Who would have thunk it? these teams are currently trailing their divisions and fighting for 2 wildcard spots... The Pats have to win at least one of those three games to have a realistic shot at the playoffs.
Thats why its way too early to assume anything and way to early to declare anyone a favorite or class of the conference. Last week: The Broncos are the 07 Pats ad the Cowboys may go undefeated. Oooops
Agreed, stop listening to these pre and post game morons i.e. Collinsworth, Bettis, Sharpe etc., they decide the whole season outcome scenario every week.

The Pats going undefeated in '07 will be made to seem like it could happen any season now because it looked so easy at times. Blowouts, all-star rosters, and the greatest of great players will come and go, but that season will be special for a long, long time. I don't care what mediots say about the Broncos and Cowboys.
That's why statistics are useless right now. Nobody thinks Manning is going to get better, the Colts wont be right up the Titans ass for that division? Give me a break. It's not just this board, also the ******ed ass analysts who think 4 weeks is what the season's all about. The Giants were mediocre 3-2 at week 5 last year, they were fine. It's not how you start, but how you finish.
It is early but every game counts, my point was not that teams were doomed just pointing out that the whacky NFL system of parity really seems to be working this time.
