Steelers have better O.
Ravens, better D.

I don't think either team are particularly better than each other.
If you forced my hand, I'd say Pittsburgh.
Though I will say, I'd rather have Flacco as my playoff QB than Roethlisberger.

Them bet hedges.

Flacco will have a new OC next year though, whereas Big Ben and Haley have finally struck a sweet note in their relationship that resulted in Ben putting up career best numbers last season

At this point i think it's really negligent to go into a season thinking you can rely on Ahmad Bradshaw. He can play when healthy but he's never around when you need him. I think they could really use someone like Moreno, and target a mid round guy to help spell him. Keep Boom Herron as 3rd back on the depth chart.

I also like TY and Moncrief but they need a possession reciever to help move the chains, those guys are big hitters, they are crying out for a Boldin, Edelman, Welker, Tate#2 possession type . No problems with their TE's they are both fantastic IMO.

Robert Mathis turns 34 this year so they need pass rush and i dont think id be banking on Newsome or Warner to be that every down game changer you need these days.

Yeh I know it's a big IF with Bradshaw, hence why I'd target a RB in free agency or in the 3rd/4th round, the LB core isn't league best but I don't think it's as pressing an issue as the D Line and O Line

At the moment i think Balt is a better team, and i think Steelers miss the Playoffs, and considering i like them most out of every other team that isn't named NE.

I See

NE,DEN,IND,BAL,BUF,HOU as the teams that come out of the AFC, saying that if Revis Walks from NE, they could easily miss out on the Playoffs. with Revis they are a 12-4 11-5 at worst team, without him 10-6 is probably the best they will get. That opens the door up for PIT

On me leaving the Lions out, If Suh walks, the Lions are gone for at least a year, there isn't an Aaron Donald in this draft that they can pick up.

Pats are 2 mil over the cap, they haven't got a hope in hell of keeping Revis, and we all know Revis demands top dollar

Well apparently they aren't over the cap anymore as Brady renegotiated his contract 6months ago...

They won't be able to take up the 20M option on Revis but they can offer him 10-12M which isn't too far off his market value...

And what about signing draft picks etc, there isn't a chance.

Bb has a history of not re signing expensive free agents, no chance Revis stays for 10 a year when he can get 14-16 on the open market

Revis has a ring and there are teams that will offer him the $20 million price tag he is after. He's a rental for the rest of his career, albeit an expensive one.

Den are a 10-6 team next season, at best. They'd be cannon fodder against the big guns in the playoffs and will be eliminated in the wild card round. For Manning there is no Chicago Bears/Rex Grossman to defeat in the Super Bowl. The NFC are much tougher these days.

It also remains to be seen how Manning adapts to a new O under Kubiak as he is not the bootleg type so the running game will be a much bigger focus for the Broncos in 2015.

Legend no chance he gets 20 mil at his age, but I think 14-16 is what he will be demanding, but I agree he will be a rental to sides willing to pay top dollar.

Also I think his manager is Eugene Parker too? If so look out

i wouldnt at all be surprised if the pats end up keeping him at 12mil though
