Contenders

KC
Pittsburgh
Seattle

Straddling the line of contender/pretender:

Buccs
Titans
Saints
Ravens
Packers
Dolphins

Pretenders:

Bears
Bills
Colts
Rams
Cardinals
49ers
Browns
Raiders



It’s an AFC year. Might be a solid bet to get a SB line on the AFC team now

Not sure what your question is but that’s a good football team.

Sure, above average, but in no way a borderline contender to actually win a super bowl.

I disagree, obviously.

No. Are you? Have you seen a team with an aging quarterback and a terrible defense that got beat by a 2 win team halfway through the season be a serious contender when both conferences have significantly better teams out there?

Those are extremely specific qualifications so I’m not sure I can say I’ve seen that but I’ve seen one of the best teams of this century lose 31-0 to a bad team and then go on to win the super bowl and have seen several SB champions lose multiple times by double digits. That’s why I asked.

Btw, it’s hard to pretend I don’t know you’re darkside

Your 5 wins are just as fraudulent as the Bears are.
You're not taking that defense into the playoffs and expecting to see any success, are you?

Expecting is a strange word there. I’m not expecting them to win the SB but I for sure think right now they are capable of it. Hence my ranking of them.

Bears and Browns don’t even qualify as pretenders at this point.

Its not strange at all. You seem to be expecting success for this team including the playoffs. If you think they're capable of winning the sb (sensible chuckle) then you seem to be expecting some playoff success. Unless you're expecting to win the division (likely) and be a one and done.
I mean in this thread you've been more tempered than in other threads I've read your work in. So there's that cover you've created for yourself but you have fancied the Packers the class of the nfc this season.

I think I'd probably bump the Ravens up to "contenders" still.

I literally ranked them in the same tier as the dolphins lol. You’re trying to pick a fight where there ain’t one and if you don’t think they are capable of winning the SB cuz they lost a division game to a bad team by 6 I have to revert back to my previous question of if you actually follow the NFL.

I would like to. I don’t think there’s been a bigger Lamar backer on here than me but he’s been bad so far this year. Need a big step up there.

Defense is still really good. Top-3 coach in the league.

You won’t hear any argument from me. If you want to put them in the contender tier I won’t argue. I think they’re a great team still. I’ve just taken enough L’s on them recently to knock them back to the straddling line :lol:

To me the sneaky team that should probably be higher than pretender is the Colts. And I'm not a Rivers fan.

I disagree strongly. I don’t think they are good at all. But I’m obviously open to the idea I’m wrong. The two teams I could see making a leap from pretender are the Bears and Cardinals

I feel strongly that the Bears suck. I can't figure out the Cards at all.

The Colts have a pretty good defense and a good O-line. Taylor has been good so far.
They aren't flashy, they're pretty boring, and Rivers scares me in crunch time.

Oh and I don't think they're capable of winning a superbowl because their defense is terrible. And their QB is old and weird.
Losing to a terrible team was just a symptom of that.

Seattle D is too lousy to be a contender. Whoever wins the NFC will get smoked in the SB.

Too generous toward the Dolphins, Saints, and Packers (unsurprising). The Dolphins win was great but Tua is an unknown and they're just playing him to see if they should draft a QB next year or not (they have potentially a few high picks next year by virtue of owning the Texans' first two picks). Saints ain't going anywhere with this year's version of Brees. Packers are very sloppy and this is the second game out of the past three where Rodgers just decides to shut it down mid-game and take the second half off. Not good when the offense is the strength of your team.
