As far as "running" teams go, most have been mentioned.
San Diego - currently home to LaDanien Tomlinson, single season TD record holder and most "complete" back in NFL. However, SD just can't seem to manage any consistancy or live up to expectations.
Minnesota - Adrian Peterson aka "Purple Jesus", and Steve "I made Shaun Alexander good" Hutchinson. They'll either take the NFC by storm or just become the Chargers of the NFC.
Pittsburgh - Historically, a run-based, ball-control offense. Unfortunately, their new Offensive Coordinator was the first to nominate Ben Roethlisberger to the "Fuck It, I'm Goin' Deep" fanclub. Their RB, Willie Parker, broke his leg last season, and they face one of the toughest schedules this season.
Jacksonville - They beat the snot out of the #1 ranked run defense not once, but *twice* last season. Unfortunately, they're stuck in the Colts' and Patriots' shadow.
Washington - Clinton Portis puts up great numbers, however, the team finds itself in the most competitive division in the NFL.
Baltimore - They've had no passing offense for so long, they're basically a running team. Think Pittsburgh with a losing record.
Denver - Another traditonally running-based team. About the same level as Atlanta.
Atlanta - Consistantly runs well, but doesn't do much else besides that.
San Fransisco - Great running back in Frank Gore, but he gets no help from anyone else on his team. Underdog of underdog teams.
