1. Washington (12-4)
Before fans get too giddy about prospects of a repeat, three of last four X-Bowl champs missed the playoffs the next year.
2. San Francisco (11-5)
Still need more playmakers to surround Nate Davis and Jamaal Charles in the offseason.
3. Kansas City (11-5)
Of course, most of the league would love to have a down year like this.
4. Pittsburgh (10-6)
Even if Chad Jackson leaves the Maulers are strong enough on both sides of the ball where they should still be a contender.
5. Detroit (9-6)
Who will the Mustangs be able to unload Vincent Jackson on and what will they bring back? Preferrably a high pick(s) and some LB depth.
6. Dallas (8-7)
With Santonio Holmes all but out the Lonestars should focus on the O-line.
7. Las Vegas (8-6)
Key for the Outlaws in 2011: avoid a slow start (3-5 in '08, 2-4 in '09 and '10)
8. Carolina (8-6)
For the Colonels in '11: stay healthy, and find a young NT to replace Grady Jackson.
9. Seattle (7-7)
Team came back and played well in the final two games after all looked lost. Now team needs to re-sign Thomas Howard and Rodrique Wright and figure out what they're doing on offense.
10. San Antonio (7-7)
Similar to Seattle, coming back and scoring a huge upset of Kansas City in week 15 can do a lot going forward for a team that seemed to lose confidence.
11. New York (7-7)
A good rebound for them as well to finish the year, now they need to figure out their tackle situation as well as their secondary.
12. Memphis (6-8)
Learning to win on the road (just 1-6 away from Beale Street) and closing out would help this team get back to cotending for a playoff spot. Oh, and keeping Steve Breaston and Brandon Myles wouldn't hurt.
13. Birmingham (6-8)
Other than the last-second win against Dallas, there wasn't really much to like about this team.
14. Orlando (4-10)
There's a long list of problem areas to take care of even if the Rage get Chad Jackson, Steve Breaston, or Santonio Holmes.
15. Chicago (2-12)
The good, the Enforcers look like they've finally got their QB. The bad, take your pick.
16. Los Angeles (1-13)
Take your pick here as well, the Xtreme are on the clock.
