    Most Overrated NFL Teams

    Ravens
    Giants
    Arizona

    All lucky to go 8-8 at best

    What about the Cowboys coach.

    This team is mainly overrated because of TO. I feel Dallas is a good team, but not as good as most of these other people seems to think.

    It changes every week. Public remembers last performance. SEA is now overrated, even though they're very good.

    Agree on Seattle. DH. They historically pad the numbers in a weak division. And while today was gaudy for a while, it was against an NYG team understandably flat after last week's miracle.

    Seems to me that SEA is going to get spanked a couple of times along the way, and they are in line for a hangover game next week. Unfortunately, Rex Grossman will be back behind center for the Bears . . .

    BBD - you and I are agreeing too much again...
    I've been on the 6 wins for Dallas wagon, though, since pre-season... But that's me.

    I think Dallas (sooo many Dallas homers will put my life in jeorpardy saying this), Miami (lol, worst fasionable pick ever - what has Saban done in the NFL?), Arizona (lol, yeah a team with no offensive line will go to the playoffs with a re-tread QB...) and Pittsburg (they are good - but not nearly as good as the lines say they are... They aren't playing with any heart right now and Cowher's eyes have no fire compared to what we're used to).

    I'd love to break down my feelings more, but I know no one really cares anyway. In saying what I just did, all said teams will go undefeated, aside from when they play each other.

    Briefly, I also STRONGLY dislike Balt and their D and do not trust them. Letting up 2 touchdowns to a team with no running back is horrible. I don't trust them, even if I love McNair. Baltimore is one of the 2 or 3 3-0 teams I can remember in the free agent era that won't win 1 game in the playoffs, should they make it (mind you, Cleveland has 7 or so STARTERS on the injured reserve list right now - they should've won today).

    Dallas is a strong team this year, Pitt also is very overrated,

    Big Ben is the most over hyped QB in NHL history.

    Baltimore for sure. 3-0 against teams that are a combined 0-8.

    Now that's how you make a statement and then back it up!

    I will tell you something, though. Unlike last year when you knew they were outmatched in many contests, they will have a good chance in just about every matchup.

    I doubt the ravens can win the next one especially a well rested charger team. I guess we will see.

    How does nobody say the Colts? They were dominated from the line of scrimmage by a Giants team that got exposed in two consecutive weeks. Then they were dominated again from the line of scrimmage by Jacksonville. They can't run or stop run and they're the Super Bowl favorite? Gimme a break.

    Agree on the Steelers..... and I'm from Pittsburgh. The defense is very good, but the offense and special teams have been atrocious.

    Miami, Carolina, NY Giants, Arizona are all overrated.

    I think everyone here knows they will cruise through the regular season. But they will be overrated in the playoffs, like always. Its just been a cycle for them the past few years. Dominate in the regular season, then choke in the playoffs.

    The Colts will definitely be 6-0 this season.

    Jets Titans and Skins @ Home all 3 easy winners for Indy..

    Joe and Greg will have something special for Indy. I wouldn't count on that one. Washington is the kind of team that can cause the Colts real problems if Indy comes out flat on defense.

    Can't really say I'm a Redskins fan. I've been ripping them up mercilessly since the preseason. Ask begolf and kalmikrazy who are both Redskins fans. I am from the DC area so I do know the team very well, and I also know that Indy is not the same team they were last year. When the Redskins defense is playing correctly, they can pressure the quarterback and they can cover receivers. When the Redskins offense is playing correctly, they can run the ball. They are the kind of team that can play with Indy.

    You might have a point now that I think about it.. The Chargers,Pats,and Steelers are teams that historically have success against the Colts, and you think the Redskins might fit into the same mold. Redskins might cover but no way can they beat the Colts IMO.. GL nonetheless....

    There's a way they can beat them, although it's not likely. The real problem is going to be the fast track in Indy.

    If you're a Redskins fan, you're looking to win the turnover battle if you want to even have a chance. The Redskins will also need to possess the ball more than 35 minutes and allow zero big plays on special teams. Gibbs and Williams will put together a gameplan that will accomplish those goals. The question is whether or not the players will be able to execute.
