South:
Tampa Bay: An exp. QB, depth at the skill positions, decent line. If
Kaleo misses any length of time then flip flop the Storm w/Georgia.

Georgia: A decent team that's filled some of holes that were made by
players leaving when they moved from Nashville.

Orlando: Have reloaded with lots of NFL talent but they could take
time to adjust. Hurt by not having Gruden to start the season, and
when he gets back he may be drained from the Superbowl.

Carolina: Broke up a good nucleus of players and replaced them with
af2 guys. Hope they don't scare away too many Charlotte fans to start
the season. May be surprisingly competetive by the end of the season
as the players adjust to the big leagues.

East:
Las Vegas: Core of a good team coming back this year in a division
that may be worse than last year. Weak division and the Vegas
distraction helps this team

New York: Will have Garcia for the whole year this year but will to
improve on defense to challenge LV or for a playoff spot. Might be
pushed by Detroit .

Detroit: As bad as they were last year they may still have been the
best team in the city . Added Kelly and Carpenter, but lost Truluck.
Will be close to New York this year.

Buffalo: Team that underachieved last year won't do much better this
year.

Central:
Chicago:I know I'm biased but Chicago won the division last year and
have improved sense then. Derricks adds another playmaker and can
play DS and is electrifying with the ball in his hands. Salibury can
push Dicken for his job. McMillen adds a good player who knows what
it takes to win.

Grand Rapids: Not far off from Chicago. Have arguavly the best QB in
the league and are solid at almost every position. The Grand Rapids-
Chicago Rivalry should continue to grow this year and may be the best
someday. It has a David v/s Goliath feel to it.

Dallas: Also not far off from Chicago, and they also have a good
rivalry going. The key is whether they'll move in Chicago's direction
in their 2nd year, or take a downturn towards Detroit. I don't see
that happening, but how they replace Kelly will be key.

Indiana:An aging team that is going with the QB they benched last
year though a rebound season out of Philyaw wouldn't surprise me.
This team would take 1st or 2nd in the South or East divisions, and I
wouldn't be surprised if they made the playoffs.

West:
San Jose: Almost everybody from last years team is returning and they
are poised at another arenabowl run. Clevan thomas may be the best DS
in the league, and grieb runs arguably the best offense in the
league.

Arizona: a older team, they are the Raiders of the AFL. Still hungry
to again prove themselves as an AFL power after the beating they took
in the Arenabowl. Thjey will make it close in the division and
contend for the arenabowl again.

Los Angeles: Could challenge the Rattlers for 2nd in the division,
this team has slowly built itself from mediocrity and has turned
itself into a legitament threat. Have the best WRLB in the league.

Colorado: As good as the past three teams (Chicago, Detroit, and
Dallas) were when they entered the league, they have a proven QB,
good FBLB, and talented receivers. The weak spot will the line.
Playing in a tough division they may not make the playoffs, but will
be better than their record will show.

Overall:
San Jose
Chicago
Arizona
Grand Rapids
Las Vegas
Los Angeles
Tampa Bay

New York
Georgia

Arenabowl 17: Chicago @ (San Jose) 71-67 OT-
Chicago will push this team to it's limits and i think they will win
the regular season game in Chicago but until Chicago proves it can
win big road games San Jose (regretfully) gets the nod at home.
