Right now the Chiefs and the Eagles are leading the way at 4-1. The Chiefs just dont have that great QB to lead them when they are behind, so Im not convinced.
The Eagles barely beat the Giants at home, relying on a miraculous last second FG.
Everyone has warts and its too bad the Giants couldnt take advantage, like they were expected to. Theyve lost two more games than they shouldve. At 3-3, they would still be in the midst of the playoff race
Any given Sunday, as they say. On to Seattle and let's get a win.
If anything, this season is shaping out in favor of another Pats championship.

crazier things have happened. Not saying Giants will go on a crazy run of wins, but you are right, there aren't world beaters in the NFL this year. The Steelers got killed by the Jags, who lost to the Jets. The Jets nearly beat the Pats. The Falcons just blew a 17 point lead at home to Miami, who is not good.

It's a great thought...and I think the Giants will win some games. But they don't have the weapons on offense to go on an extended tear. 5-6 wins is probably the number.
Chiefs lost a close game. PIT needed a lucky bounce (or missed INT) for the winning TD. KC played much better than NE this year. They're younger. More explosive. I'd still bet on the Chiefs at this point.
An even more so of that fact, those teams put together a string of winning streaks build on nothing more then sheer momentum and regained confidence.
Just from my memory recollection the Chargers , the Titans , the Lions and the Dolphins all started the year off 1-4. 2 f those teams made it to the WC and the other 2 had a hard push to make the playoffs at 9-7.

I wouldn’t quibble with the notion that KC is a front runner right now but to me that speaks to how weak the NFL is at the top this season. Wouldn’t be surprised at all if yesterday was the trailer for the movie we’re going to see this January where someone goes in their house and beats them holding their Alex Smith led offense under 20 points. Limit the running game, put it on his shoulders, they lose an ugly low scoring affair. They could lead the nfl in scoring this season and I’d still be awaiting that dud of an effort in a big spot. Not to mention Andy Reid, while a great coach, has been prone to underwhelming January’s as a favorite
New England to me is still the most trustworthy stock to buy even though they look thoroughly vulnerable

Same here. KC is the best team in football in my view. Yesterday doesn't change that.
Not sold on Philly but they are definitely having a legit good season. I just don't see Wentz and that offense doing enough in January.
If anything, this season is shaping out in favor of another Pats championship.
I agree. If everybody is flawed, including NEP, you have to go with the team that knows how to win.
With a good OL, we'd have a great shot at a 3rd Ring for Eli.
However, watch out for Houston. Despite injuries on defensive side of the ball, they can score with Watson at QB...

I agree Houston can be dangerous. The AFC is wide open and they have the potential to be a player. Watson has been a breath of fresh air for that franchise. Ever since the Texans have entered the NFL they have been thoroughly boring and uninteresting to me even in seasons where they were decent. If they were on national TV it was an instant recipe for my interest level in the game to drop precipitously. Watson has changed that though. He has made them worth watching
