A few dumb plays away from finally escaping the first round, but Cincinnati looks to continue their upward trend. You have to wonder, can Marvin Lewis survive another one-and-done in the playoffs? Can he survive his own locker room?. (0-0). Previous: 6th. Cincinnati Bengals. 5. team. 56

Previous: 2nd. Carolina Panthers. 4. team. 87. The biggest question for this team is, can they continue on after the beat down they suffered in the Super Bowl? Are they the team to beat in the South, or was the demoralizing loss something that will resonate for months to come.. (0-0)

3. team. 55. The Steelers look to be back in the groove of things with players coming back from injury (but others suspended for the season). If the only missing pieces are now back on the roster, look out. However, future planning needs to start soon, Ben can’t play forever with the beating he takes.. (0-0). Previous: 5th. Pittsburgh Steelers

The Arizona Cardinals will need to address a few positions, but the core offensive weapons and defensive front are all the same, or have improved. Can the team improve its cover ability and find a cornerback to play opposite Patrick Peterson, and did Kiem strike again in the draft? Only time will tell.. (0-0). Previous: 1st. Arizona Cardinals. 2. team. 32

New England Patriots. 1. team. 47. The Patriots are going to have a rough start to the season in any regard, whether it is a distraction of the ongoing Deflate-gate case, or Tom Brady actually sitting out for 2, 3 or 4 games. They can recover, but they have to win games without Brady at the helm.. (0-0). Previous: 3rd
