yup. all those teams have won a SB recently and have Elite QB's.

So... Only three teams are ranked higher than they should? =D

Giants are too high. And yes, I know but I don't see them coming close this year.

Dallas 15! Love it!

We play the 3 higher rated teams this season.

FACTS

Overrated

Greenbay is gonna get knocked in the mouth so hard every body in the nation will take notice. book it. Last i heard they were having tackle problems. Cowboy and Aldon are gonna be foaming at the mouth. This team is ready for the best competition in the league. been a long time since i could say that confidently.

Giants are massively overrated going into this year. I'd put them at 11 or 12.
