Best in the NFL? Try the Atlanta Falcons.

Balanced running and passing attack, defense is good enough and they do not lose at home.

1. They are top 5 in rushing attempts

I was tempted to pick them because of that but I thought Rodgers would tear through the Atlanta Pass D(which isn't great) to offset the fact that Atlanta is really good running the ball.

Anyways it is way too early to declaring anyone the best in the NFL imo. That is what the playoffs are for.

3. Well I was just throwing it out there

A lot of people say that New England and/or New Jersey Jets are the best. Maybe but Atlanta is very impressive. Just thought they should get their props.

4. I think it is fine

I agree Atlanta is impressive. I also think other teams in the NFC are impressive too.

6. I'm still not entirely sold on N.E.

Yeah, they're a really good team, but I don't see that defense as Super Bowl material yet. They have to be factored in due to Brady and the coaching, but that defense is suspect big time, imo.

With the Jets it's just the opposite. A solid D and a suspect offense.

I actually think that Baltimore is a good dark horse team to some damage come playoff time, but we'll see.

7. I agree to an extent about the Jets' offense

Edited on Mon Nov-29-10 12:41 PM by JonLP24

but just QB play and Sanchez really isn't that bad. Just in his second year. The running game is terrific, only the Chiefs are better in that department so far this year.

I agree about Baltimore, top 10 running game, Boldin, and a solid defense.

On edit-Chiefs are another team to look out for IMO.
