My personal opinion on who I think the best teams are this season.
10. LA Chargers
With an updated defense and Phillip Rivers looking for a super bowl before he retires I think they have a huge shot at winning it all.
9. New England Patriots
I think they're overrated af but they are somewhat good at least and have made the last 3 super bowls I believe? With Gronk still seeming to produce well I think they'll be fine, however Malcolm Butler and Danny Amendola leaving are HUGE blows to the team as a whole.
8. Baltimore Ravens
I think these guys are one of the most underrated franchises in football. They make playoffs or are at least close to them every season and Flacco is a strong quarterback who has won it at all before. It's not like he's smoking Jay or anything. Their defense is their key factor thought, with people like CJ Moseley leading the charge. The only bad thing the Ravens have done the past couple seasons is get rid of both Mike Wallace and Dennis Pitta.
7. Atlanta Falcons
Yeah they lost but to be fair it was against one of the best football teams in recent history. Matty Ice is gonna have a tough time getting past the Saints but if he and Julio, the best receiver in the football can connect all season long as well as having powerhouses like Tevin Coleman and Mohammed Sanu, I could see them taking the wild card to the end.
6. Houston Texans
Still one of the best teams in football, Deshaun Watson is the second best of the young quarterbacks this season and JJ Watt hasn't slowed down at all along w Clowney. Houston is looking to have a great year if injuries don't plague the team like they have in the past.
5. Pittsburgh Steelers
Big Ben and Antonio Brown still have a connection and I don't believe the rumors that Leveon Bell is not going to try as hard just because he was franchise tagged. With JuJu being an upcoming star as well I could definitely see them crushing especially in the AFC and I do predict they'll win it. The problem is these 4 NFC teams.
4. Minnesota Vikings
Xavier Rhodes, Anthony Barr, Stefon Diggs, Adam Theilen, Kyle Rudolph, Dalvin Cook, Kirk Cousins. What else more is there to say? Those are some of the top players at their respective positions and even though they lost Case Keenum I think their play style can work with anyone.
3. LA Rams
They won the offseason. Period. With upcoming star Jared Goff and Aaron Donald still producing with the best defense in the league and a top 10 offense they have a huge shot at winning it all this year.
2. New Orleans Saints
Now I'm biased, I mean my 2 favorite teams are 1/2 but the Saints are my favorite team and I do have a ton of faith than them. They have the GOAT Brees, Brady aint got shit on Drew Brees, alongside AN ACTUAL DEFENSE THANK GOD WE HAVEN'T HAD ONE SINCE 09!!! Alongside the defense add powerhouses Alvin Kamara and Michael Thomas and we're set to win baby!! #whodatnation
1. Philadelphia Eagles
Now while I love the Saints a bit more than the Eagles I think they're gonna win back to back. They still have the best damn O line in the game, they have 2 starting quality quarterbacks in Carson Wentz and Nick Foles, the super bowl MVP, and they still have the second best defense in the lead with people like Fletcher Cox taking charge. It's pretty safe to say that they will win back to back superbowls.
