... at the end of the year will be:
Chicago Bears - there's a reason the Steelers let Kordell Stewart go. Although, its not like the Bears had much choice. Last year's Cinderella QB Jim Miller got hurt and is with the Bucs this year, and he still hasn't played a down for them.
Arizona Cardinals - They never should've given Jake Plummer all that money. He was overrated and the Cards are still suffering from not being able to bring in more young talent because of Plummer's salary cap impact.
Cincinnati Bengals - Say what you will about the Redskins' suckage, at least there's hope for them under Spurrier. Corey Dillon and Peter Warrick are good, but they're not going to carry the Bengals. The team's winning ways will begin at the front office. Once they get their plan together, they'll turn around.
On the bubble:
St. Louis Rams - once they learn how much Kurt Warner really does suck, they'll be better off. Then again, they fell into the same trap as the Cardinals by falling in love with a QB that was overrated and paying too much for him. I look for them to suck for at least another year.
New York Jets - if you want to see the impact a QB has on a team, just look at what the Jets are doing without Chad Pennington.
Atlanta Falcons - the only thing this team needs is a running back, a quarterback, and a safety. Michael Vick fills two of those voids. After watching them against the Bucs, I see a team that's losing its motivation to try. The team is losing faith in Doug Johnson, and Doug Johnson is losing faith in himself.
Excluded:
Houston Texans - hey, they're on in their 2nd year of play. Sure they suck, but they're still in their infancy. I give them two more years before they can really be judged on the same level as the other teams. Same with the Browns - they're still a new team.
