Pre-season is winding down and the seasons is mere weeks away. The question I want to ask is, what of the NFC South?
We've asked this question before and came up with a fairly wide range of questions. With training camp and three pre-season games in the books, not to mention the first wave of cuts for our various NFC South teams, I'd like to see where you think the Atlanta Falcons, New Orleans Saints, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Carolina Panthers will end up finishing in the standings.
After seeing what I've seen from each time thus far, I'm slightly revising my May predictions. I still think the Falcons win the division and win eleven games, and I still think the Saints are nipping at their heels the whole year. But I think the Panthers will ascend a bit and the Buccaneers suffer one more rough year before turning on the jets going into 2013 and beyond.
Here's mine. What's yours?
Falcons: 11-5
Saints: 10-6
Panthers: 9-7
Buccaneers: 6-10
