Why your team will/won't go to the superbowl
Ok, here's how this game works. The person to post next tells me why the Panthers
1) will go to the superbowl
2) won't go to the superbowl.
Then they post their team and the next to post does the same.
Only rule is, you cannot refute what people say about your team.

They will. They will because they are a strong team I dont like them on bit but I do not dis credit any oppurtunity of them making it to the superbowl.

they will because they have a great, young defense, and will be overlooked.
they won't because it appears their offense is still as bad as it was last year.

They will because they've always had a great QB and great WRs, they've improved in the offensive areas that were always strong
They won't because they lose players with experience in the defensive system, while they can be replaced it was the team chemistry that made that defense effective.

They will because Drew Stanton will hit Calvin Johnson and Roy Williams for many many TD's and the offense will carry the team.
They won't because, well.... it's the Lions, what do you expect?
Philadelphia Eagles

They will because their D will improve with Spikes and Bunkley will stay healthy and play up to their potential, and McNabb will be healthy for once.
They won't because Matt McCoy and Sean Considine will log considerable PT.
Since my team is Philly, just use the San Diego Chargers

They will because of luck
They wont because of the Patriots
Every AFC team
I cant stand the Patriots but if they dont win it all this year it would be a huge dissapointment, they are stacked!!!!!!
Edit - sorry i didnt realize the rules till after i posted, but this answers it for half the NFL

Won't. Too many question marks about the Bucs defense along with an old defense that has had too few injections of youth.
Will if their rookies play up to their potential, Chris Simms recovers from his injury 100%, and Michael Clayton lives up to his potential.

You needed to give a reason why they will
They will because Drew Brees is great and the defense improved through the draft.
They won't because the above is a lie and the defense still hasn't gotten much better.

They will because Alex Smith has weapons downfield in the passing game with newly acquired WR's Lelie and Jackson. And there secondary just got a whole lot nastier.
They won't because Clements is overrated and Banta-Cain will be a bust logging full play time. Plus, Smith is on his 3rd co-ordinator in 3 years.

Won't because their inexperience and lack of offensive production will leave them hunting for a Wild Card spot, which they may or may not get, and will leave them with a tough road to travel to Glendale even if they do get it.

Won't- QB still is a problem and the WR's still haven't leaned how to catch and produce. To many hole with the air game. Secondary still needs some work.

Will-because they have a young and under rated defense(Wimbley, Davis, Jones, Wright)
Won't- because the offense needs some time to click & a few players need to actually reach there potential

Browns will because the young D, including Kamerion Wimbley and new draft pick Eric Wright is going to take a big step forward.
They won't because the OL is going to be too young/unproven and Brady Quinn will be starting by midseason-- rookie QBs just face too steep of a learning curve.
ETA: oops, on the Cardinals then--
Will: Russ Grimm finally brings the toughness and discipline the OL needed to complement the talent of the skill position players.
Won't: Matt Leinart will be adjusting to a new offense that may not be best suited to his skill set and the defense will be in transition as well.
To keep things varied (since we've already done the 9ers): PITTSBURGH STEELERS

Will because Edge will regain his old form, and you will hear a lot of "Leinart to Boldin/Fitzgerald, TOUCHDOWN!"
Won't because A) They're the Cards. B) Despite having playmakers like Dansby and Wilson, they still lack a solid all-around defense.

Will: Great running game, good defense. Santonio Holmes will develop as a #2 WR
Won't: Not enough in the passing game

Will: They have a great defense, and Willis could really bolster their running game. McNair is a great leader as well.
Won't: McNair is hurt, leaving Boller or Smith to take over, or McGahee doesn't pan out.
Tampa Bay Bucs

Chris Simms, Caddy, and that improving o-line will do good and that defense will be solid. With the new additions.
Won't because there are too many teams that are better talent and experience wise.
