Power Ranking Every NFL Offense, Post-Free Agency Edition

Week 1 of the 2011 NFL season is right around the corner, and it's time to start getting pumped up. 

After a near five-month lockout, football is back and it's back in a big way, thanks to the past few weeks of free agency.

With free agents signing left and right, teams are changing and so are their offenses. 

Here is a power ranking of every offense in the NFL.

32. Washington Redskins

No matter what talent the Washington Redskins surround their quarterbacks with in 2011, they are going to struggle offensively. 

Josh Beck and Rex Grossman are not NFL-quality starting quarterbacks and will be only average at best for the 'Skins. 

Rolling with Beck and Grossman as your two options for quarterback is practically begging to draft Andrew Luck first overall in 2012. 

31. Cincinnati Bengals

This year's Cincinnati Bengals offense is going to be completely different from a year ago—the only thing that is not changing is running back Cedric Benson. 

The Bengals will be without Chad Ochocinco, Terrell Owens and Carson Palmer in 2011; their three best players from last season. 

Cincinnati is going to have many offensive woes this year as they don't have a true starting quarterback and rookie wide receiver A.J. Green is being thrown right into the mix as the team's No. 1 wide receiver. 

30. Cleveland Browns

The Cleveland Browns may have Peyton Hillis, but that's just about the only offensive firepower that they have.

Cleveland will need to have Hillis carry the workload in 2011, as Colt McCoy isn't quite ready to be a solid NFL passer, especially with such a weak receiving corps. 

29. Carolina Panthers

Five years from now, Cam Newton and DeAngelo Williams could end up being quite the offensive duo, but Newton is simply not ready to compete at high levels in 2011. 

The Panthers have talent at wide receiver in Steve Smith and have a stellar running back tandem with Williams and Jonathan Stewart, but Newton still needs a lot of developing. 

28. Buffalo Bills

Ryan Fitzpatrick had a career year in 2010, as he tossed 23 touchdowns and accumulated 3,000 yards in passing, but he'll come back down to Earth this year. 

The Bills don't have strong rushing attack, unless C.J. Spiller can have a major turnaround after his poor rookie season, and they do not have too much talent in the receiving corps.

Buffalo is a below average football team with a very mediocre offense. 

27. San Francisco 49ers

2011 is going to be a very difficult and challenging year for first-year head coach Jim Harbaugh. 

The 49ers have a solid running back in Frank Gore, but do not have a true starting quarterback. 

San Francisco is ready to roll with Colin Kaepernick and Alex Smith as their top two quarterbacks, and neither are proven NFL starters. 

26. Miami Dolphins

The loss of Ronnie Brown and the likely loss of Ricky Williams is really going to stun the run-first Miami Dolphins offense.

Miami may have traded for Reggie Bush and drafted Daniel Thomas out of Kansas State, but neither are ready to match the production that the duo of Brown and Williams once did.

Also, the Dolphins need to find consistency out of their quarterback position, which means that Chad Henne needs to turn his career around before it's too late. 

25. Seattle Seahawks

The additions of Tarvaris Jackson and Sidney Rice will certainly help the Seattle Seahawks' offensive attack in 2011, but they wont be enough to turn this team's production around.

Jackson isn't a proven NFL starter—Rice is the only consistent wide receiver and the team has no true No. 1 running back. 

24. Tennessee Titans

The Tennessee Titans may have one of the NFL's top running backs in Chris Johnson, but he cannot score points by himself. 

The Titans did acquire quarterback Matt Hasselbeck, who will act as a bridge until rookie Jake Locker is ready, but he'll have to deal with an average offensive line and a mediocre receiving core. 

Tennessee's offense will be extremely mediocre in 2011.

23. St. Louis Rams

Sam Bradford showed promising signs during his rookie season, but I'm not too sure that he'll be ready to emerge as a solid NFL passer in 2011.

St. Louis did bring in a talented wide receiver by the name of Mike Sims-Walker, and his presence should help out Bradford's development as a passer.

The only bright spot in the Rams' offensive attack is their running back Steven Jackson—he is the only consistent offensive player and will be productive as long as he stays healthy. 

22. Jacksonville Jaguars

The loss of Mike Sims-Walker is really going to hurt the Jaguars offense this year.

Sims-Walker was the team's top receiver last year as he reeled in 43 balls and scored seven touchdowns and he will definitely be missed.

The only player who Jacksonville can consistently rely and depend upon is Maurice Jones-Drew. 

21. Arizona Cardinals

The addition of quarterback Kevin Kolb is definitely going to help out the Cardinals this year, but he can only produce at a high level as long as his offensive line protects him.

If the offensive line in 'Zona can protect Kolb and run block, then the Cardinals should have a solid, but shaky, offensive attack in 2011. 

20. Minnesota Vikings

The addition of Donovan McNabb is definitely a plus for the Vikings, but it's only a matter of McNabb producing at a high level, which is uncertain.

The Vikings had one of the league's best running backs in Adrian Peterson, but McNabb needs to turn back to his old self, or Minnesota will have scoring issues this season. 

19. Denver Broncos

The Denver Broncos may have a hard time scoring points this year, as they'll have to adjust to John Fox's scheme. 

Kyle Orton is definitely a solid passer and he has a nice, talented group of receivers, but the team needs to find consistency from its ground attack. 

18. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

2011 could be the year for Josh Freeman, as he'll have a legitimate shot at emerging into a top tier NFL quarterback.

The Buccaneers have a solid offensive attack, led by Freeman. Tampa Bay's only major issue is that they don't have any other dependable wide receivers besides Mike Williams. 

17. Detroit Lions

The Lions offense revolves around the health of Matthew Stafford—if he can stay healthy, which means if the offensive line can protect him, then Detroit is going to score a lot of points this season.

