Scenes from NFL Training Camps

After their surprise Super Bowl run, Kurt Warner and Matt Leinart look to build on last season's success.

Atlanta Falcons

With Matt Ryan under center for his sophomore season, the Falcons look to notch back-to-back winning seasons for the first time in franchise history.

Baltimore Ravens

With Derrick Mason back from retirement and coming off an 11-5 campaign, the Ravens look poised for another deep run.

Buffalo Bills

After a fast start last season, the Bills sputtered to a 7-9 record. The acquisition of Terrell Owens all but ensures Buffalo of a more exciting season this time around.

Carolina Panthers

Jake Delhomme guided the Panthers to a 12-4 record last season before tossing five INTs in Carolina's NFC Championship Game loss.

Chicago Bears

After pulling off one of the biggest swaps in recent history, the Bears head into this season with Jay Cutler at the helm and a new focus on offense.

Cincinnati Bengals

After opting to not undergo Tommy John Surgery, Carson Palmer said he's back to 100 percent heading into the season.

Cleveland Browns

With Derek Anderson and Brady Quinn both back at quarterback, the Browns look to bounce back from a 4-12 campaign.

Dallas Cowboys

After narrowly missing the playoffs last season, the Cowboys head into the '09 campaign without the distraction of T.O.

Denver Broncos

Kyle Orton takes over for Jay Cutler as the Broncos try to bounce back in the first season of the post-Mike Shanahan era.

Detroit Lions

The only direction for the Lions to go is up after last season's 0-16 disaster.

Quarterback controversies a distant memory, Aaron Rodgers and the Packers have a lot of work to do after dropping seven of their last nine games a season ago.

Houston Texans

Matt Shaub and the Texans look to continue an upward trend after posting a surprising 8-8 record last year.

Indianapolis Colts

Coming off his ninth 4,000-yard season, Peyton Manning tries to lead the Colts back to the Super Bowl again.

Jacksonville Jaguars

Jacksonville dropped eight of its last ten a year ago, but David Garrard played well enough to hang onto his starting job.

Kansas City Chiefs

With Matt Cassel at the helm, the Chiefs may have the fire power to bounce back from last year's 2-14 season.

Miami Dolphins

The Dolphins aim to prove last season's AFC East title wasn't a fluke.

New England Patroits

Tom Brady's back, and ready to lead the Pats back to the playoffs.

New York Giants

The distraction of Plaxico gone, Eli Manning and the Giants look to recapture the form that saw them rolling early last season.

New York Jets

With Brett Favre out of the picture and Mark Sanchez waiting in the wings, Kellen Clemens aims to leave his mark on the Jets.

Oakland Raiders

With a crowded backfield and the addition of Jeff Garcia, Raiders camp could see some battles.

Philadelphia Eagles

Kevin Kolb spelled Donovan McNabb on a couple of occasions last season, but after No. 5 led the Eagles to the NFC Championship Game, there shouldn't be any QB controversy in Philly.

Pittsburgh Steelers

After another Super Bowl win, Big Ben glad hands in Pittsburgh.

San Diego Chargers

After sneaking into the playoffs with an 8-8 record, the Chargers look to build on the momentum of their late-season run.
