I would say Indianapolis. For starters they lost maybe their best player (Ed James) in the offseason to the Cardinals. They also have more than a couple question marks on defense. Add to that the fact that Peyton has shown time and again he can't step it up in the post-season and I think you have a team that is destined to either not make the playoffs or bow out in the first or second round.
But I've noticed that a lot of people are picking them to win it all this season. I don't see it happening.
So what about you? What team have you heard a lot of good things about going into this season but don't see doing very well?

The Minnesota Vikings are WAY overrated. I know their predictied to be a mediocore team, but they won't even be that good. They have an aging QB in Brad Johnson, who wont throw for more than 14 TDs this year with a weak arm and poor receivers. Chester Taylor has averaged only 2.8 yards this preseason,making him another disapointing RB in Minnestoa. The powerless O- Line doesn't help either. The defense is all they can hold on to, but it's not a game chaning defense. 8-8 for the Vikings? more like 4-12

I think the Dallas Cowboys are because they have T.O. and the press is going to be watching them like a hawk, i don't think the Colts are because they were last year, and even though they had an excellent season, they didn't go all the way, so this year, the press won't say any more than they have to about the Colts

I think the Redskins are way over-rated. Defense does not look all that great. The offense is hideous and who knows when Portis is coming back.
Chicago is another team that comes to mind as being over-rated but if there D stays to form, they will breeze through the NFC North as all the other teams in the division stink.

The 'Phish...or...Dolphins...as some call them. I just cannot see how a team with an offense led by Daunte Culpepper, with Bennie "The Penalty" Anderson on its oline, and Mike Mularkey calling the plays can hope to be better than .500

As a life-long colts fan, I gotta say... grrr... you're right. We'll be out of the playoffs real quick
I think the Fins are overated. Culpepper just isn't that good

Peyton Manning is over rated, how many playoff games has he won?...not many.....The Cowboys are overrated, T O will ruin any team he is associated with.
