Vikings
Here are my top 5:
1) Giants - 2-0 even with all the injuries, their biggest question mark (WR) seems to be fine, when healthy easily a top 5 defense
2) Steelers - Out played the out of Chicago but found a way to lose. Gotta keep 'em here till I really see otherwise. The offensive line looked a lot better this week.
3) Ravens - The D is gonna need to get better, but the offense looks better than it's ever been during the Ray Lewis era. They've got some work to do in the secondary but they look better than they were last year.
4) Patriots - I'm not ready to drop them outa the top 5 yet until they lose 1-2 more games.
5) Jets - Yup, the in Jets. By far the best defense in the NFL through 2 weeks, a rookie QB who knows his role, and an offense that can control the ball and keep the defense off the field plus get points when need be.
Vikings
+1, they will be great once they fix their secondary.
The Jets? Nah, kid has to prove he can win consistently in this league first. Their D is legit though.
Dark horse for me is the Falcons. Ryan has looked pretty damn good.
A D is a man on a motha in mission!
I think the Falcons and Jets are interchangeable as dark horses. One has an offense we know will be there with a defense that needs to prove itself, while the other has a defense we know will be there with an offense that needs to prove itself. It's a matter of opinion, but gimme da defense oriented team.
And the Saints need to be in the mix somewhere.
Brees' grasp of that offense is unreal right now. Their D looks to be improved, but hasn't really been tested yet.
Ravens, D will get better as the season goes along. Flacco is improving quite a bit also.
Your list is complete ...the Giants barely beat the Cowboys and Romo sucked ass. Saints are a top 5 team...no one can score more than them![]()
If Mark Sanchez playes good next week, I'm going to all over his pictures.
Come on now, we all know that has happened multiple times already.
The Giants barely beat the Cowboys when they were missing half their in defense......keep in mind also the Cowboys are a good (not great) team.
Lol
He's way outplayed my expectations, though. I said the Lions should have drafted him. Obviously the Lions wouldn't make him look nearly this good but still. Lions should have went Monroe.
Um.....they're 0-2.....
+1
Before you find your franchise QB you need to make sure his blind side is protected.
Sanchez wouldn't have done any better in Detroit.
Stafford is trying to do too much. He's going to struggle early because he doesn't have what Sanchez has; a running game, good D and a rock solid OL.
If Stafford's going to amount to anything, then these early struggles will only make him better later on.
Why go Monroe #1 when you can draft Stafford and Oher at #20? Wait, there's a TE on the board?
ing idiots.
How is Pettigrew doing? I always side with going LT to start a franchise. You have a much higher chance of succeeding at that pick when you do. Sure, sometimes you miss out on a player like Matt Ryan, but you also have Tim Couch and about a million other QB's to name. I think it's so much easier for a QB coming in when you already have the line established, obviously.
ty, but they're all going to look ty on a team that's lost 19 straight.
The point is that they could have had both in the first round instead of taking a blocking TE.
Plus, Monroe has knee issues. Too much of a medical risk at #1.
Pats in the top 5 when they pulled a win out of their ass against a pretty bad Bills team and looking like complete dog today does not compute. Not to metion their D (with or without Mayo) looks pretty pathetic.
There was also Jason Smith and Andre Smith to go with. Andre Smith is hurt, though.
