Welcome to the Frontpage

NFC North

Chicago (11-5)
Detroit (10-6)
Green Bay (4-12)
Minnesota (2-14)

Detroits always talk of the town and with good reason, they have won two CyberBowl's back to back, while appearing in two more, one being easily the best game in league history (last seasons Bowl). Krumrie is still at QB, Johnson is still at WR, the guy cleaning your car windscreen is the featured RB this season and the defence is still as fearsome as ever.

But their not #1 now.

Say hello to the Chicago Bears, the Monsters of Midway are back and here to stay! Featuring 15 #1 picks, including overall #1's Siddiqui, Madison and Coffman they are stacked with talent. The key is QB Madison, still labled a bust to some, he must lead them to the promised land and defeat all evil in their path. Is it win or bust this season?

That leaves the Vikings and Packers. The Vikes, once a powerhouse in seasons past have turned into a mid table team, possessing formidable playmakers mixed with bad defence, or vice-versa. There is still alot of talent here but not enough to topple both Chicago and Detroit and with no owner, they will struggle to mentain it. Finally the Packers have come close a few times but with their long time owner also gone, their immediate future looks grim. They are an old team and will soon fade away.

NFC South

Carolina (9-7)
Tampa Bay (7-9)
Los Angeles (7-9)
New Orleans (6-10)

Atlanta was nuked by the Russians one morning, so the team was forced to relocate to LA. The spirit of Al Davis is said to be haunting the Dragons new stadium.

With Tampa Bay having a new owner, this division should be ultra tight and hopefully not in a 'nobody wants to win this division' kinda way. If the Bucs QB can stop throwing picks then they could take it but Carolina, New Orleans and LA feature steady to impressive QB's of their own. All four teams could win it here but I'm going with the Panthers, as I'm fed up seeing my horse (the Saints) being shot in the stalls for not moving.

NFC East

New York (9-7)
Philadelphia (8-8)
Washington (8-8)
Dallas (3-13)

Long time GM ace leaves the Eagles on the cusp of greatness but will it be a new dawn in Philly or more of the same? Rumours of QB problems giving the new GM headaches. Anyone capable of throwing a football is invited to an open camp event, check press for details. Players capable of catching the ball will be attending an event outside of Philly in the hopes of being granted a trade to a team with a settled QB.

New York have been steady Eddie types for years but never really hit the next level. Once again a powerful 1-2 punch at RB will determine their sucess this season. The Giants GM was unavailable for comment as he was addressing the fans in New Giants Stadium.

Washington have started to rebuild (or is it retool?), with another QB highly drafted. Can Tatum succeed where Gass and McManus couldn't? They will win some games but the division might be slightly out of reach this year.

Finally we come to Dallas and now I'm here I want to leave already. They suck and have done so for quite a long time, with no GM at present they will prop up the basement. At least they have a proper WR to throw the ball to in 1st round pick Cinkovsky, whose name fits their sinking chances of victory.

NFC West

Seattle (11-5)
San Francisco (10-6)
Arizona (9-7)
St Louis (4-12)

The 49ers continue to win games with guys in their 40's and those out of football for two years minimum. Doesn't matter, they still have 'Golden Boy'* Alex Smith throwing the ball around 600 times a season. They are excited about their rookie RB Baek as he fits their offence like former star McGregor did back in the pre war era. If Smith stays healthy, they can win its as simple as that.

Now the Seahawks are nearing the horrible edge of being in their prime and starting to be too old. Their studs Bear and Shepard window of opportunity is shrinking and each season of failed expectations hurt even more. Is this _really_ their year? I would say yes - too much talent to think otherwise, hard luck and injuries are their mortal enemies.

Arizona have WR Perry Cochrane.

Finally, the Rams are without GM as well and thats a shame as they have the best QB nobody really mentions in Edgar Blair.

Its Empire vs Rebels for Bowl bid, with the Rebels finally making it!

AFC North

Pittsburgh (11-5)
Baltimore (10-6)
Cleveland (5-11)
Cincinnati (2-14)

It seems every two seasons the Ravens take this division, so is this 'their year' this season? Prior to camp I was confident of reclaiming the crown but now I'm not so sure, I think its the Steelers turn to win it. The Bengals finishing last is almost a certainty, at least at time of print and if QB Leinart isn't leading them. Only Cleveland has seen a GM change.

AFC South

Houston (10-6)
Indianapolis (9-7)
Tennessee (8-8)
Jacksonville (3-13)

Its been Houston, Tennessee and Jacksonville slugging it out for a good few years now, with the poor Colts in the basement. I still see Houston winning the division this season but its going to be the upstart kids in Indianapolis that will push them as runners up.
The Jags see a new GM in charge and might look to break up the team some more or will he try to figure out who's his #1 QB, Watson or Sanford? The Titans fortunes depend on their very busy GM, they could easily finish #1-3 here.

AFC East

Miami (9-7)
Buffalo (8-8)
New England (2-14)
New Jersey (2-14)

The weakest division in the AFC? Perhaps but last years winner Buffalo has been strangely abscent, Miami has an ownership change, the Jets have yet another GM and New England are rebuilding without a recognised QB.

AFC West

Denver (11-5)
San Diego (10-6)
Kansas City (6-10)
Oakland (4-12)

Its all change here too, with new faces at Oakland and rumour has it, Kansas City too. Denver have once again brought in 53 new players this off season (kidding!), so who knows what will happen here. San Diego have quite a few rising stars and should be firmly in the play off picture if they put the time in.


Denver vs Houston for the Cyberbowl AFC place with Houston winning.

Welcome to what we hope will be the first of many interviews with Seattle GM Thompson. In the last couple of days there have been a couple of trades as well as the drafting of a new WR, so let’s see what the GM has to say.

Seattle Times: Thanks for offering to spend some time with us today. You have been involved in a couple of interesting trades one that many people including ESPN’s Shefter that was a bad deal for the Seahawks. Can you explain to us why you made the move and your thoughts on it?
Thompson:  Thanks for the welcome. Yes we got busy making a couple of trades and Shefty decided we were the poor relations in both trades. He is good for a bit of fluff and I am sure he is enjoying the draft with Erin… but he is not running a team so doesn’t know the reasoning.
