Training camps are starting to open, and with them will come my annual camp previews.
I run down each division, usually one per day. And this year I may experiment with audio analysis.
A few random thoughts ...
I'm fairly certain the NFL can't wait for the focus to be back on the playing field. Another offseason of off-the-field legal woes for its players, and flat out bizarre behavior in some instances must make the stomaches of the league office's inhabitants turn. ... I think we're going to see a more wide-open race for the Super Bowl than in any season in recent memory, and here is why. There are as many as 11 AFC teams with legitimate playoff chances, and probably 8-9 in the NFC. But the top level of teams in the AFC - the Patriots, Colts, Jaguars and Chargers - is extremely impressive. Just below them are the Steelers, Browns, Bengals, Titans. And there are some potential surprise teams lurking in the Bills, Jets and Texans. I expect the AFC North and AFC South to be hotly contested. ... In the NFC, it's possible the four best teams all might reside in the East. I really think any team in the East would win the North, South or West this season. I fully expect three teams from the East to make the playoffs despite their having to play a brutal intradivisional schedule.
Want more clues about the 2008 season? Check back this week and next.
