Saints and Bengals. I like what the Saints have been doing, especially on offense. Same with the Bengals, so long as no more of them get arrested.

As for the people who said that Dallas or San Diego would make the Super Bowl - WHAT THE **** ARE YOU SMOKING? San Diego, like KC and Cleveland before them, will suffer from PMS (Post-Marty Syndrome) and will likely never play in another Super Bowl. And Dallas hired a complete moron to be their head coach.

I'm going with the Broncos and the Saints. And I'm a Patriots fan, but the Broncos always seem to have our number and they have loaded up.
As for the guy who said the Bengals and Chargers, you do realize that cant't happen, right? Do you understand how the playoffs work?

Saints are an over hyped feel good story who only made the NFC championship game because of an unbalanced play off structure in the NFC. Keep in mind the only play off game they won was by a field goal against the eagles before being crushed by the Bears.

The Dallas Cowboys and The Indianapolis Colts, with Dallas on top.

The Colts may not make it, but Dallas' team is the strongest it's been since The Trio (Aikman, Emmitt, Irvin) left.

Plus, I think Wade Phillips will really do a lot of good for this team. Something between Bill Parcels and Dallas didn't click, but Wade Phillips will impress.

Patriots

The New England Patriots...again. Here's why...This off-season, it seems like the rich got richer, as a team a few plays away from making the Super Bowl spent big during free agency to improve the few weaknesses that showed during that AFC Championship game. Lets look at the key additions, as well as what they lost:

Gains:

Adalius Thomas - He is a very versatile linebacker who has had success in the Ravens defense (a 3-4 similar to the Patriots) and when asked what position Bill Belichick would put him in, he replied, I'm a football player. I don't play a position. Whatever is needed for me to do here, I'm going to do. That's why (the Patriots) have been so successful here because they don't look at it as position. They look at it as football." (sportsline.com) He also reportedly was offered more money by the 49ers, but chose to come to New England because he thought they had a better chance of winning.

Wes Welker - He is primarily a slot receiver. He only scored one touchdown last year, but led the Dolphins in receptions. Many see him as a younger version of Troy Brown, and while he probably won't be playing any DB, he will have a chance at KR/PR and will play in the slot.

Donte'Stallworth - He is a solid deep threat, one of a caliber Tom Brady has never had before, but he has injury concerns and signed what will basically be a one year deal. This deal was big news when it happened, but has since been overshadowed by the Randy Moss deal.

Randy Moss - Possibly the most talented WR in the NFL, Moss has had issues in the past with coaches and on- and off-the-field behavior issues. He has admitted to using marijuana (although he has never tested positive for it), he hit a traffic control officer with his car, pretended to moon the crowd in Lambeau Field, squirted an official with a water bottle, and has proclaimed "I play when I want to play." He struggled last year in Oakland, but did score almost half of his team's TD's through the air. He also seems to want to be in New England, as he took a significant pay cut to convince the Patriots he was worth giving another chance. Tom Brady has said several good things about him, and remember how little of a risk this deal is. If he causes trouble, the Patriots release him, and all they gave up was a 4th round pick. Not a bad risk when you consider the proven talent they're getting.

Kyle Brady - he is one of the best blocking TE's in the NFL, and was signed to make up for losing TE Daniel Graham to the Broncos

Losses:

Daniel Graham - A good blocking TE who was a decent threat as a receiver, the Patriots still have Benjamin Watson and David Thomas as threats through the air, and F/A acquisition Kyle Brady will easily make up for the blocking ability lost.

Corey Dillon - He asked to be released by the Patriots when he saw that Laurence Maroney was going to end up taking over the starting role, and will most likely retire after being unable to find a team interested in his services.

Tully Banta-Cain - He was a solid OLB, getting good playing time and playing well, but the addition of Adalius Thomas seems to make his loss a lot easier to take. He was signed by the 49ers.

Marquise Hill - He didn't make huge contributions on the field for the Patriots during his short career, but he was well-liked by his teammates, and I felt the need to mention him after his tragic death in a water-skiing accident.

Asante Samuel (maybe) - He was franchised by the Patriots after tying Champ Bailey for the NFL lead w/ 10 interceptions. They were unable to work out a long-term deal, and he has yet to sign the franchise tender.

The biggest question right now is at CB, with Asante Samuel still a no-show. Behind Samuel, they have Ellis Hobbs, who has shown potential, and played well at times last year, but hasn't shown the consistency of a shutdown corner. They signed Tory James who has had 4,5,8,4,4,and 5interceptions in his last 6 years, and will be in the mix at corner, especially if Asante doesn't come back.

The biggest strength is probably their passing game, with Stallworth, Moss, Welker, and Kelley Washington joining Reche Caldwell, Troy Brown, and Jabar Gaffney at receiver. TE Benjamin Watson is a reliable target, and Tom Brady is one of the best QB's in the league, who will find whoever's open and get them the ball.

The Biggest surprise will be:

WR Jabar Gaffney - in 3 playoff games he had 21 receptions for 244 yds and two touchdowns. He was also the first person in playoff history to have back to back games with 8 or more receptions and over 100 yards. (patriots.com) He really looked comfortable with Tom Brady, and with Stallworth's injury history there could be a starting spot opened up for Gaffney, who will take advantage of every chance he gets.

Projection:

The Patriots will be a very good team who should have no problem wrapping up their division, and will most likely get a first round bye. The Chargers may have more talent on paper, but the Patriots have one of the best coaches in the league and should have a good chance if they play. The Colts, the other team in the "big three," has lost many players this off-season, most notably Tackle Tarik Glenn, who was a big part of the reason Payton Manning is so well protected. Barring injuries, the Patriots will have a very good shot at reaching the super bowl, and adding one more to Tom Brady's impressive resume.