Stafford, Calvin Johnson, Mikel Leshoure and Jahvid Best should create a very dynamic scoring attack in 2011.

16. Chicago Bears

The Chicago Bears finally have a true No. 1 wide receiver in Roy Williams, as he was released by the Cowboys earlier this offseason and signed by the Bears.

Williams will likely have a big-year in 2011, as Jay Cutler will likely target him a lot. 

Not only has the Bears passing attack gotten better in Mike Martz's offensive system, but the addition of Marion Barber will definitely bolster the team's ground attack led by Matt Forte. 

15. New York Jets

If Mark Sanchez doesn't complete over 60 percent of his passes this season, then it's going to be a very rough year.

The Jets definitely have talent with Santonio Holmes and Plaxico Burress as the team's top two wide receivers. And for the team's rushing attack, LaDainian Tomlinson and Shonn Greene create quite the tandem, it's just a matter of Greene producing and Tomlinson not running out of gas towards the end of the season. 

14. Dallas Cowboys

Tony Romo is without a doubt a very productive quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys, but he needs to stay healthy this year. 

The Cowboys will face many challenges in 2011, especially with the losses of Marion Barber and Roy Williams, but the team has a lot of talent at their offensive positions and should prevail and put up big points this season. 

13. Oakland Raiders

The Oakland Raiders have an amazing rushing attack led by Darren McFadden, but they need to stabilize their passing attack in 2011. 

There's no doubt in my mind that the team's ground game will continue to flourish with first-year head coach Hue Jackson, but it's just a matter of Jason Campbell playing at a high level and producing like he should. 

12. Baltimore Ravens

The Baltimore Ravens offense is only going to get better in 2011, especially having Joe Flacco enter his second training camp with Anquan Boldin. 

Flacco-to-Boldin is definitely a dangerous combination, but not as dangerous as the threat that Ray Rice creates on the ground. 

11. Kansas City Chiefs

The Kansas City Chiefs are a very good offensive team. 

Matt Cassel will enter 2011 with a new wide receiver, rookie Jonathan Baldwin, and will have yet another year under his belt with Dwayne Bowe. 

The scariest aspect to Kansas City's game is their two-headed monster in the backfield, Jamaal Charles and Thomas Jones. 

10. New York Giants

There's no question that Eli Manning has a big arm, as he's accumulated 4,000 yards in each of the last two seasons—but the only thing holding back Manning and the Giants offense is turnovers and consistency. 

If Manning can throw less picks this year, then the Giants will emerge as a very productive offensive attack. 

9. Pittsburgh Steelers

Ben Roethlisberger and the Pittsburgh Steelers are a very productive offensive team, and should score some points this year. 

Last year the Steelers averaged 23.4 points-per-game, and that was with Big Ben missing four games—imagine how much better it will be when he plays all 16 in 2011. 

8. Atlanta Falcons

The Atlanta Falcons offense is going to be a force to be reckoned with this year.

Atlanta will be returning nearly all of its starters from 2010, but they'll also be adding rookie wide receiver Julio Jones, who will be a nice complimentary receiver to Roddy White. 

The Falcons have a solid passing attack led by Matt Ryan and a very productive rushing attack led by Michael Turner—all in all, they're going to score some points this year. 

7. Indianapolis Colts

The Colts did absolutely nothing to improve their offense from 2010, besides drafting offensive tackle Anthony Castonzo out of Boston College.

With that being said, Indy still will score a lot of points this year thanks to one of the league's best quarterbacks, Peyton Manning. 

6. Houston Texans

The Houston Texans have a very frightening offense led by quarterback Matt Schaub. 

Most of the time, Schaub is tossing the ball to Andre Johnson and the Texans' stellar receiving corps, and when he's not slinging the ball all across the field, he's then handing it off to Arian Foster, who ran for an amazing 1,616 yards in 2010.

This could be the year for the Texans to finally make the playoffs. 

5. Green Bay Packers

The Green Bay Packers may have won the Super Bowl last season, but that does not make them the league's top offense.

The Packers do have one of the league's best passers in Aaron Rodgers, which definitely turns this team's scoring attack into an elite.

Green Bay will also get a nice boost this season, with the return of Ryan Grant, who spent the majority of 2010 on injured reserve. 

4. San Diego Chargers

The San Diego Chargers ranked first in total offense last year and will be right at the top again in 2011.

Philip Rivers is well on his way as emerging into an elite quarterback and the only thing holding back the Chargers is getting production out of running back Ryan Matthews. 

3. New Orleans Saints

The New Orleans Saints have a chance at being completely dominating on the offensive side of the ball this year.

The addition of rookie Mark Ingram could simply stabilize the team's ground attack and turn this offense into a more balanced and dynamic group.

The thought of New Orleans' rushing attack being nearly as productive as its passing attack, is a scary thought.  

2. Philadelphia Eagles

The Philadelphia Eagles are going to score a lot and they're going to score often in 2011. 

Philly's high-flying offense led by Michael Vick will see major production out of wide receivers DeSean Jackson, Jeremy Maclin and out of running backs LeSean McCoy and Ronnie Brown. 

Watch out for the Eagles this year, they're going to run defenses into the ground. 

1. New England Patriots

The 2011 New England Patriots may not have a record-breaking season like the 2007 team did, but they'll be almost as dominant. 

Any team that has a quarterback like Tom Brady will score points. However, when you add in receivers like Wes Welker, Rob Gronkowski, Chad Ochocinco, Deion Branch and Aaron Hernandez, then this is when things start getting scary for opposing defenses. 

Not only will New England's passing attack be dominant, but the team's ground attack has a chance to emerge as a very dependable group.

The Patriots are going to score a lot of points in 2011.
