The NFC is off to a historic start

[AbeBeta]

Think the NFC East is also 7-1, with the only loss being a divisional game.

The Cardinals have played a huge role in that.

Speaking of NFC -AFC

Vikings are 0-2

Kirk Cousins is in last year of his contract. You really think Vikes want to break bank for him? No way. This is swan so g for Cousins.

I wouldn't be shocked if they lose 2 more....if the JETS try and trade for him. Is there a team more ready to win, only needing a CIMPETENT veteran Brad Johnson type QB than the Jets?

Get a 2nd now for Cousins.....or nothing later. Vikes aren't winning the SB this year anyway....

Cousin's score card will improve through the season...count on it.

Which is equivalent to a 3rd this year which they would sooner offer and if a 3rd this year is not good enough than a 2nd next year would not be.

Ok then a 1st in 2026.

Boom.

BOOM!!!!!!!

The move never made any sense. Watson had been out of football for a year, and the last time he played a full season he was 4-12. He’s never going to live up to what they paid him and traded for him. No team in the league has had worse luck at QB than the Browns.

Not only that, but he didn't even fit the Browns offense. The team goes through Chubb. They should have either drafted one or made a move for a QB like Winston. Someone to drive the bus and let the team go through Chubb.

Not a particularly meaningful stat this early. Washington, Atlanta and TB are all clearly not going to be relevant in terms of contention.

The NFC is a three team race, and behind that there’s really only a few other teams (Detroit, Seattle, NO and maybe LA/GB) who are even vaguely threatening. Everyone recognizes what Minnesota/NY are at this point, and everyone else has awful QB play.

Have to totally disagree with you on Jameis Winston. He’s an INT machine and no way was Cleveland going to win with him. They’ve spent years going through QBs like him. There’s a reason Tampa gave up on him. In one season, Brady won a Super Bowl with a lot of the same players Winston had. Now Cleveland is stuck without Nick Chubb. Watson would fit any offense if you design the offense around his skills. The problem is he’s not the player he was. He missed a full season due to real bad off the field issues that dragged him through the mud destroying his reputation. After all that time off he got sent packing to a team that has struggled to find a viable QB for over two decades.

Cleveland has been a graveyard for QBs. They haven’t had a real good one they can win with since Bernie Kosar. They need a lot more than a bus driver they need a productive winner. You’re not going to win a championship in this day and age with your offense revolving around an RB. Teams are moving on from good RBs because they’re not worth the money and your running game isn’t going to win a championship. The team with the top rusher last season didn’t even make the playoffs. Jonathan Taylor had over 1800 yards with Indy in 2021, but they ended up 9-8 and missing the playoffs because of their QB situation.

Sure I was just going off the top of my head. Either way the Browns needed someone who could just drive the bus.

Negative. The Jets still have their first round pick. Since the Rodgers injury, they lose two 2nd round picks in the trade.

They don’t have it in that they can’t trade it. You know Rodgers won’t hit that number and so do I but by rule they can’t trade that pick to someone else.

They need more than that with Nick Chubb done for the year and possibly his career. That was a gruesome knee injury he suffered on Sunday. It’s going to be real tough coming back from that, especially at his age.

NFC South is 6-2, and the two losses are CAR losing to division rivals.

I know that, I meant instead of trading for Watson. A rookie QB would've been better for them.

Rookie QBs haven’t worked. They’ve drafted two of them, Tim Couch and Baker Mayfield with the number one overall pick. They’ve gone through several first round picks with Johnny Manziel, Brady Quinn and Brandon Weeden. They drafted other QBs. They’ve tried veteran QBs and nothing has worked. Something with the Browns turns every QB into a pumpkin.
