Giants lead the league in sacks next season? I'll still go with the Cowboys, though I'm sure the Giants will be up there. It has more to do with the Cowboys' defensive scheme than it does them actually being better pass-rushers, though. |

I believe that list is as compiled by fans on NFL.com. "They" don't have them ranked anywhere. Fans, however, have determined that ranking. OK, that makes a little more sense, since most fans are jackasses. |

It has more to do with the Cowboys' defensive scheme than it does them actually being better pass-rushers, though. *Blitz Demarcus Ware* Repeat times every down. You never know, especially with the depth they have at the line. Tuck.Osi can account for around 13-14 sacks each. Kiwanuka can get around 8. Robbins, when healthy, is an absolute monster. He head like 4 sacks in 8 games before he broke his hands.Then you add in Cofield, Alford, Canty and Bernard, and that's a large amount of sacks from the D-Line alone. Then you add in Boley, whose really fast, and the rookie Clint Sintim, who was like a hybrid LB pass rusher out of Virginia. We;ll see. I'm most excited to see Kenny Phillips, the Strong Safety, play. The kid's going to be a MONSTER hitter, but he's fast as hell. |

Yeah, exactly; without Ware, the Cowboys wouldn't even be GOOD pass-rushers, let alone the best pass-rushers.
3-4 defenses just generally yield more sacks.

Well even then, Ware's going to account like 20 sacks (just a prediction, he could have 4 or he could have 38), who else is going to provide a good pass rush on that team? |

Bradie James, Jay Ratliff, any player who plays opposite of Ware. |

Calvin Pace of the Jets has been suspended for PED. What a moron. And why do all these guys claim they took something over the counter that must have had "something slipped in it." Yeah.....like Belichik snuck into his home and slipped it into his GNC. Give me a break!
I guess with Pace down, we get to see how much of a bum Gholston is gonna be. Dude couldnt even get on the field last year for clean up duties.

CRAZY GUESS ALERT: The Pats will be voted #1.
Going out on a limb, I know. Anyone see the footage of Cris Carter at the Rookie Symposium?

CRAZY GUESS ALERT: The Pats will be voted #1. I really don't know. I mean, the Pats are great and probably should be ranked there, but I wouldn't think they have as big a fan base as say, Dallas or Pittsburgh (and don't even start on the "It's just because you're a Steelers fan". Everyone knows the Steelers have one of the biggest fanbases in the entire NFL.) And since this is a fan voted rank list...ya. |

If I weren't a Steelers fan, I probably would have just said the Cowboys. Anyways, how long you think Dante's suspension will last? Entire season? Just a couple games? |

It's not like the Steelers shouldn't be number 1 anyways. They won the Superbowl. They're the best team in football going into this season.
There's no "ifs" about it.
Stallworth is probably going to get suspended for the entire season, I think.
