Greg, if Houston can get their act together, 30 to 1 is not a bad bet especially if Arian Foster tears it up again this year as everyone expects now.

I also like Denver 125 to 1 for a long shot with Tebow most likely being their number 1 QB next year. What will their running back situation look like though?

I was gonna say Houston too.

The year of the Texans! I can't buy it. You can't win with that horrid of a secondary, no way. Waste of money IMO.

I'd be more tempted to waste it on Oakland. Sweeping the west is no small accomplishment.

Very good point Scott, if they can shore up their defense though they have a shot...

I kind of like the Bucs at those odds.

I love the Bears at 15 to 1. Green Bay certainly deserves to be the favorite so no argument there.

And on the flip side, if Cincinnati wins next year's Super Bowl....I'll eat my computer keyboard.

Here's another vote for Tampa @ 50-1
