Seahawks and WIlson look very off right now. They are a couple plays away from being 2-4-1 or even 2-5. Stills dropped that wide open pass in the Lolphins game for a td etc they should have lost. I mean I guess winning teams find a way and all, and theyre talented but they just dont look the same as in the past.

They're missing Lynch in a big way too, Michael etc just dont take over games like Lynch did.

Good teams find ways to put together in the 2nd half of the season so still wait-and-see mode on Seattle. same for Oakland.

Our offense definitely looks off right now. Given our history I think we will figure it out in the 2nd half of the season and make a run. With Wilson being banged up and Rawls out our running game hasn't been there and it has cost us badly. I am hoping it improves when Rawls gets back, I think the team is saying not this week against the Bills but week after against the Pats.

Don't think the Eagles are that much ahead of the Wild Card pack (and it's huge in the NFC). But agreed that Dallas and Atlanta look like best in the NFC at the moment. Agree on NE and Denver, think next tier has Steelers (when Ben is healthy), Raiders, and Chiefs. Chargers offense good enough to beat anyone on any given day too.

I'd agree on Philly, coming into the season I expected anywhere from 7 to 9 wins, still feels like an 8-8 or 9-7 team. We don't have the offensive firepower to rank as an elite team, in my opinion.

We just too deep into the developmental stage still. They are doing better than I thought tho. There was only one game we played this year that was unwinnable. Really hoping Howie can make a trade today. Not sure how much a WR would help mid year, so it would be more for the future but I'd be all for Givihg it a try.

Had a crappy week this week, only 6 wins...oh well :)

and if brady continues his...ravaging? of defenses like the first 4 games he has played.. hands down mvp of league.

looking ahead to the playoffs the afc west might get the 2 wildcards......

Dunno bout that, Ryan also played @sea and @den and still performed pretty well.

Pats I know will get to play Denver, which will be fun to watch (that damn sure better be a primetime game).

And I mainly meant Ryan was killing the rest of the league with his efficiency stats (passer rating, QBR)..and Brady has so far taken those numbers that were beating the shit out of everyone else's and is beating the shit out of them.

I mean, right now Brady is on pace to just missing throwing for 4k yards (3,957)...in only 12 games. With 36 TD's and 0 picks. While completing over 73% of his passes.

Yeah but he played the Ohio teams, thats like taking candy from dirty babies.

This is true, and like you noted lets see how he does against Denver, but by any measure he's just destroying it. Obviously he's not going to throw 0 picks the whole year. At least...probably not.

I'd take Derek Carr, Julio Jones, or Ezekiel Elliot for MVP before Matt Ryan. He's thrown 2 game ending picks this year, brutal.

Zeke might have a chance if he rushes for over 2k. Problem there is everyone is always going to give the O line a lot of the credit. Although truthfully, they clearly would deserve some of it.
