About playoffs ,there are multiple questions to ponder

Will Tim Tebow jersey be the starting QB in Denver?

Not right away. Head coach Josh McDaniels will open the season with Kyle Orton as his starter, but c'mon, you don't trade away a ton of picks to move up in the first round to take a quarterback with the No. 25 pick if you don't plan on playing him.

There are all kinds of questions as to whether the former Heisman Trophy winner can make a successful transition to the pro game, however. I think Tebow will figure it all out in time, but McDaniels had better be certain that he doesn't rush Tebow into the starting job. That could kill both men's careers.

How long before the Redskins have enough of Haynesworth?

They're already fed up with disruptive defensive lineman Albert Haynesworth, whose mega-rich contract, lack of production and attitude might ultimately make him the biggest free-agent bust in history. Head coach Mike Shanahan is sick of him and probably can't wait to cut him loose.

But I think the team will try to play nice long enough to get through this season, then try to move him or more likely, work out a salary buyout and cut him loose. Whatever happens, the divorce will get ugly.

Will Brett Favre's return be for naught?

Maybe. The Minnesota Vikings jersey were hit with horrible news Monday when top receiver Sidney Rice underwent hip surgery and will be lost for up to half the season. With fellow receiver Percy Harvin battling severe migraines and collapsing in practice a week ago, Favre could be in danger of losing his two favorite targets.

Minnesota picked up free agent Javon Walker, a former teammate of Favre's in Green Bay, but can he fill the void? Favre might have to relinquish some of his power and control over the offense and let Adrian Peterson help carry him back to the postseason.

 Will the Texans finally make the playoffs?

Probably not. They might get awfully close, though, like they did last year when they finished with their first winning season (9-7). You have to like their passing game, featuring Matt Schaub (who threw for an NFL-leading 4,770 yards in 2009) and acrobatic receiver Andre Johnson. The defense has its share of stars, too.

But the thing that's always concerned me is Houston's lack of a proven running game. For whatever reason, the wholesale Texans jersey have never really made it a priority to find an elite running back and until they do, they just won't have the balance to break through and reach the postseason.

Can the Raiders jersey find a reversal of fortune?

They have a decent chance. This franchise has teetered on the brink of obscurity for the past several years, failing to win more than five games in any season since 2002. More times than not, the Raiders have been looked at as a joke.

But I can see them having at least a .500 season, possibly better. The AFC West is weak and they had themselves a very productive off-season, especially by upgrading their run defense. But most of all, they did the right thing by releasing former No. 1 overall pick JaMarcus Russell and bringing in Jason Campbell.
