Can we get away from the self-serving "who is the best/worst__________" and talk football? Maybe some useful discussion:
How about game management?
How about the biggest mistakes teams make?
I will give you 2:
1)terrible clock management. There is an art to leaving the other team with no time. In this league, leaving a talented team with even a minute is crazy.
2)not using their linemen enough on offense.
Any takers? Or should we move on to "Which team has the loudest popping flags"?

Both are good points. The better teams take advantage of both (time mgmt and using ALL of their players). As teams mature, they seem to understand the art of using the lineman (at the right time). Time mgmt is even more of an issue when playing on 80 yard fields. It feels like your on an indoor field at times.
The other mistake teams make is not taking advantage of every possession. Turnovers will kill you. Every possession counts!

How about penalites? Man, those bad boys kill you when you have 20 yards to go for a first down. That`s why I have my team disciplined by administering 20 lashes per mistake they make. Torture, it`s the old school discipline.

Most qbs in this league can run...lines that let the qb break containment will get their defense killed every time.
And penalties, esp boneheaded ones!
