Hate to say it as a saints fan, but Tampa is going to be really good this year, along with Atlanta.

Tennessee will win their division. New Orleans is also a sleeper.

Damn, that Super Bowl must have been really traumatic to knock their asses all the way back to the "sleeper" ranks.

Paxton Lynch has come on strong recently, but Trevor Siemian has the advantage with a year of starting experience. The starter needs to be chosen ASAP because they both have their strengths and weaknesses.

I'm more worried about left tackle, TBH. Donald Stevenson or Ty Sambrailo might be thrown out there over Garrett Boles, and both of them graded out amongst the worst tackles in the league last year...while they were on the right side, not even protecting the blind side. They're terrible.

Theoretically, the team should be improved, but the AFC West will probably be one of the toughest divisions again. Oakland will be gunning for the #1 overall seed in the AFC, Kansas City went 6-0 in the division last year, and San Diego looks to be improved as well.

AFC west should be the the toughest in all the NFL.

NFC could be pretty boring this year TBH. There's 4 teams that are head and shoulders above everyone else, Atlanta, GB, Dallas, Seattle. Tampa is the only team I see possibly stepping into that group.

I suppose NO could surprise if they ever find a defense, or NY if their OL and running game are anything other than terrible.

The pass rushers in the AFC West is just insane.

NFC South will be very interesting.

Falcons obviously the favorites and a lot of people picking Tampa as sleepers.

Panthers will be improved as well. Cam will be back healthy, made some great moves in the draft and off-season to give him more toys to work with. Bolstered up a weak OL a bit and are going to change up play calling to protect Cam more. Defense will be obviously still be very good.

Saints should also be taking a step forward and improve this year.

That division should be a dogfight.

True. Every team in the NFC South will have a really good offense though.

Honestly not feeling the Tampa love. I think they'll be fun but idk about efficient. There's too many good teams in that division for Winston to play like he did last year and win anything. If he's a turnover machine, again, they'll likely finish 4th in their division assuming the Panthers are ready for this upcoming season.
