(besides maybe Arizona, and even they could very easily beat us.)
1. Bucs..........#1 defense in the league
2. Rams..........pretty damn good team under the dome
3. Cards.........not a hateful defense and could give us trouble
4. Eagles........they are still the NFC champions until I see the wheels come totally off!

I actually agree completely. That's where the whole "Any Given Sunday" thing comes in. Even with the 49ers I wasn't SURE about us beating them. Every week I'm concerned we could lose home or away. Since the NFL is a bunch of professionals, you don't doubt the talent. What you bet on is how much of that talent will be used by that team on Sunday. If the 49ers played 100% of their potential when they played us, we would have lost. This is where coaches like Gibbs come in. He helps people to realize their potential. Our defense is a perfect example. Who knew Ryan Clark before last year? Nobody. And who was that guy for the Chiefs that sacked us a thousand times? I bet no one heard of him before that game. Anybody can beat anybody in this league. I just like to sit back and enjoy the ride.
