Over the last four years, there have been four different Super Bowl winners, all of them first-timers: St. Louis, Baltimore, New England and Tampa Bay. This tells me that there is a very good chance we will have a new winner next season, and it could possibly be a team that has not won before.

So let's start thinking about some teams that fit this category. Atlanta, Cleveland, Indianapolis, New Orleans, Philadelphia and Tennessee have yet to win a Super Bowl, and should have good teams next year capable of going to Super Bowl XXXVIII. Of these six teams, Atlanta and Indianapolis are in the best shape cap-wise for the upcoming season (the cap is projected to be around $75 million).

We also had five new teams in the playoffs this year that were not there in 2001: Atlanta, Cleveland, Indianapolis, Tennessee and the New York Giants. I think we again could have five new teams in 2003, and here are some candidates: Buffalo, Miami, Minnesota, San Diego and Seattle. Regarding the Vikings, they have Michael Bennett , Randy Moss and Bryant McKinnie -- they have a pretty good offense. And they're $30 million under the cap.
