The Ravens D isnt half as good as their SB team, but is decent enough to keep them in most games. However, their offense is downright weak, with only J Lewis T Heap having any real skill. Expect them to lose a bunch of 10-7, 14-10 type games.

The Ravens D isn't as good as the SB team because there are questions at D-line. We now hae four potential Pro-Bowlers at linebacker, the best young safety in football, a franchise cornerback, and two solid players who can play both S and CB.
The quarterback is the only offensive question mark. Jamal Lewis is Jerome Bettis with real speed. Todd Heap will be called the best TE in football by the end of the season. Taylor and Sanders are solid recievers, and Robinson has all the ability in the world. The O-line is a little unsteady on the right, but you won't get within five yards of whomever's playing QB rushing from the left.
The Steelers have possibly a one-year wonder at QB (we'll see, not everyone can be Warner and Brady). Zerowie could still lose out to Bettis eventually, whic should put THAT in perspective. The secondary let Holcomb pass for 400 yards in a playoff game last season and hasn't really improved.
I agree with the Browns, and as for the Bengals, I can see them 7-9 if things go right. They do have an all-world running back, good recievers, and either quarterback would be good.
