Strange season forming

Yeah if anyone told me before the season that the Cardinals, Eagles and Bengals would be the only unbeaten teams after 3 weeks I would not have believed them.

If anyone would have told me that Malcolm Jenkins has 2 picks and our entire team has none, I wouldn't stop laughing.

Even if our pass rush isn't playing great, I've still not seen Byrd make a play, jump a route etc

Our pass rush in 2009 was weak, Sharper still managed to jump routes and make plays, grabbing 10 picks

Until he proves me otherwise, I think we massively overpaid for him, and the bills knew it

Cardinals and Bengals, yes; still not buying the Eagles...

If we get the Eagles again this season, we own them...

I don't know why people have been so dismissive of the Bengals. Everyone seemed to have that game marked of as an automatic win. I have them picked as a dark horse super bowl contender. While nobody was paying attention they put up some damn good numbers on offense last year and their defense is nothing to sneeze at either. They will destroy this defense if they don't improve.

I haven't heard anyone under-rate the Bengals. They are an excellent team. They won the North last year at 11-5. Might be the 2nd best team in the AFC.
