Top 10 teams?

I'll do top 5 for each conference

AFC
Pats
Raiders
Chiefs
Steelers
Broncos

NFC
Falcons??
Cowboys
Packers
Hawks
Giants

I do think Atlanta will have a hangover however. Carolina could bounce back to win that division. Arizona should be better as well.

A healthy Romo on another team might throw off a lot of the lists.

Yep. Along with other FA signings and the draft...

I'll bide my time and check back on this thread in June.

I can't honestly and in good faith make predictions along these lines till after free agency kicks off and the draft is over. Too soon.

Denver could acquire Romo for 1 year and cut him. They are my wildcard team that could change the entire NFL landscape.

Seattle, that's funny. What makes you think Seattle will be in the mix next year? I bet your a homer, :lol:

5 straight playoff appearances my friend. Dallas on the other hand might just be a one-year wonder.

You'll always continue to have long playoff streaks for your teams as long as you keep switching fanbases to the best teams. :wink:

Arizona wins the division next season, sorry.

No running game or O-line, Russell takes too many hits again and gets hurt. The defense is starting to show its age. Back to the 90's for you guys coming up in a couple years.

Post #13 » by **jwise44** » Sun Feb 19, 2017 6:37 pm

I will make my list after the draft, knowing Texans being terrible in drafts after the first round I doubt I'll have us high unless we get romo (:() and maybe a semi bigtime te or wr....think Jeffrey or bennett

bluejerseyjinx · Post #14 » by **bluejerseyjinx** » Sun Feb 19, 2017 6:46 pm

Romo for J.J. Watt. Works perfectly for both teams. Forget the draft, lol.

As long as Paul Allen is in charge I have faith. Your still stuck with good ole Jerrah.

Outside of the obvious mediocrity at QB, I hope they put a lot of focus on that O-Line. I'm okay with C.J. and Anderson at TE for the most part(assuming they don't re-sign Griffin), but another legit WR would be nice as well since Fuller has baby hands. Getting Braxton into that mix might help though.

Still, doesn't matter much when you don't have a QB and your O-Line is meh.

Didn't the Texans draft all offense last year? 2 of which were O-lineman.

RaoulDuke79 · Post #18 » by **RaoulDuke79** » Sun Feb 19, 2017 9:30 pm

Nope. Martin was the only O-Lineman they drafted and sadly he got hurt in training camp. Getting him back healthy should help quite a lot, but he's still young and coming off injury.

They also lost Newton to a pretty terrible injury that I doubt he recovers from, and Brown ain't getting any younger.

Their last two picks were defense, with Reader looking like a good replacement to take over for Wilfork if he retires, though I hope he comes back for one more year.

Yeah I was assuming most picks this year would be o-line especially round 1 and we would focus on weapons in free agency

Regardless I can't picture us being higher than 8-10 in regards to this thread going into next year unless we do great in free agency
