this question was posed on nfl.com. I took the Rams and found out that somehow the 49ers is 40% of everbody's NFC sleepers. :eek:
what am I missing here...? :dunno:

I don't think I would consider the 49ers a sleeper team. To be a sleeper they have to be a team everybody thinks will do worse than they probably will do and a lot of people think the 49ers has a good chance to win their division.
A lot of people seem to pick the Cardinals every year and get burnt by them. Surprisingly if I had to pick the team with the potential to be a true sleeper team that outperforms everybody expectations on that list I would say Green Bay has the best chance.
I think Jacksonville has the best chance to improve upon their record from last year out of all teams in the league. They were better than they showed a year ago.

I don't see 49ers close to the playoffs this year. They have players but they have to get through the Rams and the Seahawks. The Rams are such a sleeper pick for me that I give them a shot to make the NFC Championship...
that sounds farfetched but that's why they're my sleeper.
Green Bay is a true sleeper as well, because that North is unpredictable to me. I don't see the Bears dominating with the most unpredictable player in the NFL as their QB once again.
As for J'ville, I want Leftwich to continue to develop but their only chance for a wildcard this year is Dave Garrard.
not for me... they don't even have a QB. Though I like Braylon Edwards.
as for the poll... it was for NFC teams only
The 49ers are coming together and the nfc is weak so they have a chance to make the playoffs.....

Oh well in that case I gotta go with the Cardinals or the Niners.I would say the Lions because of their potential Offense but they don't have a defense to help them out
they are young,have a great core of offensive players,alex smith,frank gore,vernon davis and their defense (although they gave up 31 to chicago yesterday) is going to be the real deal.
i would say the rams are # 2 they have the offense to do it.

I voted for the Rams but, after last night, I might be encouraged to take the HOUSTON TEXANS.

The Lions...hahahahaha.... the Lions. That's rich. The Lions
Oh yeah I went with the 'Niners
Oh yeah I went with the 'Niners
i didn't even read the story yet but I know you're going to talk about Jacoby Jones and Matt Schaub. Don't be fooled man... the Cowboys are not a good team *coach phillips* and the Texans front 4 is a joke :1orglaugh
plus I still root for the oilers/titans :tongue:
so what's your standings in the West... i'm so anxious to here this.
I got:
1) Rams
2) Seahawks
3) 49ers
4) Cardinals
and noboby gets a wildcard
1st alex smith must step his play up or they'll be in the top 10 of the 2008 draft.
and their youth is the reason why ima sleep on them. NO division. NO wildcard. I put that on everything.

The key phrase in this post is "plus I still root for the oilers/titans".
I beg to differ on both points you made:
1) I am not a Cowboys fan in the slightest, but if you think they are not a good team you are totally mistaken. They are one of the best, if not the best, teams in the NFC. Look me up in December and we'll compare notes then.
2) The Texans front 4 is not the greatest for sure, but I am seeing some real signs of significant improvement. Zgonina is really going to hep solidify this unit and Babin seems to be finally beginning to show why they drafted him in the first place. Okoye is going to be a terrific run-stopper as he showed last night .If you really did your homework, you'd know that the Texans' secondary is the weakest unit on the team, not the defensive line.
the Texans defense is weak all around minus D. Ryans. Now I live in the heart of Houston, Tx and all we get is sorry ass Texans games every week, so I also know the book on the Texans.
Okoye has been a big surprise but as for the Cowboys... they will make the playoffs due to the minor league of football that is the NFC. But that doesn't make them a good team. They had a major setback when they let go of Coach Parcells but it was inevitable because of Jerry Jones.
Without Parcells, Romo won't focus as much because he thinks he's the shit now. The team won't be disciplined enough to stride through the playoffs. They won't get no further than they got last year. YEP One and Done.
