Every year it happens. Teams that look unbeatable in the first quarter of the season go through slumps, and teams that look beatable early get better. It's a crap shoot. Which is why you just want to stay in striking distance until after Thanksgiving.
The road ahead for us is bumpy enough that we might not even be able to do that, but if we can, I do like our chances in the NFC. No dominant teams yet, our offense is genuinely good, and we're now getting edge pressure, at least. And we have a 3 tech and a couple of cover CBs If the young secondary gets better late with experience and all the LBs can stay healthy, I like our chances of playing well as a team at the end of the year.
It took the Chargers defense 5-6 games to even start showing up, and they're one of the most talented defenses in the league.
