington!

But seriously, Atlanta because you're given more of a chance at totally rebuilding.
