yup. i went back and looked. it was never close

i just added up total number of wins of the 4 teams in each division for each year. didn't go through the work of taking the lions out of the equation because really..it wasn't even close.

2008-yup. having some wins from the lions would've helped.
North-25
South-38

2007-wow. AFCS was beastly this year.
North-35
South-42

2006
North-30
South-34

2005
North-29
South-32

2004
North-29
South-33

2003
North-31
South-34

2002
North-25---really. the packers had half the wins.
South-31

Freeney and Mario are givens but I wouldn't put Mathis there.

I would say in no order;

Freeney, Mario, Allen, Peppers, Abraham, Osi, Tuck all above Mathis.

It wouldn't be fair to discount the Lions. The Texans were a friggin' expansion team.

Yeah but we had Matt Millen as our GM which is 10X worse than being an expansion team.

why is this a discussion? the NFCE is 10x worse than both..

I'm going with the AFCS. Last yr. was a down yr. for the Jags. they were totally plagued by injuries. Before that though they were the most physical smash mouth team in the south. Last couple of yrs. the Titans have become a better team, (taking VY out, sadly made them better.) The Colts, y'know every year I think this is the yr. they fall off, yet every yr. they turn out a good team so you know what I'm not dicounting them yet. My team, is also a better team this yr. So in the south any of them could take it and 2 others might have a shot at the playoffs with the other close behind.

The north, I respect the Vikings, but I don't think Favre will make them that much better, he takes to many risks and that line hasn't really been known for it's pass blocking. (I don't really like them cuz' Allen took out our QB last yr. in a bad play and Favre almost took out another guy this yr. in another bad play. That aside I won't deny their a good team.) However the Vikes will only fare as well as their QB's so who knows. The Bears and Packers are both improved, they would definetely contend in the south. The Lions look improved, but I'm not buying until they show up in the regular season.

Looking at the schedule we both play the NFC west, yay, I hope. However the NFCN plays the AFCN, and we play the AFCE. I hope the south does good.

All that being said, I'm surprised the NFCE wasn't mentioned.

Oh yeah, we had Charlie Casserly and Dom Capers heading up our team.

Why is it I suddenly feel sad.

Casserly picked Mario Williams over Reggie Bush and Vince Young before he was fired, so at least he left ya'll with a going away present! :D

Could be a typo the e and the w are close together which would make it a proof reading fail.
