Anyone else having a difficult time getting a read on the NFL this year?
 
Besides the Saints, Patriots, and Green Bay, I'm having a hard time figuring out if teams are contenders or not. Ravens have looked good, but somewhat inconsistent. A ton of teams with winning records that look like they could just as easily be 0-4.

We will need to blow out our NFC opponents. Period. We lack AGGRESSIVE play on defense. We are good, but not AGGRESSIVELY good.

I happen to be watching the Ravens D dismantling the Jets. That's what I mean by aggressive.

The picture in the AFC is very muddled atm. Its somewhat clearer in the NFC. Gonna be a wild ride, buckle in and enjoy!

Dallas is unbeatable...

Well, once the NFL starts only playing 3 quarters per game!

Jeanpierre has a smart layout, I would change some of the wild cards. Taking a risk not listing Pittsburgh, very risky decision because no matter how thick the fog they always find their way down the stretch.

Also let's move to The NFC West why should we all go through all this stress in the South.

AFC

East - New England Patriots
North - Baltimore Ravens
South - Houston Texans
West - San Diego Chargers
Wild Card - Tennessee Titans
Wild Card - New York Jets xx Oakland Raiders

NFC

East - New York Giants
North - Green Bay Packers
South - New Orleans Saints
West - San Francisco 49'ers
Wild Card - Detroit Lions xx Washington Redskins
Wild Card - Chicago Bears xx Atlanta Falcons

All I know is NFC is getting a lot better than the AFC. Colts and Steelers are down this year, the AFC wildcards will be a free-for-all. Yeah the NFC West is still weak, but NFC North and NFC South make up for it, and NFC East still has considerable talent.

Arsaint I just read your location are you the bunker two doors down from Benson.

Im starting to think the NFC South is looking pretty weak. After us there is a huge drop off.

Atlanta could just as easily be 0-4 and are a train wreck waiting to happen
Tampa looks like they are regressing and look to be 8-8 at best
Carolina will continue to struggle.

all of these teams will beat up on each other and push us pretty hard, as all records go out the window in divisional play, but I don't see any team winning many more games outside of the division

It's a QB-friendly league, and with Brees-Freeman-Ryan-Newton we've got a heck of a group in the South.
