7 weeks into the season and we are the most consistent, most balanced and, thus, best team in the NFC. A LOT CAN CHANGE in 10 weeks before the playoffs, but our match ups are a problem for the entire NFL. No one has come close to stopping our offense. We march up and down the field every game like the methodical Aikman teams from the 1990s. Our defense has been very sound.
But if nothing changes between now and the Superbowl, the Patriots are the only team that stands in our way in my opinion. Denver doesn't have a QB good enough to repeat. The Raiders I doubt are good enough to beat the Patriots, although they deserve to from the "tuck" disaster that went against them. Pittsburgh goes as far as Big Ben's knee.
So, 7 weeks in and things are shaping up great. We HAVE TO get home field in the playoffs. It all begins there.
