If you throw out the Packers and Patriots for being too good and teams like the Seahawks and Dolphins for being bad, every other team in this league is even. It all comes down to a couple of factors such as turnovers, speacil teams, pentalies, and if a few players decide to take a week off to name a few. Look around the league yesterday. Carliona was giving the BEars all they could handel. The Bengals beat the Bills. The Seahawks and Jaguars put up fights against the Falcons and Saints. Arizona should of beaten the Giants and SF upset Philly.

Let's not kid ourselves we should be 2-2. We are entirely backwards. We should had won the Jets and Lion games and lost the 49ers and Commander ones. Just think if Jimmy Harabaugh takes those points off the board and runs another 2-3minutes off that clock in SF or if Jimmy Haslett doesn't blitz on 3rd and 21, we will be looking at 0-4. We are soooooooooooooooo close to 0-4. We are soooooooooooooooo close to 4-0. We will probably beat NE and lose to the Rams. My point being is you do not know what your going to get week by week and I can't figure this team out.
 
I can't figure them out either and I'm not going to try anymore. If they win, great.... if they lose, oh well.... maybe next week. :p:

...come in here and talk common sense like that? It'll get you NO where in here: just no place for it my friend.;)
 
The Patriots are too good. They just blew a 21-point lead last week.
 
Not uncommon to have a crazy start to the NFL season. Around the mid way point things will start to get clearer.

Interestingly, the Packers and Patriots are putting freaking numbers on offense. Both on pace to destroy many of the offensive records.

Usually I tend to think that the offensive numbers of teams like this will settle down and we won't see 5000+ Yard, 50 TD passers and receivers with 2000+ yards recieving... but I'm not sure sure this year with the Packers and Patriots

More interestingly, both of these teams have had absolutely awful defenses through 4 games. Patriots are giving up like 500 yard a game.

Packers, despite have 3 guys in defensive backfield rank in the NFL Top 100 Players, are on pace to have the 3rd worst pass defense in NFL history. This from a team that had one of the better pass defenses we've seen in many years last year.

Its a crazy year, statistically, in the NFL this season and the Packers and the Patriots are both prime examples of wacky the stats are.

I chalk a lot of it up to NFL push towards Arena-style pinball-like emphasis on wide-open passing.
 
But it is rare that you have a QB throwing games away like that in NFL.

I know I could not believe Tom Brady did that. To have Buffalo down like they did and and throw 4 ints

That just means we're going to beat New England. :D

First, as a QB, Tom brady is at a totally different level from our QB. Even if you want to compare two, how often does Tom Brady do this (give away games while leading 20+ points)? Our beloved QB has done twice already in the last four weeks.

Your right Brady is a vet savy QB who has helped his team to the SB, Yet even the great Brady has had games like the one he had vs Buffalo.

I don't think Romo is better than Brady few are but it does go to show even the best out there will have problems.

Brady has choked every year in the playoffs since his last superbowl.
